[Support] Minecraft Bedrock China Polymesh Model

[MC874]

Introduction

Hi @Shadowkitten47 ! It's been a while, just visited your github today and then I found this interesting repository :D. Since Blockbench wont support Bedrock Polymesh, this plugin is surely appreciated. Talking about the Bedrock Polymesh, it wouldn't hurt to more extend this plugin so that it can also support Minecraft Bedrock China Edition Polymesh model.

Background

Minecraft China Edition have both Java & Bedrock, it's basically an edition built on top of vanilla Minecraft. Even though Minecraft Bedrock has support with Polymesh through it's Persona skins, but for some reason; Minecraft Bedrock China Edition just added another Polymesh format differents from what vanilla Minecraft Bedrock Polymesh have.

Implementation

Minecraft China Edition uses separate format consisting: Polymesh, Skeleton and Animations:

Polymesh

{"mesh":[ {"material": "path/to/texture", "indices":[ [0,0,0] ], "vertices":[ {"pos": [0,0,0], "normal": [0,0,0], "uvcoord": [0,0], "weight": ["bones_name", 0] }]}

Skeleton

{"skeleton":[ {"name": "skeleton_name", "parent": "parent_to_skeleton", "initpos": [0,0,0], "initquaternion": [0,0,0,0], "initscale": [0,0,0], "offmtx":[ [0,0,0] ], "boundingbox":[ [0,0,0] ]} ]}

Animation

{"animation":{ "name": "animation_name", "ID": "IDK_what", "length": 1.0, "tracksize": 37, "tracks":[ {"bone": "bones_name", "chanelMask": 3, "keyFramesSize": 31, "keyframes":[ {"time": 0.0, "pos": [0,0,0], "quaternion": [0,0,0,0], "scale": [0,0,0]} ]} ]}}

I'm sorry but I won't do it. Or at least not for awhile. I saw you made an issue on the main Block Bench GitHub, he might do it since he already added it to planning. And it would be better for you to just make your own plugin to be honest, if he changes his mind. I don't have Chinese Minecraft and I honestly don't know where to begin or like anything at all. Also, I'm bad at programming.

That's alright, just feel free. I don't familiar with developing plugins either. Not to mention, seeing the past github ticket, looks like BlockBench isn't prioritizing mesh feature. Also, if you want to play around with Minecraft Chinese, you can contact me right away.
