NoEmotecraft

by TheMeko

NoEmotecraft is a Fabric fork of Emotecraft that lets players play emotes and custom animations on their character, shared with others in multiplayer.

FabricGNU General Public License v3.0 onlyOpen source1.21 – 1.21.1

What it does

Players pick from a broad set of emotions and trigger them through a selection interface. Each emotion plays as a custom animation on the player model, and the emotes can be used in single-player and on servers. The fork adds an update for the 1.21.x line.

Emotes are visible to other players on the same server, so interactions can be expressive and more immersive. The mod runs on Fabric in both the client and the server environment, so the server and every player need it installed. Builds cover 1.21 – 1.21.1, and the latest file is 2.5.2 for 1.21.1, released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only as open source. Sodium is an optional dependency that some players add for rendering.

Key features

  1. Diverse emotions

    A broad list of emotions, from happiness and sadness to anger, can be played on the character.

  2. Custom animations

    Each emotion is shown as an animation on the player model, which brings the expression to life.

  3. Interface for choosing emotes

    An in-game interface lets players select an emotion quickly and switch between them.

  4. Multiplayer emotes

    Players can share their emotes with friends on a server, so others see the same animations.
