Hostile mobs dig out of the ground or poof into existence when they spawn.
**Works with:**
Zombies, Husks, Drowned, Skeletons, Strays, Bogged, Wither Skeletons, Spiders, Cave Spiders, Creepers, Endermen, Slimes, Magma Cubes, Zombified Piglins, Striders and Giants.
This data pack/mod is designed to be as unintrusive as possible. Hidden entities including their worn armor and tools will only be invisible and silent.
Spawn Animations is completely server-side!
[-> For available settings and customization, take a look at the wiki <-](https://github.com/Tschipcraft/spawnanimations/wiki)
More sophisticated animations with Animated Java are planned for v2.0!
## Installation
Install either as:
* **Data Pack [DP]** ➜ Place `.zip` in your world's `datapacks` folder
* **Mod [Mod]** ➜ Drop into your `mods` folder and optionally install [MidnightLib](https://modrinth.com/project/codAaoxh) for a global config file and UI
For hiding entities with emissive layers in 1.20.4 or below, and generally smoother animations, you may additionally install [Pehkui](https://modrinth.com/project/t5W7Jfwy).
To manage settings, reset, or uninstall the pack, use the command `/trigger tschipcraft.menu` or `/function #tschipcraft:menu`.
