Resolve Cosmetics Not Appearing or Animating Correctly

Cosmetics Not Showing Up

1. Verify the cosmetic item is actually equipped in the cosmetics slot (not just in your inventory)

2. Check that you're viewing in third-person mode — some cosmetics may not display in first-person

3. Ensure the resource pack or companion mod that adds the cosmetics is enabled and loaded

4. Restart your game if you recently added new cosmetic packs

Animations Not Playing

Animated attachments require proper GeckoLib support. If animations aren't working:

1. Confirm the cosmetic mod is compatible with your GeckoLib version

2. Check that animation data is included in the cosmetic item's model files

3. Try equipping a different cosmetic to see if the issue is item-specific

General Troubleshooting

  • Verify all required mods (especially GeckoLib) are installed and up to date
  • Check mod compatibility — some cosmetics only work with specific mod versions
  • Look for error messages in your game log that mention cosmetics or attachments
  • Try removing and re-equipping the cosmetic

If problems persist, the cosmetic pack itself may be outdated or incompatible with your setup.
