Hello all, I've been working on trying to add a guide book to my mod, but have run into a few problems. I am using patchouli and followed the getting started process for modders but still do not get the item in-game when i test it. When I load the game there is only the other item added by my mod and the default guide book from patchouli. Im lost and not sure what to do next. I have already tried following the example books but was not able to get that to show up in-game either.

Any help is appreciated. 

Found the solution. Since im using 1.12.2 and not one of the newer versions of minecraft the book should be created in a different location (assets.modid.patchouli_books)

You should use the latest version of MCForge (for 1.15.2) if you want to get help here, for future reference. It's so everyone only has to think about one thing and not have to think about supporting 10 different versions of MC & Forge, each with different features, styles, capabilities, and bugs.
