Hey guys, I'm just starting out to learn Minecraft modding and for some reason my block isn't loading.

I'm going through the errors and it seems that these errors tell me why:

[m[33m[17:49:38] [Worker-Main-11/WARN] [minecraft/ModelBakery]: Exception loading blockstate definition: 'testmod:blockstates/ruby_ore.json' in resourcepack: 'Mod Resources' for variant: 'normal': Unknown blockstate property: 'normal'
[m[33m[17:49:38] [Worker-Main-11/WARN] [minecraft/ModelBakery]: Exception loading blockstate definition: 'testmod:blockstates/ruby_ore.json' missing model for variant: 'testmod:ruby_ore#'
[m[33m[17:49:39] [Worker-Main-11/WARN] [minecraft/ModelBakery]: Unable to load model: 'testmod:ruby_ore#inventory' referenced from: testmod:ruby_ore#inventory: java.io.FileNotFoundException: testmod:models/item/ruby_ore.js

As you can tell, I am trying to add "ruby's" to the game and have succeeded in just adding rubies but am not having much luck on the block side.

Here is the code for how I registered the block,

	@SubscribeEvent
	public static void onRegisterBlocks(RegistryEvent.Register<Block> event) {
		Block ruby_ore = new Block(Block.Properties.create(Material.IRON).hardnessAndResistance(
				0.6F, 6.0F).sound(SoundType.STONE));
		
		event.getRegistry().registerAll(
				setup(ruby_ore, "ruby_ore")
		);
		// new BlockItem(
		//		ruby_ore, new Item.Properties().group(ModItemGroups.MOD_ITEM_GROUP)).setRegistryName(ruby_ore.getRegistryName());
	}
	@SubscribeEvent
	public static void onRegisterBlockItem(RegistryEvent.Register<Item> event) {
		BlockItem ruby_ore = new BlockItem(
				ModBlocks.RUBY_ORE, new Item.Properties().group(ModItemGroups.MOD_ITEM_GROUP));
		event.getRegistry().registerAll(
				setup(ruby_ore, "ruby_ore"));
	}
	public static <T extends IForgeRegistryEntry<T>> T setup(final T entry, final String name) {
		return setup(entry, new ResourceLocation(testmod.MODID, name));
	}
	
	public static <T extends IForgeRegistryEntry<T>> T setup(final T entry, final ResourceLocation registryName) {
		entry.setRegistryName(registryName);
		return entry;	
	}

My ObjectHolder class for all my blocks:

@ObjectHolder(testmod.MODID)
public class ModBlocks {
	public static final Block RUBY_ORE = null;
}

and my file structure:

From the error it seems simply that my variants object is off because it seems to have "normal" as its key, but that isn't true.

Here is my testmod.blockstates.ruby_ore.json

{
    "variants": {
        "": { "model": "testmod:block/ruby_ore" }
    }
}

My testmod.models.block.ruby_ore.json

{
    "parent": "block/cube_all",
    "textures": {
        "all": "testmod:blocks/ruby_ore"
    }
}

and of course my testmod.item.ruby_ore.json

{
    "parent": "testmod:block/ruby_ore"
}

 Anyways hoping anyone can help me find the cause of my error!

I'm not sure if this is the setting of your IDE but ASSETS should not be capitalized.

Yeh that's just how VSCode displays the parent folder not what I named the folder itself.

Good to know.

Your structure and json files looks fine, is it possible for you to upload a repo?

Is there a way to share a repo privately? (I assume on GitHub)

I don't think you can (beside gists), but you can always remove the link here or make the repo private afterwards.

 

I can't guarantee that I can fix your problem tho.

I'm bad at JSONs, but as far as I see, here is no

What do you mean "here is no"?

Ok I might create a repo and make it private afterwards

I'm not sure, but it looks like minecraft is searching for modelblockstate variant "normal", but you do not specify it.

But then why would it say:

Unknown blockstate property: 'normal'

?

this may help you

 

"A block with just one variant uses "" as a name for its variant."

Ok, I got it, your file is fine

Have a look please  thanks so much for the help

 

It works totally fine in my dev environment. There must be something messed up with yours, you may want to recreate all folders...etc.
