1 required mod needs a matching file

About this project

What does Armor 3D add?

This mod enables rendering of the player and entity equipped armor/elytra/harness in 3D and is compatible with most standard armor mods, dyes, and trims with support for 16x resource packs.

This project is still a beta stage so expect few visual bugs. Although extensive precautions were taken to prevent frame rate drops, performance may decrease in areas with many armored entities. This is due to the dynamic armor model which ensures compatibility across all armors, but comes at a slight performance cost even when using optimization mods.
