How to Troubleshoot Missing Player Animations

If you load into a world and your character still uses the stiff default movements, the pack is either being overridden by another resource pack, blocked by server settings, or you are testing an action the pack does not cover.

Check Your Load Order and Server Rules

1. Open Settings and view your Active resource packs.

2. If you use multiple packs, move this animation pack to the very top of the list so its player model files take priority.

3. If animations are missing on a multiplayer world, check if the host has checked Require players to accept resource packs to join. When a host enforces their own server pack, it disables your Global Resources unless the host installs the animation pack directly onto the world.

Verify Which Actions Are Supported

This pack is lightweight and strictly targets player animations—it does not alter mobs, blocks, or add extra limb bends like knees and elbows. Furthermore, it only replaces five specific player states:

• Walking
• Falling
• Sitting
• Blocking with a Shield
• Sleeping

If you are testing other actions—such as swimming, sprinting, sneaking, or swinging a tool—seeing the default vanilla movement is normal behavior.
