I've been trying to create a very simple custom item for beta 1.12 called "rock." I have successfully created a crafting recipe for it and it shows up in my inventory, but there is no icon for it. The square is empty.
Unfortunately, the official documentation contains zero information on how to fix this. I have looked at the vanilla resource pack for 1.12 and I noticed that it has an item_texture.json file. I have also looked at other resource packs for 1.12 that have an items. This folder contains json files that define the item, which includes a 'minecraft:icon" component that seems to point to the keys in item_texture.json. However, even when I duplicate what these other resource packs are doing, the rock still has no icon/texture.
Never mind. I think I just had a couple of different versions of the addon floating around. I deleted the world and created a new one and everything works fine.
I would still like to know how other mod creators figured out how to specify textures for custom items. I can find zero documentation anywhere.

Any idea what I might be doing wrong?
