afaik no

not really, but may be doable

other mods that use obj models basically just load the file, process it, and then build a model using the data

i actually did this exact thing in uni a long time ago

[spice anvil]

but than it probably wouldn't be possible with kubejs, right?

[vague kestrel]

mmmmmh i wouldnt say impossible

[spice anvil]

kubejs can't read files other than jsons

[vague kestrel]

its difficult, with a lot of workarounds

[ocean tapir]

yes i know, i have copy an obj file (and mtl)

[vague kestrel]

but very difficult

would maybe be easier if you used a java class from a mod that does this

but im just speculating

either way, not easy, and requires a lot of JS and Java modding knowledge

[ocean tapir]

i think that mod with obj models don't have a specific class for that, i think it's on forge

im lost in a deep rabbithole trying to find out how mekanism does it lmao

I'm looking into the way Immersive Engineering does it's obj models, I'm seeing something about "forge:obj" and " "loader": "immersiveengineering:basic_split",".
But I don't understand enough of java and forge to be able to figure it out. Here's all the files for the crusher multiblock structure if it helps.
