📋 About This Mod
[!(https://raw.githubusercontent.com/intergrav/devins-badges/refs/heads/v3/assets/cozy/available/github_64h.png)](https://github.com/Nico44YT/ModernModelFormat) [!(https://github.com/intergrav/devins-badges/blob/v3/assets/cozy/documentation/issues_64h.png?raw=true)](https://github.com/Nico44YT/ModernModelFormat/issues)
Allows the use of the `1. 21. 11` model format in older versions with the help of black magic, specifically allowing all three axis (XYZ) rotation and incrementes larger/smaller than 22. 5°, additionally removing the 3x3x3 size constraint.
