Flexible Arms

A Quilt mod (potentially supporting Fabric and NeoForge in the future, but the author hasn't implemented cross-platform setup yet) that allows adjusting character arm positions through item JSON models.

Does not require Quilt Standard Libraries.

The mod's concept was inspired by the wonderful Blåhaj mod.

Getting Started

It's quite simple! You just need to add a few lines to your existing JSON model files.

{
  // ...
  "arm_properties": {
    "held_mainhand": {
      "right_arm": {
        "pitch": -0.95,
        "yaw": -0.39,
        "roll": 0.0,
        "follow_sight": false
      },
      "left_arm": {
        "pitch": -0.90,
        "yaw": 0.39,
        "roll": 0.0,
        "follow_sight": false
      }
    },
    "held_offhand": {
      "right_arm": {
        "pitch": -0.95,
        "yaw": -0.39,
        "roll": 0.0,
        "follow_sight": false
      },
      "left_arm": {
        "pitch": -0.90,
        "yaw": 0.39,
        "roll": 0.0,
        "follow_sight": false
      }
    }
  }
}

Important: JSON doesn't support comments, so you need to remove them before using in an actual JSON file!

If you specify any fields (except "follow_sight"), the game will stop applying the standard model adjustment mechanics. It's recommended to configure both pitch and yaw for each arm simultaneously.
