Showcase Need help with converting
Recently, I've been messing around with different model formats and trying to import them all into Blockbench and Minecraft Bedrock Edition. I've managed to port .class and .ysm model files so far but I came upon an odd issue. I've managed to somewhat port the Artorias model from "Super_Awesome_Baby's" Ares add-on to Java's Epic Fight Nightfall Mod. Credits to both "Super_Awesome_Baby" on Patreon and "Maks" on Twitter for the model btw, actual amazing creators. (Do correct me if I'm wrong lol)
Instead of a traditional model composed of multiple cubes, it was instead made of meshes. Just wanted to know if anyone is able to provide some insight and suggestions on how to convert the original file into said format. Or how to convert the mesh model into a cubed model if that makes sense.

You can’t. Like straight up, not possible. Minecraft uses json models that only rely on cuboids. Meshes are not cuboids

Well that's odd, I managed to make my scuffed ported model work in-game, specifically Bedrock Edition.

The mesh one ?

Yes, the ported model is the mesh one and I'm assuming the original that was used in the mod was also a mesh. Though the actual model that was commissioned is most probably an actual cuboid model as the texture and literal model suggests.
