What else does Emote Phase Sync 1.0.1 (Forge 1.20.1) need?
Emote Phase Sync 1.0.1 (Forge 1.20.1). Change the file and its required mods may change too.
Install Emotecraft (Forge), playerAnimator first. We found matching files for this game-version and loader setup. 1 comes through another mod in the chain.
1 extra mod was pulled in by another dependency. Indented rows show who needs each one. We only count dependency files that match this setup. A file for another loader does not fill the gap.

About this project
What does Emote Phase Sync add?
Emote Phase Sync
Client-side addon for Emotecraft that automatically syncs the phase of looping emotes between nearby players.
What it does
If you and another player are both playing the same looping emote nearby, the mod automatically adjusts the start point of your animation to match the cycle of whoever is already dancing — instead of starting from zero and ending up out of phase, you snap into the same beat.
You don't need to press anything extra beyond the normal emote (keybind, wheel, or Emotecraft menu). Syncing happens automatically the moment you activate the emote.
- No handshake, no invite, no extra command.
- If no one nearby is playing the same emote, it just starts normally from the beginning.
- Works with any looping emote, including custom ones (as long as both players have the emote file installed, same as standard Emotecraft behavior).
Requirements
- Minecraft 1.21.1
- NeoForge
- Emotecraft 2.4.x
Install on both clients (you and whoever you're dancing with) — since it's client-side only, no server-side installation is needed beyond Emotecraft already running there (native or via proxy).
