Blockstates is a plugin which allows you to define multiple states in which your blocks change textures, models, bounding boxes and light levels. It introduces the blockstates mod element and multiple procedure blocks with which you can control the current blockstate your block uses.
IF YOU ARE UPDATING TO 2026.1 FROM 2025.3 OR OLDER, READ THE VERSION 1.9 CHANGELOG
This is a java plugin and requires java plugins to be enabled.
Changelog
v1.9
-THIS IS ONLY A CONVERTER AND SHOULD BE DELETED AFTER OPENING YOUR WORKSPACE WITH IT LOADED!
Simply load the plugin, open a workspace that used it for blockstates once,
and after verifying
everything was converted correctly, close
your workspace and delete the plugin.
Now, all the blockstates that previously used the blockstates mod element will be part of your blocks,
using the blockstates system introduced in 2026.1.

Hello, I'm back with some more suggestions for this plugin that would really come in handy:
Block layers - being able to enable and disable different parts of the block model and hitbox depending on variables, in a way that you can have more than one model enabled, this would be pretty life saving for complex connecting blocks;
Custom block tints - that allow you to change the color of the block's tint on the go;
Block Variants - being able to have the block's texture/model depend on the seed's coordinates, like grass having random texture rotation or stone having the texture randomly flipped;
And connected textures (if it's possible without an api).
I'd also like to ask if you could maybe make a plugin that adds the block types that are missing from Mcreator (signs, hanging signs, vines and ladders) and boats? These thinks would really be lifesaving, if you have the time pls do consider these things. Thank you!
If I add geckolib blockstates I'm doing it in geckolib elements. No reason to do it here.
