First Person Body
by Seps1s
Players who dislike the floating hands of first-person view can use First Person Body to see their own arms, legs and torso.
What it does
First Person Body renders the player's 3D character model in first-person view, so the legs, torso and arms appear on screen and move with the player's actions. Armor and skin show on the body as well. The mod is for Forge 1.20.1 only.
Key features
Visible full body
Looking down shows the legs, torso and arms, rather than the floating hands of the default first-person view.
Natural movement
The rendered body moves with walking, mining and other actions, using the same 3D model as third-person view.
Armor and skin
Worn armor and the chosen player skin are drawn on the visible body during first-person play.

How it compares
First Person View is a Forge mod for 1.12.2 under All rights reserved, while First Person Body targets 1.20.1. Better Character works on both sides for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, so servers must also run it, whereas First Person Body needs only the client and runs on multiplayer servers without being installed there.
