So i have lemons that generate around the world. You break the bush, you get lemons. You then will place the lemons in a crafting grid anywhere and get lemon seeds to grow lemons.. I have managed to get lemons growing.. problem is it shows no texture(purple/black). I have the Json files correct i believe. I doubled checked them. I'll show my code, and post an image(s) of the texture in game so you can see what im talking about.

Json file for Block States. file is called lemon_seed.json

{
    "variants": {
        "age=0": { "model": "slurpiesdongles:lemon_seed_stage_0" },
        "age=1": { "model": "slurpiesdongles:lemon_seed_stage_1" },
        "age=2": { "model": "slurpiesdongles:lemon_seed_stage_2" },
        "age=3": { "model": "slurpiesdongles:lemon_seed_stage_3" },
        "age=4": { "model": "slurpiesdongles:lemon_seed_stage_4" },
        "age=5": { "model": "slurpiesdongles:lemon_seed_stage_5" },
        "age=6": { "model": "slurpiesdongles:lemon_seed_stage_6" },
        "age=7": { "model": "slurpiesdongles:lemon_seed_stage_7" }
    }
}

 

Json file for Models/Block. File names are as wheat are except, lemon_seed_stage_0 going all the way up to 7. Only showing code for stage 0 because it's all the same except the numbers change for each stage.

{
    "parent": "block/crop",
    "textures": {
        "crop": "slurpiesdongles:blocks/lemon_seed_stage_0"
    }
}

 

Json file for Models/Item. Name is lemon_seed.json

{
    "parent": "item/generated",
    "textures": {
        "layer0": "slurpiesdongles:items/lemon_seed"
}	
}

 

Lastly i have the stage's 0-7 textured and placed into the blocks folder named lemon_seed_stage_0, going up to 7. Also have the lemon_seed texture in the texture/items folder. Not sure what i've got wrong, or to make it not read the texture, or stages, but thanks for anyones help.

 

 

 

 

 

• Do not use the unlocalized name to determine the registry name.
  
• What does your

  registerRender

  do?
  

• Why are you still using

  GameRegistry.registerBlock

  ? It is deprecated.
  

• your blockstate json could probably be simplified a lot by using the forge blockstate format.
  

 

I know I still need to fix most of this stuff.

 

My registerRender does this.

public static void registerRender(Item item) {
        Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderItem().getItemModelMesher().register(item, 0, new ModelResourceLocation(Reference.MOD_ID + ":" + item.getUnlocalizedName().substring(5), "inventory"));
    

Use ModelLoader.setCustomModelResourceLocation instead. And again, do not use the unlocalized name like that.

 

will this fix my issue with the seeds not showing there textures when placed and grown?

No, that is an issue with the block models, not the item models.

 

okay. What do i need to change to fix the block models for the seeds to show up?

Oh, thank you that fixed the issue! Now could you explain above what you meant by the other things I needed to fix? You said something about my unlocalized name and was confused by what you mean.
