I've made some animated java item models with the help of a website https://vberlier.github.io/animated-models/ but I think it's outdated? It doesn't work anymore and I don't know if there's another way to do this. I looked it up but I only see animated Optifine Entities or other things. Is there any way to animate Java block/item models?

Should still work the same as always.
What "doesn't work" exactly?
jade hill
The item doesn't animate. It stays on the first frame and the animation doesn't start

Are you using Optifine (or any other mods)?
If yes, make sure animated textures aren't disabled
jade hill
I have that all installed and enabled
ivory quartz
Are you sure it's not just still using the original not-animated texture 🤔 ?
jade hill
Yes I just checked to be sure. Can it be possible that it doesn't work because it is an item with a CustomModelData?
ivory quartz
nah, that doesn't matter
could you send your current resource pack? (unless there is a lot of other stuff in there)
jade hill
Sure. I'll put the model I'm working on rn in a different pack
Ignore the textures of the model. Still have to work on that. The idea is that it's legs and tail are moving
I play on 1.20.1 btw (while using opfifabric and optifine)

hmm, the files themselves look fine, will check if it's fine ingame too or not
also, small tip:
I'd suggest having a seperate texture for static and animated parts
Due to how the fake animation is done the texture becomes large really fast, so separating the parts that stay the same every frame will help reduce its size by quite a bit.

yeah, animates just fine for me ingame
@jade hill
so definitely some Optifine setting or problem
jade hill
Okay. I’ll check what’s wrong. Thanks for your help
