Bedrock Entity Models

by Reverie Projects

Bedrock Entity Models lets Bedrock Edition entity models render natively in Java Edition, and it is a client-side mod for Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt.

FabricNeoForgeQuiltClient-side onlyAll rights reserved26.1 – 26.3

What it does

The mod parses Bedrock geometry files at runtime and converts them into Java entity model renderers, so models built for Bedrock can be displayed in Java. Entity appearance is set through Bedrock-style .entity.json files, which decide how each model is configured for a given mob.

The mod is meant to be used alongside resource packs that bring Bedrock Edition entity models. Only the client needs it, so players install it and servers do not. Fabric API is required on Fabric, and Mod Menu is optional and adds a configuration screen. Files cover game versions 26.1 – 26.3, with the latest build for 26.3, and the mod is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.

Key features

  1. Bedrock model loading

    Geometry files in the Bedrock format are parsed at runtime and converted into Java entity model renderers.

  2. Client entity definitions

    Bedrock-style .entity.json files configure which models and textures a given mob uses.

  3. Forced adult mob models

    Baby mobs can be shown with the adult model set, instead of a scaled version of the adult model.

How it compares

Full comparison

BlueMap Entities is server-side only and open source under the MIT License, supporting Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt. Baby Zombie and villager old model restorer is also client-side only and open source under the MIT License, but it is a Fabric-only mod, so it restores older mob models rather than loading Bedrock files.

Questions

Does Bedrock Entity Models need Fabric API?

Yes. Fabric API is a required dependency on Fabric, and it must be installed next to the mod.

Does the server need Bedrock Entity Models?

No. It is installed on the player's side alone, so servers need nothing.

Which loader should be used for 26.3?

Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt all have files for 26.3, and the latest Fabric and Quilt files are both 26.3-1.1.2+fabric.
