"animation.json: Unable to find animation."

Everytime I try to spawn my custom entity, it crashes and gives me this error. Geckolib plugin is installed, the .json file is ok, the animations are set correctly and I already did another animated entity with no erros so idk what caused this. Here's the full log: https://pastebin.com/kA3A8QK8

I did not make this plugin so I really am not the person to know answer to that, but from what I have seen, there is some animation JSON fixer tool made by the plugin author

Maybe if you took 2 seconds to read the tutorial, you would know that you just need to name the animation file the same thing as the model. Since people never bothered, I walked the extra mile and made it rename the file automatically in the latest versions when importing. Just name your animation files the same as your models and it will fix it. ookamegeckolib.animation.json for example doesn't exist because you didn't name any of your animation files that.
