About this Mod
Inspect Animations
Inspect Animations adds new animations for items, inspired by the inspect feature from counterstrike.

Animations
| Animation | |
|---|---|
| Turn | Classic counterstrike inspect animation. |
| Toss | Toss the item up in the air and catch it. |
| Flourish | Twirl the item back and forth like flourishing a sword. |
| Flip | Flip the item around in your hand. |
Keybinds
Press [R] to play the selected animation.
Hold [SHIFT] and press [R] to cycle through the available animations.
Multiplayer
Use the gamerule inspect_radius to change the distance from which other players will receive animation packets.
Use the gamerule send_inspections to enable/disable sending animations to players. When setting from false to true, players already in the server will need to re-join to apply changes.
Configuration
Use Mod Menu to configure the mod:
- Animations can be removed from the cycling option
- Animation duration can be changed
- Some animations can have their number of loops changed
There are a few experimental options:
- Select specific animations for items and item tags
- Select a specific animation for all blocks
- Maximum Delta: Try changing this value if the animation does not play smoothly or skips during lag spikes
