Smoother Server Cosmetics
by AmoAster
Smoother Server Cosmetics makes server-side cosmetics and item displays riding the player follow body rotation without jitter on Fabric.
What it does
Cosmetics attached to a player on the server, such as item display entities, turn smoothly with the player's body y-rotation instead of snapping between positions. The same applies to any other item display entity that rides the player. The change works through a single mixin, and the cosmetics are hidden from the player's own first-person view.
Key features
Smooth body rotation
Display entities riding a player track the player's body y-rotation in small steps rather than jumping.
Hidden in first person
Cosmetics riding the player are not drawn in first-person view, so they do not block the screen.
Single mixin
The whole change is one mixin, with no other behavior added to the game.
