Someone told me to not use ItemModelMesher#register and use ModelLoader#CustomModelLocation instead. Though This made my resources break. They won't show at all.

}

public static void registerRender(Item item)
{

}
}

 

Idk if im implementing the function correctly, also I know my variable naming convention is not right, don't remind me I know.

First of all, do not call ModelLoader from common code (ModItems). It must be in your ClientProxy.

 

ModelLoader must be used in preInit, not init.

 

do you need it in client proxy for convention's sake or it will absolutely not work if I call it from ModItems?

 

Because in both cases it did not work. These are the changes I made.

public class ClientProxy extends CommonProxy{

@Override
public void init()
{
	renderAllItems();
}

public void renderAllItems()
{
	renderItem(ModItems.NoteBook);
}

public void renderItem(Item item)
{
	ModelLoader.setCustomModelResourceLocation(item, 0, new ModelResourceLocation(References.MOD_ID + ":" + item.getRegistryName(), null));
}
}

//registers all the Items.
public static void registerItems()

	register(NoteBook, "NoteBook");
}

public static void register(Item item,String string)
{
	GameRegistry.registerItem(item, string);
}

}

- Yes, it absolutely must be in your ClientProxy

- Why did you set the variant to "null"?

- getRegistryName already includes your modID, no need to prefix it again.

 

I was trying something before I came here. I'm not sure what variants (aside from blockstates) are and are used for. I thought that the item has no real variants of itself so I did that.

 

And I didn't knew that registryname included modID. thanks alot.
