[1.12.2] [Solved] Block model variants failing to load

[IceMetalPunk]

I have three blocks, all of which are basically identical except for their name and a bit of tile entity logic. The blocks function perfectly. I started adding the assets for them... and I'm getting a bug. The item models, which simply have the block models as parents, work just fine. (Currently, as textures aren't made for them yet, "just fine" means "showing furnace textures through the custom model and blockstate files".) But the blocks themselves aren't rendering, instead showing the purple-and-black "not found" default textures.

I'm getting errors in the error log when trying to load the models, as shown below:

[03:27:00] [main/FATAL] [FML]: Suppressed additional 19 model loading errors for domain infernaltech

 

Seeing as it says it "suppressed additional 19 model loading errors for domain infernaltech", I assume that means it's unable to load *any* of the 24 variants across the 3 blocks (and it's not a big assumption, as testing in-game shows none of the models render properly in any orientation or active state). But I can't figure out why.

Here's the current repo: https://github.com/IceMetalPunk/Infernal-Tech

The last time I had an issue like this, it turned out to be a typo in one of my model files. But there are fewer files this time, and I've double-checked them all, and I can see no typos. The model files are copied directly from Minecraft's own models, with the "minecraft:" domain added to prefix the textures/parents. The blockstate files are not, but I've checked them over several times and see no issue.

I'd bet 10-to-1 that this is just another silly typo, one typo screwing it all up... but I can't find it. Maybe I just need another pair of eyes (or two)?

Quote

"facing=south,active=true": { "model": "infernaltech:lit_hellfire_smeltery_tier_1", "y": 180 },

 

active=true,facing=south is not the same as facing=south,active=true.

 

If you use Forge's blockstates format, you can specify the effect of each property value individually and you don't need to list the properties in a specific order (except when using fully-defined variants).

Oh! Well, at least it wasn't a silly mistake on my part this time; I never knew the order of properties mattered when defining block states. Is there a way to determine the order it's expecting? (Or is it simply alphabetical?)

It is simply alphabetical, at least for the default state mapper (the thing that maps IBlockState instances to variant strings). Always keep in mind that variant strings are just that, simple strings. They are not parsed or analyzed in any way. Either they match, or they don't. The variant matching has no concept of "properties" and their "values". It only compares strings.

That's very good to know! Thank you!
