Animorph

This mod is the client-side companion for the Animorph plugin. It allows you to visualize custom 3D models, advanced animations, and synchronized emotes on players.

What does this mod do?

When you connect to a server running the Animorph plugin, this mod takes care of:

Receiving and rendering custom 3D models
Playing animations with the Animation Controllers system
Synchronizing emotes across all players
Displaying the custom model in first person (arms)

Rendering

The mod replaces the vanilla player renderer with one based on GeckoLib, allowing:

Blockbench .geo.json models
Textures with layer system
Support for wide and slim variants
Model parts that can be hidden based on player settings (cape, hat, etc.)

Animations

Compatible with Bedrock Edition style animation system:

Animation Controllers with states and transitions
Molang Queries like query.is_on_ground, query.is_moving, query.yaw, query.pitch
Multiple controllers running simultaneously
Smooth transitions with configurable blend
Head tracking that follows camera direction

Animated camera

It's possible to animate the player's camera using a specific bone in the model. This allows creating camera effects during emotes or special animations.

Emotes

Emotes are automatically synchronized with the server. If a player starts an emote, you'll see it play at the exact moment thanks to the latency compensation system.

Equipment

If the model creator specifies it, armor can adapt to the 3D model. This requires creating the model for each equipment part (helmet, chestplate, leggings, boots, cape, elytra) separately. Hand items are rendered correctly based on model bones.

First Person

The first person arm also uses your custom model, rendered independently so body animations don't interfere.

Important

This mod does nothing on its own. You need to connect to a server running the Animorph plugin to receive models and animations.
