Do it in BlockBench before exporting.

I suggest you check our tutorials collection playlist on our YouTube channel which contains many examples and tutorials that can help you get started with MCreator: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAeL-oIFIEngE6jRgFYeFMfuj8WQsO3Ei

There are a few tutorials for this too.

Delete existing and import newly named one. Keep in mind file name is not model name

Same problem here, whatever name I give to my Blockbench model, this message will pop up... I'm forced to load a new workspace for each model...

So I think I fixed it. when you import a new file into mcreator open the workspace directory and go into models then rename the file. After renaming the file, open it and rename the two bits which say Modelcustom_model with the name you renamed your file with. If you have any entitys that use that original file you will need to jsut open them and re-asign them. Hope this helps.

you could do this:

when creating a new project in blockbench, below the spot that you enter the file name, there should be a "model identifier" section. Enter a name in the model identifier, and it should work.

I can't find an option to rename the models, do you have to do it externally out of the mod or can you do it in the creator?

Okay, I found a fix, well I didn't find it but I'm just decided to share this here, open the .java file with notepad or anything that can open text files, and look for the public class custom_model extends EntityModel<Entity> { line.

change the CUSTOM_MODEL text to whatever your mod model is called.

under it there will be a public custom_model() { thing.

Change the CUSTOM_MODEL text to the same that you put above.
