What it does

Ethecore works as a core library for mod authors. Its animation system is meant to sit alongside other utility mods, and it loads Geo-models that use Bedrock-format animations. The library also provides helpers for reading and writing NBT tags. Ethecore was designed as the foundation for Etheria and for later projects by the same author. Files cover Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and the mod is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
