Hi,

I am trying to make a seaweed item for my mod using block/cross.

 

The block state json looks like this:

{
  "forge_marker": 1,
  "defaults": {
    "model": "biochemicalengineering:brownseaweed"
  },
  "variants": {
    "normal": [{}],
    "inventory": [{}]
  }
}

and the model json

{
  "parent": "block/cross",
  "textures": {
    "top": "biochemicalengineering:blocks/brownseaweed"

  }
}

 

The problem is, the texture does not load - I get the unloaded texture black and purple texture, both in hand and when placed.

The only errors in the log are these warnings:
 

[19:04:43] [main/WARN]: Unable to resolve texture due to upward reference: #cross in minecraft:models/block/cross
[19:04:44] [main/WARN]: Unable to resolve texture due to upward reference: #cross in minecraft:models/block/cross

What do these mean and how do I solve the problem?

Note that if I change the parent to block/cube_all and "top" to "all", the texture does render correctly (but obviously not in a cross).

 

Thanks in advance!
