Why 6.0

Up to 5.0 I shipped one DBetterModel release per BetterModel version. BetterModel broke its API twice (1.x → 2.x → 3.x), so that matrix kept growing and every BM update stranded someone. 6.0 replaces it with a single universal jar: it detects the installed BetterModel at startup and picks the matching compat layer.

Historical table for pre-6.0 users:

What's in 6.0

• Universal compat core — version-neutral API with three statically compiled layers (v1/v2/v3), selected at startup. No private-field reflection anywhere. Unknown future BM majors (4.x+) get a best-effort probe instead of a crash.
• Capability system — each layer declares what the running BetterModel can do; scripts query it with <bm.capabilities>. Anything unavailable reports a clean error instead of a stacktrace.
• Blockbench keyframe signals — denizen:name{key=value} instruction keyframes fire the bm animation signal Denizen event on all supported BM lines, including 1.15.x and 2.x.
• bmsummon — location-bound models (dummy trackers) for props and cutscenes, no carrier entity needed.
• Full event suite — 14 script events: signals, animation start/end, per-player spawn/despawn, tracker lifecycle, hitbox damage/interact, mount/dismount, reload.
• Read/write bone API — the tags that were write-only in 5.x (glow, tint, billboard, view range, brightness, scale, offset, item...) now read back too.
• skin bone mechanism — apply a player's skin part to a bone as an adjust (skin:[part=head;from=<player>]), the modern take on bmpart.
• Legacy aliases restored — world_rotation, bone bm_entity, lerp_frames work again, so 3.x/4.x-era scripts run as-is.
• 100% backward compatible — every 5.0 script runs unchanged.
• Experimental — a keyframe-to-script bridge and Folia-ready internals; see docs/EXPERIMENTAL.md.

DBetterModel vs denizen-utilities (BetterModel bridge)

Both bridge BetterModel into Denizen. Verified against denizen-utilities 2.8.x (compiled against bettermodel-bukkit-api:3.0.1); the table lists only source-verifiable differences, not a quality judgement.

Editor setup (VS Code)

The Denizen extension's script checker doesn't know DBetterModel's object types out of the box, so it flags bmentity@/bmmodel@/bmbone@ tags as unknown. Teach it: Settings (Ctrl+,) → search denizenscript → Denizenscript: Extra Sources → add
