No Death Animation (+)
by gsd
No Death Animation (+) strips out the vanilla death sequence on the client, so a fallen entity no longer tilts over and the red screen fades without a delay.
What it does
The mod overhauls how damage and death look on the client. Instead of the usual slow fall and lingering pose, a dying entity stands still for about one second before it vanishes. Its natural skin colors stay intact rather than washing out to red. Files are published for Fabric only, across 24 release versions, 1.19 – 1.21.11, with 1.0.0 for 1.21.11 as the latest file. The mod is client-side only, so only the player's client needs it, and it is released under the MIT License but is not open source.
Key features
Instant death view
A dying entity freezes for about a second and then disappears, rather than falling over horizontally.
No red death tint
The red color overlay that normally covers a dying entity is removed, so its skin colors remain visible.
No red damage tint
Taking damage no longer flashes the entity red for an extended time, which keeps combat readable.
