Open and edit your model in Blockbench

Steps (a Hytale model)

1. 1

   Install Blockbench (Windows, Mac or Linux) from blockbench.net.

2. 2

   Add the Hytale plugin once: in Blockbench open File, Plugins, search "Hytale" and install the Hytale models plugin.

3. 3

   Get the source files: More formats (or Other formats in My assets), then All files. Unzip it; the model, its texture and the Animations folder sit together. (Simple download also works: the .blockymodel and its PNG.)

4. 4

   In Blockbench: File, Open Model, choose the .blockymodel file. Keep the texture PNG in the same folder.

5. 5

   To see the animations, switch to the Animate tab at the top right and import the .blockyanim files. Press Space to play.

Steps (a Minecraft model)

1. 1

   Pick Blockbench file (the Simple download for a Minecraft model): one .bbmodel with the texture inside, at Minecraft size.

2. 2

   Open it in Blockbench with File, Open Model. No plugin needed.

Forge's own Editor instead

The Editor on the site opens your models, a file from your computer or a demo, and exports a Hytale Blockbench project (.bbmodel with the texture inside). See Fix a model by hand in the Editor.
