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.
This is a java plugin and requires java plugins to be enabled.

If I could make a suggestion, it would be cool to have blockstate groups, similar to the loot table element.
On each group, you could then select whether it's a numeric state, one with a string name, or a boolean, as well as give the group a name. Similar to how observers have multiple states. I know it is possible to just use numeric IDs for everything, but it would still be useful for remembering specific states, organization, and full debug stick compatibility.
This would take a ton more work, so I'm content with keeping things as they are. Blockstates are planned for MCreator, as well as block properties. So wait until those are out. When they do come, I'll update the plugin to add the blockstates from its elements to the blocks.
There is no need for a guide as this is a very easy to use plugin. You just enable java plugins which is stated in big bold letters in this page, and use one of the two compatible versions which are shown in the name of the file download. My plugins that require more than that to use have guides.
I have problem with the 2024.2 version of the plugin (mc: 1.20.1 forge). The workspace was created in 2024.1 but the plugin got added to it the first time in the 2024.2
Everytime I change a blockstate with a procedure and try it out ingame I get a missing texture. In the F3 menu it shows the correct blockstate. Does anyone what i could be doing wrong and if/or how I can fix that problem?
