I'm trying to animate in bb but all the tutorials have an animation pane and I don't? I want to animate a java model but i cant?

Anyone know how?

What model type are you using?

#

Is it a block, entity, generic, or if you have the plugin, geckolib

#

#

You can check by pressing the ‘file’ button at the top, ‘convert’ then it will say something like “current format” with a drop down to convert to a different type.

#

Only generic and entities have animations, but geckolib blocks can have animations.
