Armo — Custom 3D Armors Tool & Spigot Plugin
Armo is a tool and Spigot plugin that lets server owners convert custom 3D armor models into game-ready assets.
It allows you to effortlessly convert .bbmodel (Blockbench) files into three distinct export formats, giving you total flexibility over client compatibility and performance.
Supported Export Formats
- Pure Vanilla (Core Shaders): Completely vanilla-compatible. Zero client-side mods required for players joining your server.
- JEM Only: Optimized for players running EMF/ETF or OptiFine.
- Hybrid (Both): Bundles Core Shaders and JEM models together to provide universal support in a single resource pack.
