Blender Bridge — changelog

Latest

Added

• Rigged characters now animate. If your model has an armature in Blender, it bends the same way in Minecraft — arms, legs, tails, wings, all of it. Before this, a rigged model loaded frozen in its bind pose.

• Five example creatures in the mobs folder to try it with: a lantern moth, a thicket stag, a reef drifter, a stone sentinel and an ember wyrm.

• Creature files are much shorter. Two words now describe a whole creature:

  { "kind": "hunter", "size": "large" }
  

  kind is peaceful, skittish, defensive, hunter or guardian. size is tiny, small, medium, large or huge. Anything you disagree with, you write down and yours wins.

• Plain names for the fiddly settings — sight, punch, sturdy, fireproof, night_only, group_size.

• Drops on one line: "minecraft:bone x0-2".

• Sounds on one line: name a sound family like "minecraft:entity.cow" and it finds the idle, hurt and death sounds itself.

• Creatures can set their own hitbox with width and height, so a big creature is big to hit.

• Models sit on the ground instead of sinking into it. A model built around the origin in Blender used to render half buried.

Fixed

• Creatures flash red when you hit them. There was no reaction at all before, so there was no way to tell a hit from a miss.
• Every creature shared one hitbox. A large creature had a small box around its feet, and you could swing straight through it.
• Shadows are sized to the creature rather than always the same.

WIKI will come when i have the time to make it
