Cannot be larger than 112x112x112 pixels (To make a model larger than this, combine bones together using parenting.).

Personally, I (Flame) like to create my model in Blockbench's Block/Item Project because it automatically keeps the rotations legal, then imports them into Generic Project. Note: You can hold shift while rotating to restrict your rotation values, however, they can still become illegal.

Cannot be larger than 112x112x112 pixels, or 7x7x7 blocks (technically 3x3x3 blocks, but Model Engine uses display sizes to work around it).

In-game every bone is represented by an armor stand that wears the new models on its head.īecause the new models are put into a resource pack, Cubes must obey the laws and restrictions of Minecraft Item Modeling: Model Engine achieves smooth animation by taking a Generic or Bedrock model and splitting it into multiple resource pack compatible models, based on the bones. Bones are folders for cubes, grouping them up. When modeling, it is important to know the differences between Bones and Cubes.Ĭubes are each individual cube in a model. File Name would be the ID of the model in Model Engine, so choose wisely.īefore moving any further, there are a few very essential concepts you must learn. To start modeling, create a new Generic Model project or Bedrock Model project (Generic is recommended) in the start page. Please watch or read a tutorial online for that.

Note: This page does not focus on explaining how to use Blockbench or texturing.

It is designed to work seamlessly with BlockBench, which is a free software that can be used for modeling, texturing, and animating. Model Engine needs model files to display them in game.
