Animations [WIP]

This feature is available in 1.20.1-1.5+ and will NOT be backported to any outdated versions.

Features

This update can support adding custom animations with or without overriding the default variants.
It was not possible to add animations via community pack, they require a resource pack.

  • Animations must be triggered via the command /swem rrp anim <Animation>
  • Animations will loop (repeat) until the command is repeated
  • Animations will not auto-fill (list possible options), creators should provide the valid options
  • Animations will be seen by any player with the animation pack installed

Important - Update Changes

This update has not made any significant changes to default animations.

[EXPAND] FAQs

⮞ CAN ANIMATIONS BE TRIGGERED WITHOUT COMMANDS?
No. While this is not ideal for discipline specific commands (ie dressage moves), there is currently no way to support keybind(s) to trigger custom animations. 

⮞ CAN ANIMATION PACKS MODIFY DEFAULT ANIMATIONS?
Yes, this was already possible and several packs exist to override specific default animations.

⮞ CAN I INSTALL MULTIPLE ANIMATION PACKS AT ONCE?
 [TBC]  Yes. Animation packs must include both the default animations and any custom animations, so if you install more than one pack, you should load any that override default animations at the top.

Example If you have an animation pack that adds new dressage moves and modifies default gait or jump animations, you should load this above any other packs that only add new animations. Since they include the unaltered default animations, they will override your modified defaults unless lower in the list.

⮞ WHERE CAN I SEE A LIST OF ANIMATION NAMES FOR THE TRIGGER COMMAND?
Animation names will not auto-fill when using the command. Short of opening up the files, it is recommended to confirm valid options with the creator. Check their content or site(s) for a list of valid commands before contacting them directly.

⮞ CAN I INSTALL ANIMATION PACKS IN A MULTIPLAYER SERVER?
 [TBC]  Animation packs should work on multiplayer servers, but all players require the resource pack to view the triggered animations. This should all work client-side, servers should not need to make any alterations to support custom animations (ie not required on the server). 

⮞ HOW DO ANIMATION PACKS WORK ON MULTIPLAYER SERVERS WITH KEYS / PERMISSIONS?
 [TBC]  

⮞ HOW DO ANIMATION PACKS APPEAR IF A PLAYER IS MISSING THE RESOURCE PACK?
 [TBC]  

Using An Animation Resource Pack

To install an animation resource pack, paste it into the resourcepack folder.
If you have multiple animation packs, put any packs that override default animations at the top.
