Some Item Textures Will Render, Others Will Not

[Eighty8keyGuru]

Okay. This is my third time posting on this forum in two days. I feel soooooo dumb right now. I'm obviously new to modding.

 

I am using wuppy's book tutorial to learn to mod with 1.8 and eclipse. I have four custom items right now, which should turn into two items with two metadata tags (meaning, I have a "key" and an item called "sam," because I have "Grey Key" and "Red Key", then I have "Sam Dust" and "Sam Ingot.") My key textures both work fine in game, but I have tried doing the exact same thing with the samingots and samdust in the json, lang, and texture files (changing the appropriate names, of course), and I get nothing but purple-black cubes no matter what I try. Here's an example of my key and sam jsons.

 

keygrey.json

 

{

"parent": "builtin/generated",

"textures": {

"layer0": "nathantestmod:items/keygrey"

},

"display": {

"thirdperson": {

"rotation": [ -90, 0, 0 ],

"translation": [0, 1, -3 ],

"scale": [ 1.7, 1.7, 1.7 ]

}

}

}

 

The red key is the same as this, just with keyred in the layer0 line.

ingotsam.json

 

{

"parent": "builtin/generated",

"textures": {

"layer0": "nathantestmod:items/item.ingotsam"

},

"display": {

"thirdperson": {

"rotation": [ -90, 0, 0 ],

"translation": [0, 1, -3 ],

"scale": [ 1.7, 1.7, 1.7 ]

}

}

}

 

The sam dust file is the same as this with dustsam in the layer0.

 

The json files are all located in assets/nathantestmod/models/item

 

My texture files are named: keygrey.png, keyred.png, ingotsam.png, dustsam.png and are located in assets/nathantestmod/textures/items

 

The lang files I know are fine because the names of all four items are fine in game.

 

The coding to register all the items in the mod class is as follows:

 

@EventHandler

public void PostInit(FMLPostInitializationEvent event)

{

if(event.getSide() == Side.CLIENT)

{

RenderItem renderItem = Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderItem();

renderItem.getItemModelMesher().register(key,  0, new ModelResourceLocation(MODID + ":" + ((ItemKey) key).getNameFromDamage(0), "inventory"));

renderItem.getItemModelMesher().register(key,  1, new ModelResourceLocation(MODID + ":" + ((ItemKey) key).getNameFromDamage(1), "inventory"));

renderItem.getItemModelMesher().register(sam,  0, new ModelResourceLocation(MODID + ":" + ((ItemSamGeneric) sam).getNameFromDamage(0), "inventory"));

renderItem.getItemModelMesher().register(sam,  1, new ModelResourceLocation(MODID + ":" + ((ItemSamGeneric) sam).getNameFromDamage(1), "inventory"));

}

 

Sorry about my stupidity in modding. I'm just really slow to learn stuff like this and the tutorial is not as clear as I would like it to be. Thanks for any assistance.

item.ingotsam, is this period needed?
