I added an OBJ block to my mod that also renders the OBJ model as an item. When I try changing the gui display rotation or scale, nothing changes. All it looks like is flat with no rotation.

 

This is my current blockstate json file. I've tried using gui display as well and that didn't work either. I'm pretty sure the model isn't changed for thirdperson or hand display either.

{
	"forge_marker": 1,
	"defaults": {
		"model": "arcademod:generic_machine.obj",
		"custom": { "flip-v": true },
        "transform": "forge:default-block"
	},
	"variants": {
        "game": {
			"snake": {
				"textures": {
					"#Back": "arcademod:blocks/generic_machine"
				}
			},
            "tetrominoes": {
                "model": "arcademod:tetris.obj"
            },
            "pacman": {
            	"model": "arcademod:pacman.obj"
            }
		},
		"facing": {
			"south": {
				"y": 0
			},
			"west": {
				"y": 90
			},
			"north": {
				"y": 180
			},
			"east": {
				"y": 270
			}
		}
	}
}

alright, so i literally put "transform": "forge:default-block" everywhere and it now works. It seems like it has to be in the "facing" variants... which also breaks the block from being able to rotate...

 

{
	"forge_marker": 1,
	"transform": "forge:default-block",
	"defaults": {
		"transform": "forge:default-block",
		"model": "arcademod:generic_machine.obj",
		"custom": { "flip-v": true }
	},
	"variants": {
        "game": {
			"snake": {
				"transform": "forge:default-block",
				"textures": {
					"#Back": "arcademod:blocks/generic_machine"
				}
			},
            "tetrominoes": {
            	"transform": "forge:default-block",
                "model": "arcademod:tetris.obj"
            },
            "pacman": {
            	"transform": "forge:default-block",
            	"model": "arcademod:pacman.obj"
            }
		},
		"facing": {
			"south": {
                "transform": "forge:default-block",
				"y": 0
			},
			"west": {
                "transform": "forge:default-block",
				"y": 90
			},
			"north": {
                "transform": "forge:default-block",
				"y": 180
			},
			"east": {
                "transform": "forge:default-block",
				"y": 270
			}
		}
	}
}

 

EDIT: Since my ItemMeshDefinition only tries to get the facing=north variant I removed all the other "transform" except for the one under "facing=north" and that fixed my block facing issue. Except for north. I can switch ItemMeshDefinition to get "facing=south" as a way around this. But is this a bug? as putting the transform under "default" or anywhere else didn't work

If it's in defaults and the variants don't change it, you don't need it in the variant block.

Having the transform in defaults doesn't change it. Seems to only work when I have it in facing.
