Troubleshoot Missing or Broken Wing Animations

Common Animation Issues

If your dragon wings appear static, invisible, or don't animate properly, several factors could be responsible.

Troubleshooting Steps

1. Confirm mod compatibility — Ensure OptiFine or Entity Model Features (EMF) is installed and enabled. The resource pack cannot animate without one of these.

2. Check resource pack load order — If you have multiple resource packs, the dragon elytra pack should load *after* any conflicting packs. Reorder in your resource pack menu if needed.

3. Verify elytra is equipped — Wings only appear when the elytra is in your chest slot. Confirm it's there and not in your inventory.

4. Reload textures and models — Press F3 + T to reload all resources. This often fixes animation glitches.

5. Check game version compatibility — Confirm your Minecraft version matches the pack's supported versions. Mismatches can break animations.

6. Test in a fresh world — Create a new world or load a different save to rule out world-specific issues.

7. Review mod conflicts — Disable other mods temporarily to identify conflicts with animation systems.
