[REQUEST] Simple template/example mod for adding clothing items

[Chalky]

The wiki has an example mod that teaches you how to add simple items, using wands as an example: https://github.com/Nateonus/vsmodexamples/releases/tag/FirstRelease

But no matter how many different ways I try I can't use this template to create new clothing items, and the only mods that add clothes are either too complex for what I need or don't have an example of the specific clothing slot I want to add items to, so I can't modify those mods to get what I want without making them unstable.

I'm trying to add some simple custom necklace items I've already made 3d models for and are ready to go but I just can't get them into the game. Will there ever be more specific example mods to learn from?

Necklaces are a bit different for sure, but here's my "clean pants" mod that I shared with someone recently.

A complete mod that adds one pair of clean pants to the game, no more, no less.

I made this mod with no prior knowledge of clothing mods - by taking the vanilla "lowerbody.json", bringing it into my own mod, then stripping it down to its bare essentials.  And tweaking it a bit to meet my needs.  Quite sure lowerbody.json only applies to pants though so you'll be looking for a different file in about the same location as this one.

There isn't a shape in the mod (I use a vanilla shape and then retexture it via the mod) but I did have a shape folder all prepped and ready for my very own shape file.
