EnchantMotion

EnchantMotion

A cinematic visual overhaul and animation engine for Minecraft enchanting.

Transform Minecraft's static enchanting into an alive, kinetic ritual.
No more flat UI slots and static tables. When you place your weapons, tools, or armor on the Enchanting Table, they physically levitate, lapis gems circle in celestial orbits, and the table surges with arcane energy.

✨ Features & Visual Physics

Dynamic Levitating Gear

• Weightless Levitation: Inserted items ascend smoothly from the ancient spellbook pages using Hermite easing, gently bobbing in mid-air.
• Authentic Extrusion: Rendered with authentic voxel thickness matching Minecraft’s iconic dropped-item aesthetic.

3D Orbiting Lapis Lazuli

• Celestial Ring System: Placed Lapis Lazuli enters a synchronized 3D planetary orbit around your hovering weapon.
• Bookshelf Power Scaling: The orbital rings dynamically intensify and scale based on nearby bookshelf power (Tiers 1, 2, and 3).

Kinetic Dash & Recoil Physics

• Sequential Impact Infusion: When an enchantment is bound, lapis gems launch inward one by one to strike and infuse your gear.
• Elastic Squash & Stretch: Each impact jars the item back with directional knockback, angular tilt, and physical spring recoil.
• Impact Flash Spikes: Bright energy flashes ripple across the item upon each collision.

Resonant Power Hum & Vibration

• High-Frequency Arcane Hum: Electric micro-vibrations surge through your item, ramping up in frequency and amplitude as arcane energy builds toward completion.

Progressive Illumination & Climax Swell

• Luminous Power Charge: Watch your gear charge from normal ambient lighting up to 100% full-bright celestial white overlay.
• Climax Swell: The item briefly swells in size right before the enchantment seals, releasing a burst of mystical Standard Galactic Alphabet (SGA) runes and swirling particles.

100% Client-Side Safe

EnchantMotion is purely visual and cosmetic.

• ✅ Vanilla Servers & Realms: Join any vanilla, paper, or modded multiplayer server without being kicked or flagged.
• ✅ No Server Installation Required: Works purely from your client; friends on the server don't need it installed to play with you.

Compatibility & Mod Loaders

• Shader Friendly: Optimized to work alongside popular shaderpacks (Iris, Oculus, Sodium).
• Modded Items: Fully compatible with custom weapons, tools, and armor added by other mods.
