[SOLVED] I have a correctly formatted item, yet ResourceLocation isnt working...

[MisterSirCode]

I just started a new mod and I followed this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YRCtFeECB8M&list=PLiDUvCGH5WEUcxyUKxHpQpDuinaiNp3it&index=4

 

I followed his instructions... EXACTLY.

I went ingame after registering my item.

First try it wasnt even registered because I forgot to save the file. After I saved everything and checked formatting, ran again, checked inventory and the item was there.

The item has no resources though... the lang file, texture and model are gone.

See in the attached images, I have no spelling mistakes (im very blind, please make sure Im not wrong)

 

Code for my java file: https://hatebin.com/kppjclhegn

Code for Item file: https://hatebin.com/mhofefziiy

Lang and Model file: https://hatebin.com/hqjcsmtlaw

 

EDIT: I changed the assets folder, so instead of "resources\compParts\assets" its just "resources\assets" and now my item has a working name ingame! But the texture and model are still missing.

Your package name should be the same as your modid, and all lowercase

So everywhere you have compParts.assets etc, it should be computeparts like your modid.

Oh, That wasnt supposed to be there.

Ok, I removed it. Now its just `resources\assets\computeparts`

Ok, ingame my item now has a NAME, but the model and item texture are still missing

You should set up a github repo for your project, makes it much easier to share code for people to help

Can you post the log? It'll be in the run/logs directory.

 

And just to be sure you have assets\computeparts\textures\item and assets\computeparts\models\item ?

Yep, his tutorials are garbage. Search the forums for "Harry Talks" and you'll find dozens and dozens of people having issues after following his tutorials.

This is also wrong. You want "resources\assets\compparts" (\textures, etc)

WELLLL... he is the only tutorial that has made me a working mod.

Cant find any other tutorials on Eclipse for 1.14.4, all the rest are intellij, and if you see my previous post, its just causing so much stress

Double check your textures folder in the repo for the item folder.

 

Don't give up on your logs, read them!!

I saw that too, but its correctly named and is in the textures\item folder... Ive been developing texture packs for years... Trust me Ive done this part.

Does it not use the "item" folder? in the log it looks like its just looking for the model/texture without the \item or \block or whatever

Ill try just putting them straight into the textures and models folders respectively. See what happens

Wait wtf, it put it in a new folder... I never created a new folder... seriously... No wonder it cant find it. Eclipse created a new folder inside of textures and put the sword inside of it...

No, I mean in your repo, you have assets/computeparts/textures/New Folder (as in, literally, "New Folder")

The project files inside Eclipse won't refresh on its own. Make sure you refresh your project files every time you change them on disk.

I don't think Eclipse (or any IDE) will change its configurations on its own.

[MisterSirCode]

@Ugdhar Working fine now...

Apparently mods are a bit different than texture packs.

So normally in the model its: "layer0": "item_name"

In mods its: "layer0": "modname:item/item_name"

My item with all resource features appeared ingame. Thankyou for the help youve provided so far

Yeah I fixed the project files thing, I was refreshing and the ghost folder was still there. So I restarted.

Restarting mustve reset the Eclipse.ini file.

And yes, it reset its own config...

I used to have JDK 14 before I did modding, so yeah it installed with that config. So I changed it manually with -vm in the eclipse.ini file.

I set it to JDK 8u214 and it worked. However, I had to set it AGAIN after I restarted. No idea why.

Also I fixed the mod if you saw my last comment

TOPIC IS SOLVED. please read up through comments if you experience a similar issue

Also what IDE you use is irrelevant. It's like saying "I can't write a letter using OpenOffice, all the tutorials are for Microsoft Word!"
