Entity animation tutorial
Sun, 01/10/2021 - 14:41 (edited)
  1. Install the GeckoLib animation util plugin in blockbench
  2. Create a new model of type : Animated Java Entiy
  3. Make your entity
  4. Go in the animation section and create a new one
  5. Export the animation
  6. Install the Geckolib plugin in Mcreator and follow the instructions in the page
  7. Call the animations with a procedure

I didn't do it yet so its possible that there is some errors

EDIT: Newer guide: https://mcreator.net/forum/66357/feders-geckolib-plugin-tutorial

MCreator X Geckolib will be working from the second MCR Snapshot 2020.5 to beyond. Release 2020.4 and First Snapshot 2020.5 can't actually animate mobs for internal reasons.

 

We'll be surely making a video tutorial when the next Snapshot is released

@Orcinus thats because you either:

A. Not created an animation folder in your workspace folder which includes the (Entity_Name_Here).json file

or

B. The Name of the animation file (The part in bold) is not the same as the mobs Registry name.

 

This is what my mobs code for the animation was when made.

@Override
        public ResourceLocation getAnimationFileLocation() {
            return new ResourceLocation("REDACTED", "animations/crystal_golem_small.json");

 

This is the mobs code that matches the .json file and Registry name.

@Override
        public ResourceLocation getAnimationFileLocation() {
            return new ResourceLocation("REDACTED", "animations/crystal_golem.json");
