I have a B3D model made in blender. It has no texture, it just has colors applied to the material / mesh, however, in-game it does not take effect. Here is my .JSON code and my model loading code.

 

JSON

{
    "forge_marker": 1,
    "variants": 
{
        "inventory": 
	{
            "model": "armed:m4.b3d",
            "transform": "forge:default-tool"
        }
    }
}

 

Loading

ModelLoaderRegistry.registerLoader(B3DLoader.instance);
		B3DLoader.instance.addDomain(MainReference.ID);
		ModelLoader.setCustomModelResourceLocation(MainInitialization.ITEMS.get("m4"), 0, 
				new ModelResourceLocation(MainReference.ID + ":" + "m4", "inventory"));

 

Does the B3DLoader not support this or do I have to do something in the .JSON to tell it to use the model's material colors? If anyone knows how this works and could tell me, I'd be appreciative.

I don't think that the loader supports Materials. But other than that, how did you made your b3d models work? My models still error with no root mesh in model location error. I tried everything in the json files, but i can't get it working.

In Blender you need to make sure you have one object that is named "mesh"

If you have multiple objects select all of them and press Ctrl+J to merge them.

Like this:

hm - ok...

Of course they support materials - that's what makes up a mesh and it's different features. What I meant to say was "colored materials." Guess I'll just have to use textures.

Minor correction:

Materials are a combination of things, the bit that "isn't supported" is likely the shader, which handles  how lighting affects the object (hint: Minecraft has no lights).
