Emote

Emote 0.6.0

Highlights

• Added a web converter for turning BD Engine projects into Emote datapacks.

  • Import projects directly in the browser and edit emote metadata.
  • Preview the model and manually assign head, body, arm, and leg parts.
  • The previous Python converter has been replaced by the web converter.

• Redesigned the emote datapack format.

  • Emote metadata is now stored in data/<namespace>/emote.json instead of a root-level emote-datapack.json.
  • A single datapack can now contain multiple emotes.
  • Example emote datapacks have been updated to the new format.

• Redesigned emote permission configuration.

  • packs.json now controls disabled emotes and permission-based emote access.
  • * can be used to grant access to every enabled emote.
  • The old emote_permission setting has been removed.

New Commands

• /emote list — Lists all registered emotes.
• /emote stop-all — Stops every active or pending emote.
• /emote enable <namespace> — Enables an emote and reloads the emote list.
• /emote disable <namespace> — Disables an emote and stops all active instances of it.

Playback Improvements

• Improved restoration of player state when an emote ends or is interrupted.
• Added equipment visibility handling during emote playback.
• Added support for stopping all emotes or all instances of a specific namespace.
• Added ordered skin-part markers for emotes made from multiple model pieces.
• Improved player skin-part detection and texture application.

Configuration and Stability

• Added schema_version to config.json.
• Invalid configuration files now leave the currently loaded configuration unchanged.
• Improved validation for invalid metadata, missing functions, duplicate namespaces, and duplicate command names.
• Enabling or disabling an emote through commands now automatically updates packs.json.
• Standardized indentation and line endings across the project.

Important

Emote datapacks and packs.json use a new format in version 0.6.0. Datapacks and configuration files created for older versions must be converted or updated using the new web converter and documentation.
