Patterns not showing up on Hybrids

So I've had this happen with two mods now, actually, one released and one I am still working on. In my Clownfish Breeding Addon, the darwin's ocellaris does not show up as having any special pattern, it just appears as the base clownfish's pattern. Likewise, in my current mod, I am having the same issue with several of the patterns for my hybrids. It does not seem to be file size as I have patterns showing up with larger file sizes. Checked the file names and everything, they are good, too. They show up ingame with the proper name, just not showing up with pattern itself.

EDIT: Got the mod I was working on's working, was indeed a typo :P the clownfish however, no dice.

Hey Flishter. Really love that breeding add on pack. That's a really nice way of packaging things so players with and without the DLC can enjoy them.

I think I found the problem:

"patterns":[null,"ocellaris_clownfish_pattern_2","ocellaris_clownfish_pattern_3","ocellaris_clownfish_pattern_4","ocellaris_clownfish_pattern_5","ocellaris_clownfish_pattern_6]"],

There's an extra ] inside the quotes at the end of pattern 6.

"patterns":[null,"ocellaris_clownfish_pattern_2","ocellaris_clownfish_pattern_3","ocellaris_clownfish_pattern_4","ocellaris_clownfish_pattern_5","ocellaris_clownfish_pattern_6"],

Tested and this appears to fix your problem. :)

By the way, I found this by looking in the log file:

Warning: Could not find texture with name ocellaris_clownfish_pattern_6].png to be used as a pattern texture.

The log file won't catch every problem, but it's definitely worth a look just in case. Here's where it is in case you're not aware.
