It seems that this mod won't work with popular resource pack from vanilla tweaks
my guess is in unobtrusive tab-smaller utilities resource pack is the one causing this compatibility issue
can you please fix this issue since many of my friends and I have this resource pack
just to be sure I upload all of my resource pack selected in vanilla tweaks so you can recreate this issue
without this pack mod works
stay sus :)
VanillaTweaks_1.18.zip

this pack only shrinks the item size so won't be as obtrusive as it is in vanilla
so need to adapt the size only
please fix this <3

@Theoness1 is it fixable?

@Theoness1 is it fixable?

ща попробую

I don't know how to add support yet, but the creator of the texture pack can add support, he will need to create json files with animation and assign animation to the item and add the item to smaller util for the animation to work.

I sent a feedback to the resource pack creator as well
I hope it get fix, either you figure it out or them
thank you

@Theoness1 How about only just making each food model part disappear on each stage, when resource packs are applied?

For Example:

If [] = True
X = False

Stage 0:
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]

Stage 1:
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXX[][][][][][][][][][][][]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]

Stage 2:
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXX[][]
XXXXXX[][][][][][][][][][]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]

Stage 3:
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
[][][][][][][]XXXXXXXXX
[][][][][][][][][][][][]XXXX
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]

Stage 4:
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
[]XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
[][][]XXXXXXXXXXXXX
[][][][][][][][][][][][][][][][]

...yada yada yada

For an easier one, you can just make the food model parts keep disappearing like a 2x2 grid-like pattern.

or maybe 3x3, 4x4, and so on

I'm gonna make a compatible version of vanilla tweaks smaller utilities for me and i'm gonna share it.

the only thing needed is basically to add the smaller utilities parent and to change the parent used by the included pack to the smaller utilities one

Here it is ! Please take note that this pack isn't a merge of VT pack with this mod so VT need to be present and this pack needs to be above it to be able to properly function (because it needs to override some models)

@Theoness1
the resource pack @Julienraptor01 provided works and is compatible with small utilities from vanillatweaks
thanks both of you for helping to make it work
also if you are going to add this resource pack in mod's download page then close this issue but if not then keep it open so others can find the resource pack here
