ClientSideHurtAnimations
by Refinement
ClientSideHurtAnimations lets a player's client play the hurt animation on selected entities, with separate switches for players and other mobs.
What it does
The mod plays a hurt animation on attacked entities on the client only. Its options choose which targets are affected: real players identified by a version 4 UUID, and other non-player entities such as zombies. Each group can be switched on or off in the config, and the mod changes nothing on the server side.
Installation needs Fabric API on Fabric, and YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL) on both loaders. Mod Menu is optional and adds a button that opens the config screen. Builds are published for Fabric and NeoForge across the 26.1 – 26.3 range, with 1.0.2 for 26.3 as the latest file, under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, which is open source.
Key features
Hurt animation on players
Attacked players can show the hurt animation on the client, controlled by a single switch.
Hurt animation on other entities
Non-player mobs such as zombies can be given the same client-side animation through their own option.
Real player filter
A separate option limits the animation to real players, identified by a version 4 UUID, leaving other player-like entities untouched.
Config screen through Mod Menu
With Mod Menu installed, the settings open from a button, and YACL provides the options screen itself.
