The ULTIMATE Blockbench Tutorial [Animation, Entity Models, Custom Item/Weapon ]

[@Legitimoose]

UPDATE: "Filter" button is now called "Tools"! UPDATE 2: The movement controls are different now! By default, Middle Click is rotate view, and Shift + Middle Click is drag view! helo minecraft live boyos ;^) sorry if I can't reply to everyone! Replying to comments on this one is extra hard because of how complex the project is. If you need help, send your resource pack in my discord! hope you enjoy your stay on this here legitimoose channel P.S. if you want to see some of the shenanigans you can get up to with blockbench, check out my two videos about biblical angels! kzbin.info/www/bejne/sInKiml6osp2bpI kzbin.info/www/bejne/rqDSpXd6lNh_mbM

Hey the tutorial pack link for 1.17 doesn't work Or maybe I'm just misunderstanding something I tried to copy it into notepad++ and it didnt work Penguin Cannon was not a resource pack i could select

Voice and mannerisms aren’t annoying, Well spoken with a well edited video, Intro isn’t him spam rotating the camera and crouching, tutorial shows all commands and inputs used, and the tutorial concept is adorable. This is probably the best Minecraft tutorial I’ve ever seen

[@Legitimoose]

Thanks! I'm glad you appreciate the effort that went into it! Spam rotating the camera and crouching for intros is one of my pet peeves lol. It's *so* tempting but so terrible to watch!

I'm an old guy and I like to see a Minecraft modder/player who's smart. You are smart and you're teaching people smart stuff. I just needed a Blockbench crash course, as I actually don't care about the modding, and this was great. (Though it was interesting to see Mojang actually parses math functions from JSON, note to myself) Kudos and many thanks for the video!

Finding your channel was like finding paradise. I love the Assassin's Creed series and now I'm thinking about the things I can model and the textures I can do.

I've been working on some custom shulker box models and animations but can't get it to work. Would love to see a tutorial made for custom shulker box models with the renaming feature.

[@Legitimoose]

Thanks! I'll definitely consider making more. There's a lot more to show! I know there's some awesome new tools coming out soon(ish) too, and once those are out I'll definitely try and be quick on the tutorial-making. I might also have to investigate the custom shulker box models, I pretty much assumed they were one of the models that didn't work (it seems like they do work though! according to internet at least) Glad you liked the video!

Well I managed to make a Nerf blaster by replacing the crossbow (its a pretty basic model) and then i made a sawed off shotgun and made a doom style reload animation for it. I had fun making these models and this is a great and recommended tutorial in my opinion simply because of the penguin gun example and the way of explaining, keep it up!

Amazing video! I am still having a problem tho. I'm making a horse a custom model, and whenever I try to add in "animations" to the jem file (because it didn't exist for the horse), I can't get any animations to work. All the premade horse folders in blockbench are untouched, and no matter which "submodels" I put the "animations" after, none work. The formatting and all the names for the parts are correct, too. Edit: Fixed! When putting in the animations, I needed to put "body:back_left_leg2" instead of just the body part. I don't know why that happened or why it needed to be done for me, but if anyone's having that problem, try doing "main_folder:body_part2": "body_part".

Is there a way to make these not replace existing mobs?

[@Legitimoose]

There _is_, but I didn't have time to include it in the video. Optifine doesn't support alternate _models_, but it does support alternate _textures_. The idea is that you make 2 models in 1 file. When one texture is used the other model has no texture. That would make a good tutorial topic actually... Although if you _need_ this now there aaaare some other tutorials that I _suppose_ could be used 😉 (they're actually quite good lol)

[@sudofry]

@@Legitimoose I just found this video yesterday. It's very good! But I was wondering if you ever did a follow up video on this without replacing the existing mobs or if you could perhaps point me to one of these other tutorials that explain how this is done?

Hi, yeaaah I get a lot of questions about that. I'll be more specific next time! First make sure you have file extensions turned on (On windows it's a checkbox under the View tab in file explorer).
