[1.8.9] Mod Textures Not Loading

[bignose956]

I am working on a mod, with nw blocks and items; but wehn I loaded it in minecraft to see if is working so far, the texture for the creative tab, new item, and new block did not load, nor did the en_US.lang file. I triple checked the coding and file names, and everything seemed fine; but it still would not load. 

 

Here is a github to the files so you can further help me -----> ?

Don't use ModelMesher.  Use ModelLoader.setCustomResourceLocation (during pre-init)

 

Or better yet, make up a class like this one:

https://github.com/Draco18s/ReasonableRealism/blob/master/src/main/java/com/draco18s/hardlib/client/ClientEasyRegistry.java

 

Which will handle all the different ways you might wish to register a block or item.

Example:

import net.minecraftforge.client.model.ModelLoader;
    ...
    ModelResourceLocation res = new ModelResourceLocation (i.getRegistryName (), "inventory");
    ModelLoader.setCustomModelResourceLocation (i, 0, res);

 

Google setCustomModelResourceLocation along with keywords like Minecraft and Forge. You should see plenty of earlier discussion.

 

When all resources are missing (even the lang file), it's probably because of some little error in directory structure or a string value in code. There should be some warnings in the log file (but maybe not in console). Hunt down the log file on disk. If you can't see any failures to open resource files, then give us a link or else post it here (inside tags).

Where do I put this code?

All the above + make sure you got the model json for items and blocks properly.

 

For 1.10.2 is like this. I'm sure 1.8.9 would be similar.

 

In preInit

 

the item is registered as setUnlocalizedName("ingotCopper").setRegistryName("ingotCopper")

 

 ModelLoader.setCustomModelResourceLocation(ModItem.INGOT_COPPER, 0, new ModelResourceLocation(ModItem.INGOT_COPPER.getRegistryName(), "inventory"));

 

my json

 

{
    "parent": "item/generated",
    "textures": {
        "layer0": "modid:items/ingotCopper"
    }
}

 

And texture is under  src/main/resources/assets/modid/textures/items/ingotCopper.png
