ChaosAPI

ChaosLib is a high-performance animation and rendering library for Minecraft mods. It provides a familiar API for developers migrating from GeckoLib while offering advanced rendering optimizations and additional runtime features.

Features

• GPU-accelerated geo model animation
• Entity and block entity renderers
• Animation controllers and procedural animations
• Server-triggered animations synced to every client tracking the entity
• Static model baking for improved performance
• Multipart entities with bone-based hitboxes
• Emissive textures and custom render passes
• Animated and selectively rendered model bones
• Block break particles drawn from a block's own texture instead of the block atlas
• Pose caching and instanced rendering
• Molang expressions and query support
• Compatibility with Sodium, Iris, Oculus, and other rendering mods
• Minecraft 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 on Forge, NeoForge, and Fabric

ChaosLib is primarily intended as a developer dependency. Players only need to install it when another mod lists ChaosLib as a requirement.
