[1.12] Metadata Textures and Naming

[GammaS_]

Hi All! I have been working to try and get metadata items working, as my mod is going to have a lot of different crafting items, and that is quite a few JSON files. So I have got it so more than 1 item appears in the creative tab from 1 item, but they are showing as nothing, not even the default no texture texture, and they have the same name "item.test_material.name". So I was hoping that somebody could shed some light and whereabouts I am going wrong.

 

Registering Item Models:

Spoiler

	@SubscribeEvent
	public static void onModelRegister(ModelRegistryEvent event) {
		for (Item item : ItemInit.ITEMS) {
			if (item instanceof IHasModel) {
				if (!item.getHasSubtypes()) {
					((IHasModel)item).registerModels(0, "", "inventory");
				} else {
					NonNullList<ItemStack> subItems = NonNullList.create();
					item.getSubItems(CreativeTabs.SEARCH, subItems);
	
					for (int i = 0; i < subItems.size(); i++) {
						subItems.get(i).getItem().setUnlocalizedName(subItems.get(i).getItem().getUnlocalizedName() + "_" + i);
						((IHasModel)subItems.get(i).getItem()).registerModels(i, "", "test=" + i);
					}
	
				}
			}
		}

 

 

 

My test_material.json:

Spoiler

{
    "forge_marker": 1,
    "defaults": {
        "model": "builtin/generated"
    },
    "variants": {
        "test": {
            "1":     {"textures": {"layer0": "geoex:items/chunk_banded_iron"} },
            "2":     {"textures": {"layer0": "geoex:items/chunk_limestone"} }
        }
    }
}

 

 

 

Hmm, not sure what else you would need to look at really, but here is a link to my Github Repo if you need anything else: https://github.com/Lurmey/geological-expansion/tree/master/GeologicalExpansion/src/main

 

Edit:

This is what is called when I do .registerModels(), where it passes through the item and the item inserts itself into the call of this function:

Spoiler

public class ClientProxy extends CommonProxy {

	public void registerItemRenderer(Item item, int meta, String variantName, String id) {
		ModelLoader.setCustomModelResourceLocation(item, meta, new ModelResourceLocation(item.getRegistryName() + variantName, id));
	}

This will not work. Ever.
