Spawning a BDEngine Model

Command Blocks

Your model should be spawned using a Datapack or BDEngine file if the model has multiple commands and you plan to animate it.

• Follow the steps provided by BDEngine to spawn your model in your world

• Export your model using the Export to Minecraft option, then paste the generated commands into command blocks

Merging (Multi-Commands BDEngine Models)

• If your model has multiple commands, use a command block at the same location

• Standing at the command block's location, run /deu group selectnearest <distance>.

  • This will select a model created from one of the commands

• At the same location, run /deu group merge 0.5. This will merge with all groups within a 0.5 block radius from where the command was ran.

Datapack

You should already have the datapack of your BDEngine project downloaded

• Put your datapack in the DisplayEntityUtils plugin folder named bdenginedatapacks

• Run /deu bdengine convertanim <datapack-file> <desired-group-tag> <desired-animation-tag-prefix>

  This will convert both your model and animation into a format usable by DIsplayEntityUtils

  • The desired group tag will be the identifier used for your model, or group

  • The desired animation tag prefix will be used as a prefix for all converted animations

• Spawn the newly created group (model) with /deu group spawn <group-tag> local

BDEngine File

You should already have your .bdengine project file downloaded

• Put your .bdengine project file in the DisplayEntityUtils plugin folder named bdenginefiles

• Spawn a new group (model) at your location with /deu bdengine spawnmodel <file-name>
