EMF Compat: Carry On
by stradat
EMF Compat: Carry On makes the Carry On carry poses display correctly on animated EMF player models, and it needs Carry On and EMF Compat: Core to run.
What it does
When a player carries a block entity or a mob, the arms stay raised in a natural pose instead of snapping back. In both third-person camera directions, objects a player carries stay attached to hands animated by EMF, and mobs being carried keep the model texture supplied by their resource pack.
The mod is client-side only, so only the client needs it and a server can run without it. Carry On and EMF Compat: Core are required dependencies. It is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with builds for 1.20.1, 1.21.1, 1.21.11, 26.1.2, 26.2 and 26.3, and the code is licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, so it is open source.

What the author says
A small client-side mod that makes Carry On carry poses work correctly with Entity Model Features player models. Tested with Fresh Animations: Player Extension but it should work with any player animation resource pack.
