Posted July 19, 20169 yr I have a blockstate file: http://pastebin.com/raFBt3J3 The blockmodel works, but the item model doesn't. And it gives me an error like this: Caused by: java.io.FileNotFoundException: minecraft:models/block/item/ladder.json My question is: Why does the game look for the model in models/block/item when I told in the blockstate file to look in the "item" folder?
July 19, 20169 yr Models specified in blockstates files are always relative to assets/<domain>/models/block. Please don't PM me to ask for help. Asking your question in a public thread preserves it for people who are having the same problem in the future.
July 19, 20169 yr You also have to remember that Minecraft bases everything off items, not blocks. (Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe you can't create a block without an item for said block as well.) And that is because every block has to be able to go into an inventory (chest, furnace, hopper, character, etc.) That probably doesn't help any errors you are encountering but it is the best explanation I can give.

And that is because every block has to be able to go into an inventory (chest, furnace, hopper, character, etc.) That probably doesn't help any errors you are encountering but it is the best explanation I can give. This isn't the case. It's entirely possible to have a Block with no Item form (e.g. air, water and lava) or an Item that isn't a standard ItemBlock (e.g. cake, sugar cane). If a Block has no Item form, it simply can't exist in inventories. Please don't PM me to ask for help.

July 19, 20169 yr Don't forget blocks like the piston head or the portal block. Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable. If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME. Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice. Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked. DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.
