Alien Evolution: First-person Model

by RetroParadox

Alien Evolution: First-person Model is a Forge compatibility bridge that makes the First-person Model and Alien Evolution mods work together on 1.20.1.

What it does

The bridge exists because the two mods were heavily incompatible when used together. Many aliens have unique body shapes, and with the default first-person rendering the view could be completely blocked, for example by looking down into a model that covers the screen. Players who combined the two mods faced major problems.

The bridge automatically detects an alien transformation and adjusts the camera to match, giving a proper first-person view of the alien. Both Alien Evolution and First-person Model are required, and Paper Doll is an optional dependency. The project is still in heavy development, so some features work perfectly while others do not yet. It is published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.20.1.

The mod runs on the client alone, so players need it and servers do not. The latest Forge build is 1.0.9 for 1.20.1, released on 2026-03-27 on the beta channel. The code is released under All rights reserved, and the project is not open source.

Key features

  1. Automatic camera adjustment

    The camera switches to suit each alien transformation, so the first-person view stays usable for different body shapes.

  2. Unobstructed first-person view

    Alien models that would otherwise cover the screen when looking down are kept out of the way of the view.

  3. Combined use of two mods

    Alien Evolution and First-person Model can be played together, with a compatibility layer between them.

  4. Early development build

    Some features are not finished yet, and the mod carries an early development warning for that reason.
