Method Summary
Modifier and TypeMethodDescriptionFallback consumer that can process a vanillaBakedModel
.default Consumer<BakedModel>
Deprecated.Returns aQuadEmitter
instance that emits directly to the render buffer.Used by models to send vertex data previously baked viaMeshBuilder
.void
Removes the transformation added by the last call topushTransform(QuadTransform)
.void
pushTransform
(RenderContext.QuadTransform transform) Causes all models/quads/meshes sent to this consumer to be transformed by the providedRenderContext.QuadTransform
that edits each quad before buffering.

Method Details
-
meshConsumer
Used by models to send vertex data previously baked viaMeshBuilder
. The fastest option and preferred whenever feasible. -
bakedModelConsumer
RenderContext.BakedModelConsumer bakedModelConsumer()Fallback consumer that can process a vanillaBakedModel
. Fabric causes vanilla baked models to send themselves via this interface. Can also be used by compound models that contain a mix of vanilla baked models, packaged quads and/or dynamic elements. -
getEmitter
QuadEmitter getEmitter()Returns aQuadEmitter
instance that emits directly to the render buffer. It remains necessary to callQuadEmitter.emit()
to output the quad.This method will always be less performant than passing pre-baked meshes via
meshConsumer()
. It should be used sparingly for model components that demand it - text, icons, dynamic indicators, or other elements that vary too much for static baking to be feasible.Calling this method invalidates any
QuadEmitter
returned earlier. Will be threadlocal/re-used - do not retain references. -
pushTransform
Causes all models/quads/meshes sent to this consumer to be transformed by the providedRenderContext.QuadTransform
that edits each quad before buffering. Quads in the mesh will be passed to theRenderContext.QuadTransform
for modification before offsets, face culling or lighting are applied. Meant for animation and mesh customization.You MUST call
popTransform()
after model is done outputting quads.More than one transformer can be added to the context. Transformers are applied in reverse order. (Last pushed is applied first.)
Meshes are never mutated by the transformer - only buffered quads. This ensures thread-safe use of meshes/models across multiple chunk builders.
-
popTransform
void popTransform()Removes the transformation added by the last call topushTransform(QuadTransform)
. MUST be called before exiting fromFabricBakedModel
.emit... methods. -
fallbackConsumer
Deprecated.Prefer using the more flexiblebakedModelConsumer()
.Fabric causes vanilla baked models to send themselves via this interface. Can also be used by compound models that contain a mix of vanilla baked models, packaged quads and/or dynamic elements.
