I am making a bird, how do I make the wings "flap" quickly?

I have tried the "leg swing" animations, but they only work when the mob is moving. I have also tried constant animations, but that doesn't flap, it just spins.

Is there a way to make the wings flap? Thanks!

I didn’t even know you could animate JAVA entities in Blockbench, and I don’t think I have seen anything about custom animation support in MCreator

It’s alright, and I might be able to figure it out considering how basic the animation I need is. I have already analyzed the animation templates MCreator has, so I may be able to figure it out myself :)

You can achieve most of the basic animations using MCreator's animation templates.

But for complex animation sequences, possibly predefined, code will be needed at this point.
