After compressing resource pack, Minecraft stops displaying textures on some models. Will be grateful for any support in resolving this

"compressing" as in putting it in a zip?

[cyan basin]

Yes

[vernal stump]

zipping it shouldn't suddenly invalidate the texture path 🤔

can you show an output log from when they fail to load?

Java: Output Log

The output log will show you errors related to resource packs in Minecraft: Java Edition. Here is how you can enable it.
(PS: Optifine likes to hide vanilla errors/warnings for some weird reason, so always load the game up without it if you don't need it for your pack to work!)
If you don't understand the errors/warnings feel free to show and ask about them (in a help channel).

Hello thank you for helping me out and I'm sorry for late response. I recorded a video with my resource pack problem, maybe it'll help you understand the concern more

It's already worrying that there are "error executing task" messages when you load the normal pack
Either way, here are 2 things I'd suggest:

1. simplify your folder/file names. Half of your texture path is invalid on a default client.

!faq invalid-names

[obtuse gulch]

FAQ

Java: Invalid Names

Files/Folders nor reference to them are allowed to contain capital letters nor spaces.
Valid symobls are: a-z (lowercase only!) 0-9 / . _ and -

When changing a file's/folder's name, keep in mind that you also need to update all references (texture path in models, model paths in custom_model_data predicates etc.)
Disclaimer: Optifine used to allow those characters, but for a vanilla client the model will either be the error cube or it might even crash their game (depending on their specs).

2. If fixing the first problem doesn't help try to zip the pack the following way instead:
   Select assets, pack.mcmeta and pack.png as you already did before, rightclick them and use "Send to > ZIP-compressed folder" instead of using Winrar

Thank you so much, the problem was that path to textures in models was starting from capitals but textures itself were lower case. But minecraft ignored it if it's not compressed. You helped me a lot
