thanks!!! help me alot

@unborn aurora I realized that when converting the animation tab disappeared, how do I make animations in this case?

[unborn aurora]

Java's Block/Item model format has no concept of animation (not counting flipbook textures)

[ruby spoke]

But how do people usually go about having animated models?

[unborn aurora]

Bunch of armor stands or item display entities with a bunch of item models (one per bone) that get moved/rotated via a plugin or data pack to fake an animation.

or faking it as well as possible with animated textures, depends on the kind of animation to be fair.

there's a possibilty to use generic models in Minecraft, tho idk how

[unborn aurora]

Which is either via some external tool or plugin get converted into a bunch of item models and then fake animated (moving/rotating around the entity holding/displaying that item) via data packs or plugins.
