Posted July 10, 20178 yr Hello there. At the Moment I'm working on updating a mod from 1.7 to 1.8, but I got a Problem with one of my custom TileEntities. I'm facing the Problem that Minecraft 1.7 wasn't using model files. Now I got a ModelRenderer Class for my Block which I don't know how to register to avoid using a model.json file. Is it even possible in 1.8 to use an ModelRenderer as in 1.7? I'm thankful for any response.
July 10, 20178 yr You shouldn't avoid JSON models. Avoiding them will be harder than making a few model files. Don't PM me with questions. They will be ignored! Make a thread on the appropriate board for support. 1.12 -> 1.13 primer by williewillus. 1.7.10 and older versions of Minecraft are no longer supported due to it's age! Update to the latest version for support. http://www.howoldisminecraft1710.today/
July 10, 20178 yr Json models are super easy to work with. Recreating your models in them isn't too bad, though Ido recommend using an external program for the models, blockstates are simple enough to do by hand. McCrayfish's program is good. Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable. If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME. Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice. Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked. DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.

Would this keep my old texture file intact?
July 10, 20178 yr Yes, but no, but yes. Yes: you don't need to do anything with your texture file No: you'll have to fiddle with the output (or blockstate file) to correct the reference to your texture (McCrayfishs's to doesn't know your modid) Yes: it'll work just fine except for that Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable.

July 11, 20178 yr Author Okay thank you. I'll try to convert my hardcoded model to a json model file. One last question. Does the model have any effects on my rendering? Is it just for the hitbox of my block?
July 11, 20178 yr Model is just for visual fluff. Everything else is controlled by...well...everything else.
