Description
Eating Animation Fork
A simple, client-side Fabric and NeoForge mod that adds smooth 3-stage sprite animations for eating food and drinking potions in Minecraft. Watch your apple get smaller bite-by-bite, your bread tear apart, your potion bottle empty sip-by-sip — all in your hand, in the hotbar, and in the inventory.
Unofficial fork of the beloved Eating Animation mod by
theone_ss, ported to Fabric and NeoForge for modern Minecraft versions using the new 1.21.4+ item model definition system. Original mod is MIT licensed; this fork is MIT licensed too. Full credit to the original author.
Features
- All vanilla foods & drinks animated — every food item in the game has its own custom 3-frame eating animation.
- Bundled mod-support resource pack — ships with a built-in, default-enabled resource pack that adds eating animations for 280+ food items across 15 popular mods:
- Adorn (4 items) — hot chocolate, glow berry tea, sweet berry juice, nether wart coffee
- Additional Additions (4 items) — berry pie, chicken nugget, fried egg, honeyed apple
- BetterEnd (14 items)
- BetterNether (7 items)
- Botania (2 items)
- Create (5 items)
- Duckling (1 item)
- Expanded Delight (33 items)
- Farmer's Delight (all items)
- Food Plus ID (93 items)
- Hybrid-Aquatic (12 items)
- Naturalist (11 items)
- Snow Pig (2 items)
- The Bumblezone (5 items)
- Winterly (3 items)
- Works everywhere — in your hand, in the hotbar, in the inventory, and on other players. Anywhere items render, the animation plays.
- Pure client-side — no server install required. Drop the jar in your
mods/folder and you're done. Works on vanilla servers too. - No performance impact — uses Minecraft's native item model system, no tick events, no mixins, no per-frame rendering hooks.
- Dual loader support — available for both Fabric and NeoForge. Pick the jar that matches your loader.

Known issues / FAQ
Q: The mod doesn't load / shows as incompatible in MultiMC / Prism Launcher. A: Make sure you downloaded the jar that matches your loader (Fabric or NeoForge) and your Minecraft version. The Fabric and NeoForge jars are NOT interchangeable — check the filename before installing.
Q: Does this work on servers? A: Yes — it's purely client-side. You can join any vanilla server and the animations will work. The server doesn't need this mod installed.
Q: Can I use this in my modpack?
A: Yes — MIT licensed, no permission needed. Just include the jar in your modpack and credit the original author (theone_ss) and this fork.
Q: Will this be ported to Forge / Quilt? A: Not by me. The mod is MIT licensed, so anyone is welcome to port it.
