Description
Text Animator is an extension of the text renderer. You can use tags to add animation to some words almost anywhere.
Demo (with Blabber and Heracles mod)
<typewriter><wiggle>TextAnimator</wiggle> is a mod by <wave><rainb>Snownee</rainb></wave>.
Effects
Basic usage
- Add effect:
<effectName param1=value1 param2=value2 param3>text - Remove effect:
</effectName>text - Effects can be stacked.
typewriter
Can only be used at the beginning of the text. Rendering characters or words one by one, simulating typing.
- Example:
<typewriter>Typewriter Effect
bounce
Make characters bounce back vertically.
- Parameters:
a: Amplitude (default1.0)f: Frequency (default1.0)w: Wave Size (default1.0)
- Example:
<bounce a=4 f=1.8 w=0.2>BOING!
fade
Periodically change opacity (breathing light).
- Parameters:
a: Minimum Opacity (default0.3)f: Frequency (default1.0)w: Wave Size (default0.0)
- Example:
<fade a=0.2 f=1.5 w=0.1>Fading Text
glitch
Create text slicing, and occasional flicker, generating additional layers in some cases.
- Parameters:
f: Frequency (default1.0)j: Character Jitter Chance (default0.015)b: Character Blink Chance (default0.003)s: Slicing/Shifting Chance (default0.08)
- Example:
<glitch f=3 j=0.02 b=0.01 s=0.1>ERROR
grad (Gradient)
Support linear gradient in RGB or HSV, can be flowing and segmented.
- Parameters:
from: Start Color (default5BCEFA)to: End Color (defaultF5A9B8)hue: Whether to interpolate in HSV space (defaultfalse)f: Flow Speed (0for static, default0.0)sp: Span, affecting color distribution between characters (default20.0)uni: Whether to be unidirectional without swinging (defaultfalsefor back-and-forth)
- Example:
<grad from=#7FFFD4 to=#1E90FF hue uni>Flowing Gradient Text
neon
Draw multiple glowing outlines for characters.

- Example:
<pend f=1.0 a=30 r=2>Swinging Around
pulse
Overall brightness fluctuates over time (does not affect shadow layer).
- Parameters:
base: Minimum Brightness Multiplier (default0.75)a: Amplitude (default1.0)f: Frequency (default1.0)w: Wave Size (default0.0)
- Example:
<pulse base=0.6 a=0.4 f=1.5>Power Rising
rainb (Rainbow)
Cycle colors over HSV.
- Parameters:
f: Frequency (default1.0)w: Wave Size (default1.0)
- Example:
<rainb f=1 w=0.5>Colorful Text!
shadow
Modify the offset and color of the text shadow.
- Parameters:
x: Horizontal Offset Delta (default0.0)y: Vertical Offset Delta (default0.0)c: Color in hex (e.g.FF0000for red) (default000000)r,g,b: Color (default0.0)a: Opacity (default1.0)
- Example:
<shadow a=0>No Shadow</shadow> <shadow r=1 a=0.6>Shadowed Text
shake
Randomly jitter in all directions, creating a sense of tension/energy.
- Parameters:
a: Amplitude (default1.0)f: Frequency (default1.0)
- Example:
<shake a=2 f=3>WARNING!
swing
Characters spinning back and forth.
- Parameters:
a: Amplitude (default1.0)f: Frequency (default1.0)w: Wave Size (default0.0)
- Example:
<swing a=0.5 f=1.8>Waving Text
turb (Turbulence)

- Parameters:
a: Amplitude (default1.0)f: Frequency (default1.0)
- Example:
<turb a=2 f=1.5>Windy Text
wave
Characters undulating up and down like waves.
- Parameters:
a: Amplitude (default1.0)f: Frequency (default1.0)w: Wave Size (default1.0)
- Example:
<wave a=1 f=1.0 w=0.5>Flowing Text
wiggle
Each character wiggles along a fixed random direction.
- Parameters:
a: Amplitude (default1.0)f: Frequency (default1.0)w: Wave Size (default1.0)
- Example:
<wiggle a=1 f=2>Wiggly Text!
Parameter Quick Reference
a: Amplitude/Opacity (meaning varies slightly across effects)f: Speed/Frequencyw: Wave Sizer: Radius
Notes
- Multi-layer rendering: Effects like
glitchandneonwill generate additional layers or slices. - Rendering Order: Effects added later execute first, potentially altering inputs (e.g., coordinates/color/opacity) of preceding effects.
- Performance: High
p(neon sampling) and complex overlays increase overhead; use judiciously.
Configuration
Options like typewriter speed and mode can be found in Chat Settings.
