Item shows up in creative inventory, but does not have a texture or proper name?

[General_Ganon]

(Note: The string modid within the following bullets represents the actual mod id, and itemid represents the item id, a.k.a the string used in the registry name.)

I am using Forge 1.15.2-31.2.0.

I ensured:

• The item id is the same in all the cases
• The texture I made is called the item id, a png file, and in assets:modid:textures:item(all packages)
• The en_us.json has the item defined as "item:modid:itemid"
• The model json has the texture as layer0 within textures defined as "modid:item/itemid"

The item within the game has the missing(purple and black checkered) texture and is named "item:modid:itemid", the same as what is defined in the en_us.json. In addition, Minecraft throws a warning that there is no ResourcePackInfo within the built code. If there is any other information that may help with this, please request it. Thank you in advance. What follows is the latest.log.

It says it cant find this file. Double check folder/package names and that the file exists.

The en_us.json has the item defined as "item:modid:itemid"

use . instead of : i.e. item.modid.itemid

Well, sort of. should be item.modid:itemid

Because resource locations are correctly separated by colons.

By default, blocks and item translation keys now use their registry name (replacing the colon with a dot)

 

[General_Ganon]

I changed the en_us.json file(dots only) appropriately, and ensured that the tutorial_item.json file was in the right place(it is, somehow). Yet, nothing changed. Not even the item name changed, even though the built file did change. This provides the insight that the broken item name does not come from the en_us.json.

[General_Ganon]

Here is the file structure for the files, just in case I'm not seeing something important.

[Ugdhar]

Are the folders those packages represent separated by slashes and not dots? Just want to make sure, I've seen them be made using the dots in the folder names, which breaks stuff.

i.e the folder should be assets/ringsandthings, not assets.ringsandthings

Edited June 20, 2020 by Ugdhar

[General_Ganon]

Yes, the folders are just represented like that in Eclipse. If the filepath is assets/ringsandthings, and there is only one package in assets, it will show up as that.

Ah, I had forgotten.

[General_Ganon]

SOLVED! I was missing the pack.mcmeta file! For people combing the forums for a solution, the pack.mcmeta is included within the mdk, under src/main/resources, and should be in the same place for your mod.
