Updated plugin description to 'Effortlessly craft complex animations for Minecraft: Java Edition'. Replaced all textarea s in Blueprint settings, Variant config, and Node configs with a custom CodeJar that provides a better editing experience. Improved plugin incompatibility warnings. Fixed a few minor Text Display text wrapping issues.

(No more 22.5 degree limitation!) Added full support for SNBT JSON Text components. You can now use the modern SNBT format in any version, and Animated Java will automatically convert it to the correct format for your target version on export. Added full support for 1.21.5 unicode escape sequences in SNBT JSON Text components.

Rather than changing textures, Fresh Animations instead adds fluid and realistic movements to many of Minecraft’s creatures and animals. It truly makes the game feel alive and immersive in a way that the default game simply can’t compete with. It could be argued that this is how Minecraft should have been all along.

Here’s a tutorial for PC users on installing Fresh Animations in Minecraft Java Edition. If you’re using Minecraft Bedrock Edition and the pack is available for Bedrock/MCPE, you can simply click on the downloaded file to install it. To use all the cool features in this pack, download and install OptiFine.
