## 📚 Notices Starting with this version, BetterModel is officially designated as v2.0.0. Please be aware that this update introduces several Breaking Changes. ## ✨ Feats ### Fabric platform port BetterModel now supports the Fabric platform as a server-side mod. - Supported: Dedicated Server, Integrated Server (Singleplayer) - Unsupported: Hybrid servers (e.g., Arclight, Mohist) ### Keyframe optimization `AnimationMovement` has been deprecated and replaced by the highly optimized `AnimationKeyframe`. This change introduces a more efficient data access structure, significantly improving animation processing performance. ### ModelAssetsEvent The new `ModelAssetsEvent` allows you to inject BlockBench models from external resources directly into the BetterModel reload pipeline. This enables seamless integration of custom assets within the engine's internal build process. ### Others - feat: optimize IK solver ## 🚀 Breaking Changes ### Publishing & Dependencies The legacy `io.github.toxicity188:bettermodel` package is no longer published. Starting with v2.0.0, the project is split into the following modules: - `bettermodel-api`: Common API module. - `bettermodel-core`: Internal core module (Internal use only). - `bettermodel-bukkit-api`: API for Bukkit-based environments (Spigot, Paper, etc.). - `bettermodel-fabric`: Server-side mod implementation for Fabric. Please refer to `README.md` for detailed build script instructions.

Gradle (Kotlin)

#### Release ```kotlin repositories { mavenCentral() maven("https://maven.blamejared.com/") // For transitive dependency in bettermodel-fabric maven("https://maven.nucleoid.xyz/") // For transitive dependency in bettermodel-fabric } dependencies { compileOnly("io.github.toxicity188:bettermodel-bukkit-api:VERSION") // bukkit(spigot, paper, etc) api //modApi("io.github.toxicity188:bettermodel-fabric:VERSION") // mod(fabric) } ``` #### Snapshot ```kotlin repositories { maven("https://maven.pkg.github.com/toxicity188/BetterModel") { credentials { username = YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME password = YOUR_GITHUB_TOKEN } } maven("https://maven.blamejared.com/") // For transitive dependency in bettermodel-fabric maven("https://maven.nucleoid.xyz/") // For transitive dependency in bettermodel-fabric } dependencies { compileOnly("io.github.toxicity188:bettermodel-bukkit-api:VERSION-SNAPSHOT") // bukkit(spigot, paper, etc) api //modApi("io.github.toxicity188:bettermodel-fabric:VERSION-SNAPSHOT") // mod(fabric) } ```

### API & Event System - **Platform Adapters**: You must now use the appropriate adapter for your platform (e.g., `BukkitAdapter`, `FabricAdapter`). - **Event Bus**: `BetterModelEventBus` (accessible via BetterModel#eventBus) has been introduced. - **New Entrypoints**: Dedicated entrypoints for each platform have been introduced to provide platform-specific functionalities: - `BetterModelBukkit`: Use `BetterModelBukkit#platform()` to access Bukkit-specific APIs. - `BetterModelFabric`: Use `BetterModelFabric#platform()` to access Fabric-specific APIs.

Adapter API Usage (Bukkit)

```java EntityTracker tracker = BetterModel.model("demon_knight") .map(r -> r.create(BukkitAdapter.adapt(entity), TrackerModifier.DEFAULT, t -> t.update(TrackerUpdateAction.tint(0x0026FF)))) .orElse(null); ```

Event API Usage (Bukkit)

```java import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin; import kr.toxicity.model.api.bukkit.BetterModelBukkit; import kr.toxicity.model.api.data.ModelAsset; import kr.toxicity.model.api.data.renderer.ModelRenderer; import kr.toxicity.model.api.event.ModelAssetsEvent; import java.util.*; public class YourPlugin extends JavaPlugin { @Override public void onEnable() { BetterModelBukkit.platform().eventBus().subscribe(this, ModelAssetsEvent.class, event -> { if (event.type() == ModelRenderer.Type.PLAYER) event.addAsset(ModelAsset.of( "knight", () -> Objects.requireNonNull(getResource("knight.bbmodel")) )); }); } } ```

### Bukkit-specific Event Support While the core Event API is now platform-agnostic, you can still utilize Bukkit's Event API via **`BetterModelBukkitEvent`**. This ensures seamless integration with the existing Bukkit event lifecycle, which is particularly useful for tools like **Skript** or other plugins that rely on Bukkit-native events.

Event handling with Bukkit (Skript)

``` import: kr.toxicity.model.api.bukkit.event.BetterModelBukkitEvent kr.toxicity.model.api.event.CreateEntityTrackerEvent on BetterModelBukkitEvent: set {_original} to event.as(CreateEntityTrackerEvent.class) {_original} is set broadcast {_original}.tracker().name() ```

### Bukkit Compatibility To optimize the project, support for the following versions (which showed low usage) has been removed: - 1.20.5 ~ 1.20.6 - 1.21.2 ~ 1.21.3 ## 🧹 Chores - chore(deps): update gradle to v9.3.1 - fix(deps): update dependency com.nexomc:nexo to v1.18.0 - chore(deps): update plugin com.vanniktech.maven.publish to v0.36.0 - chore: update dependency io.github.toxicity188:armormodel to v1.0.2 [Full change log](https://github.com/toxicity188/BetterModel/compare/1.15.2...2.0.0)
