Features:
- This resource pack overhauls the idle, walking and swimming animation and gives some othe details to the player.


- This resource pack has been made with special compatibility for Parcool, Paraglider, Quark's emotes, Not Enough Animations, Personality, Amendments and Real Camera mod. Other mods' animations may work. The resource pack doesn't overwrite the arms animations at all so animations on them should play as normal. Not the case for the legs though
- For Parcool we recommend dissabling the "Fast Running" and "Fast Swimming" animators in the configuration menu (Use "Configured" for that) Animations/Animators.
- Also comes with fixes for Sleep Tight's sleeping position.



This pack is also available in Modrinth and Planet Minecraft.
