# Using Custom Model Data to Create New Item into the Game {% hint style="warning" %} This page considers a big part of an another guide: [Simplexity-Development](https://github.com/Simplexity-Development/Custom_Model_Data_Guide) {% endhint %} {% hint style="warning" %} Example item's texture that used in the stages is copyrighted to: [ItemRebound](https://www.planetminecraft.com/member/betaklerik/) {% endhint %} 1. To create a new item, you first need to select an original item. Original item is item that you are going to use for basement. {% hint style="info" %} For example: If you are going to add a new eatable item into the game, your original item could be apple, cooked\_beef, beef... I want to use the apple, because I'm going to create Green Apple. {% endhint %} 2. Take the original item .json file and put it into your resource pack. This must go into the vanilla namespace. For example, I want to use apple for original model: ``` ..\assets\minecraft\models\item\apple.json ``` 3. Then, create a new folder for your own assets within the assets directory. For example, I want to use "custompack" name for namespace: ``` ..\assets\custompack\ ``` 4. Within this folder, create the initial folders **models**, and **textures**, and an **item** folder within both of those:

Create models & textures files inside of "Your Namespace"

5. Open the original item .json file you're basing off of and add the following code at below and change it for your item:

{"parent":"minecraft:item/generated","textures":{"layer0":"minecraft:item/apple"},
"overrides" : [
{ "predicate": { "custom_model_data": 10000 }, "model": "custompack:item/green_apple" }
]
}

{% hint style="success" %} You should change the code's custom model data value & model path, namespace, item name for you declared them like. {% endhint %} 6. This code tells the game which model file to look for. The model file should be in the **../assets/\/models/\** folder. {% hint style="danger" %} You should also name your custom model data with an unique prefix number that makes sense to you to avoid **conflicts** with other custom model data packs. {% endhint %} 7. Then, create a model file in the folder that you declared path in previous stages:

8. Inside of this .json file add the code at below, you are telling the game which texture file(s) to look for: ``` { "parent": "minecraft:item/generated", "textures": { "layer0": "custompack:item/green_apple" } } ``` 9. So, you must be have the texture in path where you declared in:

{% hint style="danger" %} Texture images have to be in limits by Minecraft. {% endhint %} 10. After, go to the game and execute those commands by ordered: ``` /pack load /pack update ``` [^1]: Minecraft Namespace [^2]: Path of Original Item [^3]: Original Item .json Name [^4]: Your Custom Model Data Code [^5]: Your Namespace [^6]: Your Item Path [^7]: Your Model .json Name --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
