Animactor

Clone any online player into a poseable actor and animate them frame-by-frame — right inside Minecraft, no external rigging tools needed.

Animactor turns a plain armor stand into a stand-in for a real player: it wears their skin, you pose its limbs, record keyframes, and play back a smooth animation. Built to pair with Horror Cinema Tools — running /cinema play will animate your actor alongside the camera automatically.

Features

• Player cloning — spawn an armor-stand actor wearing an online player's skin with one command.
• Pose control — rotate head, body, arms, and legs independently, in degrees.
• Keyframe animation — record a sequence of poses and play them back with smooth interpolation.
• HorrorCinema integration — /cinema play triggers your actor's animation automatically, alongside the camera flythrough. Works standalone too; nothing breaks if HorrorCinema isn't installed or you haven't copied an actor yet.

Commands

• /animactor copy <player> — clone an online player into an actor at your current position
• /animactor pose <part> <x> <y> <z> — instantly rotate a body part (degrees). Parts: head, body, left_arm, right_arm, left_leg, right_leg
• /animactor key add — record the actor's current pose as a keyframe
• /animactor key clear — clear all recorded keyframes
• /animactor play <ticksPerSegment> [loop] — play back the recorded pose animation
• /animactor stop — stop playback
• /animactor remove — despawn the actor

How to use

1. Have the player you want to clone online, then run /animactor copy <player> where you want the actor to stand.
2. Pose the actor for your first frame with /animactor pose <part> <x> <y> <z> (repeat per body part), then run /animactor key add to save it.
3. Adjust the pose (and position, if you move the actor) for the next frame, /animactor key add again. Repeat for as many frames as you need — at least 2.
4. Run /animactor play 40 [loop] (adjust the number for slower/faster transitions) to play the pose animation.
5. Filming a scene with Horror Cinema Tools? Just build your camera path as usual and run /cinema play <ticksPerSegment> [loop] — the actor's animation starts automatically alongside the camera.
6. Record your screen with any external tool (OBS, etc.) while it plays.
