First-person Model Mod FAQ

It's active by default once installed, so you should already see your body in first person. Press F6 to toggle between the vanilla view and the body-view camera if it isn't showing.

F6 switches between the vanilla first-person view and the enhanced body-view camera. You can rebind this in the standard Minecraft controls menu under the mod's keybind category.

Check that you haven't toggled back to vanilla view with F6, and make sure the Vanilla Hands option isn't forcing vanilla mode for your current view angle or held item. If it still fails, confirm the mod is actually loaded for your profile.

Vanilla Hands automatically switches between the vanilla first-person view and the mod's body view depending on your look angle or the item you're holding. It's meant to keep certain items (like maps or bows) looking correct while still showing your body the rest of the time.

Open the mod's config screen from the Mods list and adjust the Vanilla Hands options there. You can choose whether it triggers based on view angle, held item, or both, so it only kicks in when you want it.

Not Enough Animations is a dependency that provides the extra animations optimized for the body-view perspective. Without it the mod still works, but you'll miss the arm and body animations that make the view feel natural.

Yes, it's fully client-side and purely visual, so it works on any server without the server needing the mod installed. Other players won't see any difference in your character.

It only changes your own view and doesn't send anything to the server, so it's generally considered safe. Still, check your server's rules, since some servers ban any client-side mods regardless of function.

It's a lightweight visual mod, but rendering your full body and animations costs a bit more than vanilla's floating hands. If you notice FPS drops, try disabling Not Enough Animations or lowering your render distance.

This usually means Not Enough Animations isn't installed or is the wrong version for your mod loader. Install the matching version and make sure both mods are enabled in your profile.
