About this project

What does BBS FS add?

BBS FS

BBS FS (Faithful Succesor) is a fork (modified version) of an open-source, and discountinued, Minecraft mod called BBS mod, for creating animations within Minecraft. Just as BBS mod, it's made to work with Fabric 1.20.1, 1.20.4 and 1.21.1 (it can work on Forge 1.20.1 or NeoForge 1.21.1 with Sinytra Connector and Forgefied Fabric API).

The distinction between BBS FS, and other forks, is that it has a narrow focus of improving the process and experience of creating animation. BBS FS completely overhauled the film editor, making it more powerful, and also added new systems, expanding the animation capabilities even further!

Features

BBS FS offers following features:

  • Per-limb animations.
  • Redesign of the entire BBS mod
  • Layout system
  • UX tweaks that focus on creating animations.
  • Better gizmos
  • Inverse Kinematics system
  • Physics implementation
  • New texture editor
  • And more to come in the future!

What BBS FS doesn't offer is a swiss-army knife solution for content creation. The main focus is specifically enhancing the animation experience. While this could have a net positive effect for those who use it for 1st person RPs, or machinimas, it's created for animation first!
