Description
 This mod enables rendering of the player and entity equipped armor/elytra/~~harness~~ in 3D and is compatible with most standard armor mods, dyes, and trims with support for 16x resource packs. This project is still a beta stage so expect few visual bugs. Although extensive precautions were taken to prevent frame rate drops, performance may decrease in areas with many armored entities. This is due to the dynamic armor model which ensures compatibility across all armors, but comes at a slight performance cost even when using optimization mods. 🔗 **[ALSO ON BEDROCK EDITION](https://curseforge.com/minecraft-bedrock/texture-packs/armor-3d)** ## 🟣 YOUTUBE SHOWCASES ## 🟠 PLANNED FEATURES - 3D Saddles (with modded/resource pack support) - 3D Ghast Harness (with modded/resource pack support) - 3D Wolf Armor (with modded/resource pack support) - 3D Horse Armor (with modded/resource pack support) - 3D Nautilus Armor (with modded/resource pack support) - Better Optimization - 32x Resource Pack Support - Compatibility with Curios API ## 🔵 DEPENDENCIES - [Entity Model Features](https://modrinth.com/mod/entity-model-features) (2.4 or above) ## 🟢 COMPATIBILITES ⚠️ Works, but slightly buggy. - [3D Skin Layers](https://modrinth.com/mod/3dskinlayers) - [Fresh Animations](https://modrinth.com/resourcepack/fresh-animations) (and all extensions) - [Fresh Moves](https://modrinth.com/resourcepack/tras-fresh-player) - [Better Combat](https://modrinth.com/mod/better-combat) - [Not Enough Animations](https://modrinth.com/mod/not-enough-animations) - [First-person Model](https://modrinth.com/mod/first-person-model) - ⚠️ [Show Me Your Skin!](https://modrinth.com/mod/show-me-your-skin) - [Elytra Physics](https://modrinth.com/mod/elytra-physics) - [3D Hands](https://modrinth.com/mod/hands-3d) - [Aether](https://modrinth.com/mod/aether) (gloves and pendants) - [Expanded Combat](https://modrinth.com/mod/expanded-combat) (gauntlets) - [MmmMmmMmmMmm](https://modrinth.com/mod/mmmmmmmmmmmm) - [Illagers Wear Armor](https://modrinth.com/mod/illagers-wear-armor) - [Corpse](https://modrinth.com/mod/corpse) - [Paper Doll](https://modrinth.com/mod/paper-doll) - [Easy NPC](https://modrinth.com/mod/easy-npc) - [Straw Statues](https://modrinth.com/mod/straw-statues) ## 🔴 INCOMPATIBILITES Any mod that adds new armor layers are currently incompatible. 3D Elytra and Ghast Harness will break on all animation texture packs like Fresh Animations and Fresh Moves that require their own custom models.
