### 🎮 What it does
Have you ever noticed how your Minecraft character holds items… _but doesn’t look like they actually hold them?_
**Hold My Items** fixes that!
This mod **renders your character's arm** whenever you hold an item, giving you the impression that your character is physically holding it — just like in real life!
It’s subtle, but it adds a huge amount of immersion to your gameplay.

- Also renders the **off-hand arm** with proper animation and orientation
- MB-3D Items Pack support (_change config value_)
- Adds **contextual animations** when: (Swimming, Crawling, Climbing, Holding items like lanterns or maps)
- Fully client-side — **does not require installation on servers**
- **Lightweight and compatible with most mods**
### 🧱 Modpack Friendly
Yes! This mod is 100% client-side.
