The AniMod
Create a Minecraft mod (Fabric) that adds an in-game Animation Creator tool. The mod should allow players to type a text prompt to generate custom animations...
The AniMod - Animation Creator

Using Animation Blocks
- Animation Station - Craft and place to open the animation editor

Tips & Tricks
- Be descriptive in your prompts! "Angry stomping walk" creates better animations than just "walk"
- Use the Preview button to test before saving
- Share your animation files in the
theanimod/animationsfolder - Animations persist between game sessions automatically
Known Limitations
Some complex animations may require multiple attempts to get the desired result. The preview system works best in third-person view.
