PlayerAnimator is a lightweight animation library mod for Minecraft that lets other mods add fluid, keyframed movements to the player model without breaking compatibility. It focuses on cosmetic changes, controlling position, rotation, scale, and even bending of body parts while keeping vanilla gameplay intact. Many cosmetic mods and custom content rely on it to drive expressive emotes, combat poses, and cinematic animations.
On a Minecraft server or solo world, PlayerAnimator works quietly in the background as a shared dependency, making packs feel more alive. At BoxToPlay, we use it to power modpacks where characters move in a more natural and immersive way.
