For the life of me I can't figure out why this recipe doesn't work in the new JSON system. The log shows this error

[main/ERROR] [FML]: Parsing error loading recipe tm:tutorial_helmet
com.google.gson.JsonSyntaxException: Unknown item 'tm:tutorial_ingot'

 

And this is the JSON file

{
    "type": "minecraft:crafting_shaped",
    "pattern": [
        "III",
        "I I",
        "   "
    ],
    "key": {
        "I": {
            "item": "tm:tutorial_ingot"
        }
    },
    "result": {
        "item": "tm:tutorial_helmet"
    }
}

A mod ID that is only 2 characters long is not really a good idea. It's best if you make it at least 3, might be related to your other problem.

 

Also, if you have a completely blank row or column in a recipe (cough, you do) just omit it, or it forces the recipe into the top two rows.

I saw that in the vanilla recipe, but figured it wasn't working so I'd try it that way.

 

What is the issue with 2 character modids?

Too easy for two different mods to try and use the same mod ID

In your case, are you registering the tm:tutorial_ingot in the RegistryEvent<Item> handler?

I was under the impression that the recipes only had to be in the recipe asset folder? If not how do I register the JSON recipe?

 

Also, in a test environment with only my mod, would the 2 character modid cause this issue?

For the recipes, yes; but you still need to register the items.
