Problem with Custom Item Trims

You correctly created 5 brand-new custom trim materials for this datapack — blaze, breeze, prismarine, echo, and star (I can see them in CombatExpansionDP/data/combat_expansion/trim_material/, and your atlas's paletted_permutations in items.json only generates textures for those 5 names). Your armor pieces (helmets, boots, etc.) all correctly reference these 5 materials — e.g. iron_helmet_blaze_trim.json


But for the axe, netherite_axe.json instead lists the 11 base trim materials (quartz, iron, netherite, redstone, copper, gold, emerald, diamond, lapis, amethyst, resin) — materials that don't exist in your pack at all. And the one axe model you did create, netherite_axe_quartz_trim.json, points to this texture combat_expansion:trims/items/axe_trim_quartzthat was never generated by your atlas, since your atlas only ever produces axe_trim_blaze, axe_trim_breeze, axe_trim_prismarine, axe_trim_echo, axe_trim_star

something worth checking on your end before you load this: Your axe_trim.png source texture (combat_expansion/textures/trims/items/axe_trim.png) — make sure it's a grayscale/template-style texture like vanilla's helmet_trim.png etc., since the palette permutation system recolors it per-material. If it's already a colored texture (like netherite_axe_trimmed.png looks like it might be), the tinting will look wrong.

From this error alone I can't make up the problem, would you be able to send me the .zip you currently use?
