Crafting recipe doesnt work

[GamingTechnologies]

Hello, I have a sword I wanna craft but it doesnt work, I coped the diamond sword recipe file and changed the diamond and result to my modded item but it won't work, any advise?

 

{
  "type": "minecraft:crafting_shaped",
  "pattern": [
    "X",
    "X",
    "#"
  ],
  "key": {
    "#": {
      "tag": "forge:rods/wooden"
    },
    "X": {
      "tag": "realism:ruby"
    }
  },
  "result": {
    "item": "realism:ruby_sword"
  }
}

Your .json looks valid, so you don't have to worry about syntax.

 

Where is this .json located? It should be placed in resources\data\modid\recipes. If it's already there, is everything spelled correctly in both this .json and the directory?

You have "tag": "realism:ruby" as an ingredient, have you made sure such a tag exists?

If you just want to use that specific item, you'll want to use "item": "realism:ruby" instead.

It is in the right place, I have other recipes for blocks that work

        " I ",
        " S "
    ],
    
    "key":
    {
        "I": { "item": "realism:ruby" },
        "S": { "item": "minecraft:stick" }    
    },
    
    "result": { "item": "realism:ruby_pickaxe" }
}

Your pattern is

"III",
" I ",
" S "

maybe you meant

"III",
" S ",
" S "

instead?

Omg I'm dumb I didn't realise that, thanks for the help, I guess today is just not my day.

Also, you used the specific item this time instead of the tag.
