BetterModel

⚡ What is BetterModel?

This plugin implements fully server-side 3D model by using an item display entity packet.

• Importing Generic BlockBench model .bbmodel
• Auto-generating resource pack
• Playing animation
• Syncing with base entity
• Custom hit box
• Supports 12-limb player animation

🔥 Why do I create BetterModel even though ModelEngine already exists?

The main reason I created it is:

• To reduce network cost—MEG’s network optimization is outdated and insufficient for modern servers.
• To enable faster updates—We can’t afford to wait for MEG’s slow update cycle anymore.
• To provide a more flexible API—MEG is closed-source with a very limited API, which makes extending or integrating difficult.
• To restore vanilla behavior-MEG breaks several vanilla entity features and physics, which this project aims to fix.

Also, you can refer my document to compare both ModelEngine and BetterModel.

🌎 Generic BlockBench model with animation

This plugin, of course, implements a Generic BlockBench model with animation.

Custom hitbox

This plugin provides custom hitbox both client and server. (tracking animation rotation)

MythicMobs support

Like MEG, This plugin supports MythicMobs, you can use some MEG's mechanics in BetterModel too.

💡 Player model with animation
