[1.16.5] Animated model (possible with json models)

[Nyko]

I'm currently working on a mod that should add industry things.

now i have encountered the following problem:

when my machine has got electricity, a wheel should turn

now my question is it possible to move a part / group of the json model?

 

I looked at the bell as an example and tried to understand how exactly Minecraft annoyed the bell to ring,

but I don't understand where minecraft gets the model of the bell from.

 

how does minecraft create the model?

The part of the bell that moves is in BellTileEntityRenderer class and the static parts are in json.

in the model of the bell or in which json file do you mean?

not a json file, a java class

okay I think my question was not very clear,

I know that a TER needs a model but where does the Bell TER

get the model from since it does not have the eg. the shulkerchest has its own Java model

there is no json file, the model is defined in the class itself

look at the Bell TER constructor
