Im able to create a block with the same texture on every side but I can't figure out why my json's won't create a block with unique textures on the north and south sides.

I can't find any good examples online or in the forge project.

 

Code

"

{
    "parent": "block/cube_all",
    "textures": {
        "all": "minecraftedu:block/edu_default_block"
        "north": "minecraftedu:block/not_block"
        "south": "minecraftedu:block/not_block"
    }
}

"

"

{
    "variants": {
        "": { "model": "minecraftedu:block/edu_default_block" }
        "north": { "model": "minecraftedu:block/not_block" }
        "south": { "model": "minecraftedu:block/not_block" }
    }
}

"

The minecraft wiki has a good breakdown of the model json format:

https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Model#Block_models

 

Also, check the vanilla model files for things with different faces to see how they did it. The vanilla sources are a very good reference, and should be viewable through your IDE.

where are they, ive been looking for hours and can only find the classes

There should be a reference to client-extra.jar that's where the json models and stuff are.

I've tried what the link you posted suggested and it's still not working

 

{
    "parent": "block/cube_all",
    "textures": {
        "all":  "minecraftedu:block/not_block"
    },
    "elements": [
        {
            "from": [ 0, 0, 0 ],
            "to": [ 16, 16, 16 ],
            "faces": {
                "down": { "uv": [0,0, 16,8], "texture": "#all", "cullface": "down" },
                "up": { "uv": [0,0, 16,8], "texture": "#all", "cullface": "up" },
                "north": { "uv": [0,8, 16,16], "texture": "#all", "cullface": "north" },
                "south": { "uv": [0,8, 16,16], "texture": "#all", "cullface": "south" },
                "west": { "uv": [0,0, 16,8], "texture": "#all", "cullface": "west" },
                "east": { "uv": [0,0, 16,8], "texture": "#all", "cullface": "east" },
            }
        }
    ]
}

 

Did you find the client-extra.jar? Look at the json for the crafting table as an example.

That's what I would do if I were trying to do what you are doing.

 

What is working/not working? (be specific) If you're getting missing textures (black/purple squares), you should also post logs so it shows what it is looking for.

You see this bit? This bit points to another json file that defines the six sides. Check out all of the other "cube_xxx.json" assets (including cube.json)

 

And oh yeah,

                "north": { "uv": [0,8, 16,16], "texture": "#all", "cullface": "north" },
                "south": { "uv": [0,8, 16,16], "texture": "#all", "cullface": "south" },
                "west": { "uv": [0,0, 16,8], "texture": "#all", "cullface": "west" },
                "east": { "uv": [0,0, 16,8], "texture": "#all", "cullface": "east" },
            }

That's pretty much exactly what cube_all defines and guess what that definition is? One texture on all sides.

 

So of course what you did didn't work because you told the game "I want one texture on all the sides."
