Hello! In this video we will learn to create a weapon, more specifically a sword, for our Add-on in a much easier way and without the need to edit the player.json

Resource folder

Items folder -> weapon.json

 
                     
                   
{
  "format_version": "1.12.0",
  "minecraft:item": {

    "components": {
      "minecraft:icon": "arma",
      "minecraft:render_offsets": "miscellaneous"
    }
  }
}

Textures folder -> item_texture.json

 
                     
                   {
  "resource_pack_name": "tutorial",
  "texture_name": "atlas.items",
  "texture_data": {
    "arma":
    {
      "textures":"textures/items/arma.png"
    }
  }
