What is a BBMODEL file?
A BBMODEL file is a project created by Blockbench, an open-source 3D model editor. It contains JSON-like plain text information about a 3D model and may include one or more .PNG or .TGA textures. Blockbench users save projects as BBMODEL files when creating and modifying 3D models for people, creatures, animals, and objects.
More Information
3D artists typically use Blockbench to create and edit 3D models featured in video games, including Minecraft. The BBMODEL file is the primary file type associated with Blockbench.
When you save a 3D model project by selecting File → Save Project As, you preserve your work in the BBMODEL file. After saving the project, you can close and reopen it for further editing.
How to open a BBMODEL file
You can open BBMODEL files with Blockbench (multiplatform). For example, to open a BBMODEL file, select File → Open Model.
Since BBMODEL files contain plain text, you can also open them with a text editor, such as Microsoft Notepad, Apple TextEdit, or gedit. However, opening BBMODEL files with a text editor will appear different from opening them with Blockbench.
