When I save a blockbench project it lets me save it as bbmodel and also a bunch of pngs of all the textures i have made.

is it possible to save the project as a single file instead of so many pngs?

or maybe like just set the project's folder so that i dont have to pick a directory for new textures each time?

File > Save Project (As) should already only prompt you to save the .bbmodel
You can also just ignore the .png save attempts and they will be included in the .bbmodel itself.

oh, but why do they even appear?

tiny stirrup oh, but why do they even appear?

Because you can still save .png files separately

#

And people might wanna reuse certain textures or edit them in other programs for example.

#

So having them only inside the bbmodel file would be counter productive for those cases.

#

So it gives the option to save them.
If you use Ctrl+S that's also the shortcut to save unsaved textures (as .png files).

i see, thanks for explaining this
is it possible to embed textures i already have outside of the bbmodel?

#

oh i got it. you just have to delete them from the pc's filesystem

#

thanks for the help
