I would facepalm but that kind of mistake is worthy of a facepalm strong enough to knock my head clean off... Thank you

That's what I figured, but I can't figure out exactly what is wrong with the model. I thought maybe someone else may see something wrong with it that I didn't see.

Here are the console errors: [Client thread/ERROR] [FML]: Could not load vanilla model parent '<mod-id here>:block/<block unlocalized name here>' for

renders correctly ingame and does not give errors on initialization. When I replace the default block model for that block with the custom model above without modifying anything else I get these errors and the block renders as a pink and black cube in hand and in world. This would lead me to believe that the problem is with the block model json. I also use the following methods in my block class: @Override public boolean isFullCube(IBlockState state) { return false; } @Override public boolean isOpaqueCube(IBlockState state) { return false; }

I have successfully created a normal block with a texture. I then tried to replace the model with a custom .json file: { "textures": { "particle": "blocks/obsidian" "0": "blocks/obsidian", "1": "blocks/end_stone", "2": "blocks/glass" }, "elements": [ {

here>:<unlocalized name of my block here>" }, "variants": { "normal": [{}], "inventory": [{}] } }

I figured it out! For anyone that had the same problem, I simply put the "ModelLoader.setCustomModelResourceLocation()" in the init() the first time around, moving it to the preinit() fixed my problem!

I came upon another issue...

That worked! Thank you!

I found a tutorial on how to make a item with meta data in 1.8 at: http://bedrockminer.jimdo.com/modding-tutorials/basic-modding-1-8/blockstates-and-metadata/ I followed this tutorial, however ModelBakery.addVariantName() has been deprecated... My item will not render without this line, can anyone please help? I'm sure it is a very easy process but I have never tried using metadata before.

I added the variable and it seems to have fixed my problem, thank you!

For some reason that environment variable did not already exist... Strange considering I have modded earlier versions of Minecraft without this problem.

That doesn't really help... Is JAVA_HOME supposed to be an environment variable, some sort of java setting, other?

I don't know how I can fix this. My "path" environment variable contains "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.8.0_51\bin" but not "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_91".

I don't quite know how to fix that but the line below that would seem to contradict it.

I keep getting this error message while setting up my work space, I have tried several different versions of forge. This particular error message came from "forge-1.9-12.16.1.1887-mdk". FAILURE: Build failed with an exception. * What went wrong: Execution failed for task ':recompileMc'. > Unable to find a javac compiler; com.sun.tools.javac.Main is not on the classpath. Perhaps JAVA_HOME does not point to the JDK. It is currently set to "C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_91" * Try: Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. BUILD FAILED Total time: 39.345 secs

So this is what I have so far: public class RenderItem implements IItemRenderer { @Override public boolean handleRenderType(ItemStack item, ItemRenderType type) { switch(type){ case EQUIPPED: return true; default: return false; } } @Override public boolean shouldUseRenderHelper(ItemRenderType type, ItemStack item, ItemRendererHelper helper) { return false; } @Override public void renderItem(ItemRenderType type, ItemStack itemStack, Object... data) { switch(type){ case EQUIPPED: GL11.glPushMatrix(); //I don't know what to put here... GL11.glPopMatrix(); default: break; } } } I'm sorry, i'm new to rendering.
