JsonEM (Json Entity Models)
Library for modders, resource pack makers, and modpack makers to create and edit entity models WITH JSON Does not work with OptiFine format!
Generate Reference Entity Models: If you'd like to dump json versions of all entity models (vanilla or modded) so that you can edit them easily with resource packs or use them as examples, here's how:
Launch the game, and then open the configuration file located at .minecraft/config/jsonem.properties. Edit the second line of the file to be dump_models=true. Re-launch the game. Navigate to the folder .minecraft/jsonem_dump. Within this folder you should find all registered entity models dumped as json, formatted like a resource pack. Use this format when editing or adding models with a resource pack. Edit Models in Blockbench: To edit models in Blockbench, install the plugin located in this repository.
- Download the file jsonem_models.js from this GitHub repository
- In Blockbench, navigate to File > Plugins, and at the top of the dialog click the icon for Load Plugin from File. Choose the jsonem_models.js file.
- Navigate to File > New and choose JsonEM Java Entity Model to begin editing.
- You can also File > Open Model to import a JsonEM json model file, such as those dumped from the game.
- To export your model for use with JsonEM, navigate to File > Export > Export JsonEM Java Entity Model and save the file.
- For Resource Pack/Modpack Makers:

- When editing your resource pack/modpack resources, add entity model json files as they are formatted in the dumped model folder.
