About Not Enough Animations
Not Enough Animations adds missing first-person animations to third-person view, improving visual immersion. It works standalone or with First-Person Mod, offering customizable visuals without server-side changes.
Animations include eating/drinking, shield blocking, boat rowing, and compass interaction. These refine movement mechanics and make actions feel more natural in third-person.
Best for players who prioritize visual polish and immersion. Works well in modpacks with other visual mods, enhancing consistency without conflicting with vanilla mechanics.
The mod focuses on refining existing animations rather than adding new mechanics, making it a subtle but impactful addition to any modpack focused on realism or aesthetics.
