Verify Resource Pack is Active

If you see a regular gold totem instead of the pig king:

1. Open your world or go to the main menu

2. Check Resource Packs settings

3. Confirm the Technoblade Totem pack is in the "Active" list (not "Available")

4. If it's in Available, drag it to Active

5. Restart your world

Check Your Totem Source

Make sure you're actually holding a Totem of Undying, not a different item. The resource pack only changes the appearance of the vanilla totem—it won't affect other items.

Clear Cache

If the model still doesn't appear:

1. Close Minecraft completely

2. Delete your resource pack cache (usually in .minecraft/resourcepacks)

3. Re-enable the resource pack

4. Relaunch the game

The custom model should now display correctly. If issues persist, verify the resource pack file isn't corrupted by re-downloading it.
