Build the preset

  1. Open the Give workbench from the Preset article or the top-level workbench.
  2. Set Edition and Version before editing detailed fields so the output family is correct.
  3. Configure the fields that matter for custom model data item preset: name, target, entity, item, effect, or resource data depending on the preset.
  4. Review the generated output and warnings before copying anything into Minecraft.
  5. Save the result to Project or Command Pack when the preset belongs to a larger setup.

Why this item presets article is useful

Custom model data item preset guide is useful because it turns a repeatable Minecraft command idea into a visible NBTForge workflow. Instead of rebuilding the command from memory, the preset keeps the important settings close to the screenshot and output.

The main search intent is "custom model data item preset". The article should answer that intent quickly, then show the exact module and controls that produce the command or datapack resource.

Version and output checks

NBTForge output can change by Java version family, especially for item components, legacy item NBT, entity passengers, and Bedrock-safe commands.

Use the generated screenshot and the output panel together. The screenshot explains the controls, while the output is the command or JSON that should be copied or saved.

  • Check Java or Bedrock before copying.
  • Read warnings when the preset uses Java-only data.
  • Use Project when the preset needs more than one command.
  • Keep the screenshot updated whenever the UI workflow changes.

FAQ

Can I reuse this custom model data item preset preset in another command?

Yes. Save the generated Give output to Project or copy the relevant item, entity, or resource settings into another NBTForge workflow.

Does this preset work in every Minecraft version?

Not always. Check the selected Edition and Version first. Java item components, legacy NBT, Bedrock ride behavior, and datapack formats can use different syntax.
