Checking Updated Passive Farm and Aquatic Mobs

Passive land animals and aquatic squids have several model and animation upgrades in the Better Mob Animations Pack. You can easily test and view these changes around a standard survival farm or nearby river.

Farm Animal Animations

Most farm animals now feature realistic blinking and updated movement cycles, though each species has a slightly different set of triggers:

• Cows and Mooshrooms: Watch them stand still to see their new idle and eye-blinking animations. When they wander, they use a new walking animation. Deal non-lethal damage to a Cow or Mooshroom to make it flee, triggering a custom running animation. Dealing lethal damage plays a new death animation.
• Pigs: Observe pigs in a pen to see their new walking, idle, and blinking animations. Like cows, they also have a custom death animation when killed for food.
• Chickens: Chickens feature updated walking, idle, and blinking animations, though they retain vanilla behavior when fleeing or dying.
• Sheep: Sheep use the new walking animation while grazing and display the custom death animation when killed.

Reworked Squid and Glow Squid Models

Unlike land animals that only change how their existing parts move, Squids and Glow Squids receive a brand new model alongside their animation updates.

1. Locate a deep river, ocean, or flooded underground cave.

2. Observe a Squid or Glow Squid while it pauses in the water to see its new idle animation on the updated model.

3. Watch as it propels itself through the water to see the new swimming animation in action.
