I am trying to add blocks to expand the Create: Molten Metals mod using kubeJS in Fabric 1.20.1. I am having issues adding the molds with custom textures and models.

Here's the script:

StartupEvents.registry('block', event => { event.create('molten_adamantite_ingot_mold') .displayName('Molten Adamantite Ingot Mold') .hardness(0.0) .resistance(0.0) .fullBlock(false) .soundType('metal') .requiresTool(false) .model('kubejs:block/molten_adamantite_ingot_mold.json') })

I have the model json file under minecraft/kubejs/assets/kubejs/models/block and it still renders a full block with the purple and black checkerboard.

How do I get it to use the model json and the texture? The wiki defines both under the .model() function

.model(value: ID) Specify a custom model. The path must look like 'kubejs:block/texture_name' (which would be included under kubejs/assets/kubejs/models/block/texture_name.png). Defaults to 'kubejs:block/<block_name>'.

Thank you in advance.

try remove the .json in the .model(...)

drifting pebble Jun 30, 2025, 10:15 PM

#

Trying now

#

No dice. Same effect.

#

drifting pebble No dice. Same effect.

how about removing the .model line? It should find the model with the name by default.

drifting pebble Jun 30, 2025, 10:37 PM

#

same thing

how does the model.json looke like

I'm basically extending the functionality of an existing mod with all this

Is there a missing } in the model json ?

#

btw, you should use codeblock, which makes reading codes easier

viscid patrolBOT Jun 30, 2025, 10:56 PM

#

You can write your code in a codeblock by typing it between the codeblock delimiters:
Note that these are backticks, not apostrophes

```js :arrow_left:

ServerEvents.recipes(event => {
event.smelting('minecraft:glass', '#forge:sand').xp(.1)
})

``` :arrow_left:

This example will look like this:

ServerEvents.recipes(event => {
  event.smelting('minecraft:glass', '#forge:sand').xp(.1)
})

drifting pebble Jun 30, 2025, 10:57 PM

I'm not seeing any

Just tested the model, seems like fine, so the problem is not in the model itself

I think it's trying to reference something from the molten metals mod itself

orchid crane Jun 30, 2025, 11:29 PM

#

Maybe you should register the thing under the molten_metal namespace

#

or copy the model file to the path molten_metals:models/block/molten_adamantite_ingot_mold.json

[16:20:01] [Worker-ResourceReload-7/WARN]: Unable to load model: 'molten_metals:block/molten_adamantite_ingot_mold' referenced from: kubejs:molten_adamantite_ingot_mold#inventory: java.io.FileNotFoundException: molten_metals:models/block/molten_adamantite_ingot_mold.json

drifting pebble Jun 30, 2025, 11:31 PM

#

Oh I see the issue. I didn't change the namespace in the item models

#

Let me try fixing that and I'll lyk

drifting pebble Jul 1, 2025, 12:28 AM

#

So the first person model works but not the block still

drifting pebble Jul 1, 2025, 1:04 AM

Okay so now I can place it and it looks correct except that it's occluding the blocks behind it and it isn't facing the direction I place it

orchid crane Jul 1, 2025, 1:24 AM

#

try .defaultTranslucent() for the occluding problem

#

As for facing, you might need to modify the BlockEvents.placed in server script

drifting pebble Jul 1, 2025, 9:53 AM

#

So I have the blockstate json

  "variants": {
    "facing=north": { "model": "kubejs:block/molten_adamantite_ingot_mold" },
    "facing=south": { "model": "kubejs:block/molten_adamantite_ingot_mold", "y": 180 },
    "facing=west":  { "model": "kubejs:block/molten_adamantite_ingot_mold", "y": 270 },
    "facing=east":  { "model": "kubejs:block/molten_adamantite_ingot_mold", "y": 90 }
  }
}

but how do I adjust a blockevents.placed script to adjust the rotation using .property(BlockProperties.HORIZONTAL_FACING)?

drifting pebble Jul 1, 2025, 8:43 PM

#

I noticed there's a "cardinal" HorizontalDirectionalBlockBuilder as an alternate block builder but trying to use it gives me the following error:

[13:39:25] [ERROR] ! add_molds.js#1: ReferenceError: "cardinal" is not defined.

orchid crane Jul 1, 2025, 11:13 PM

I just realized it might be easier to do it with createCustom

This works perfectly. Thank you. I just need to rename the blocks and add the rest!
