I have been trying to figure this one out for a while. I am watching Mr. Crayfish's video series and it doesn't seem like anything is working. I have tried fixing my modid to lowercase. I made sure that everything that I did was right was right. The bottom of this thread is my source code. Sorry for no spoilers and such. The website won't let me insert them.

 

Main.java

public class Main {

 

@Instance

public static Main instance = new Main();

System.out.println("Pre-Init");

ModItems.init();

ModItems.register();

}

proxy.init();

}

this.unlocalizedName = unlocalizedName;

}

}

}

 

ModItems.java

public static void init() {

}

 

public static void register() {

GameRegistry.register(cheese);

}

registerRender(cheese);

}

 

private static void registerRender(Item item) {

Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderItem().getItemModelMesher()

.register(item, 0, new ModelResourceLocation(item.getRegistryName(), "inventory"));

}

 

}

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

        },

            "rotation": [0, -135, 25],

        }

    }

}

It has been stated before on the forums that MrCrayfish's tutorials are not very good. I'll show you what I mean:

• Use

  ModelLoader.setCustomModelResourceLocation

  instead of

  Minecraft.getMinecraft().getRenderItem().getItemModelMesher().register

  .
  

• Don't put client code (

  ModItems.registerRenderers()

  inside common code (

  ModItems

  . Put it on your

  ClientProxy

  .
  

• You should use

  item/generated

  in your model JSON instead of

  builtin/generated

  .
  

• Don't initialize your

  @Instance

  variable yourself, Forge does it for you.
  

• You have that awful

  EModItems

  (why?) but you never use it.
  

• You don't need the

  display

  object in your model JSON, as it handled for you by

  item/generated

  .

 

There are more issues with your code and his tutorials that you haven't gotten to yet, and I won't go into detail right now.
