HELP Blockbench / Mcreator Animations
Sat, 06/06/2026 - 08:12 (edited)

I have used animations tons of time in the past but with Mcreator 2026.1 I can't seem to make them work

I use mcreator 2026.1 ,Neoforge

I use Blockbench 5

So few questions

  1. what do I have to use for my model in Blockbench: Bedrock Entity, Modded Entity, Geckolib entity, Optifine Entity ?

     2. what about entity model file exported from Blockbench: Java or Json ?

     3. what about animations instead: do I have to use Geckolib or not ?

     4. what about exported animation file: Java or Json ?

 

Please I really need help, I'm stucked

I advise reading the following wiki pages:

  1. https://mcreator.net/wiki/common-blockbench-issues-mcreator
  2. https://mcreator.net/wiki/blockbench-blockitem-display-settings

I also recommend using website search to check for similar topics that are already resolved :)

Are you sure about this ??

The blockbench modded entity workspace also supports animations though the way it's configured is still not possible to animate entities for the use of MCreator

 

So we can't  use the modded entity animations from Blockbench ?
