Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

Mod loader

Minecraft version

⬇ Download for 1.21.8–26.1.1 · Data pack⬇ Download for 1.21.8–26.1.1 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.21.8–26.1.1 · Forge⬇ Download for 1.21.8–26.1.1 · NeoForge⬇ Download for 1.21.8–26.1.1 · Quilt
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

CraftStands Banner features the word Craftstands, with 2 armor stands on either side holding it. They are on top of a stretched out crafting table.

CraftStands is a unique approach to Customized Armor Stands. CraftStands is a Datapack that adds various poses and unique Armor Stand through Crafting recipes. This is to expand the possibilities with Armor Stands, without creating too detailed Armor Stands that would not fit as close to Vanilla Minecraft. Where it doesn't increase complexity, it makes up for it with Animated Poses and Actions that feel like they are made with redstone to make Animatronics.

This is a Resource Pack, Mod, and Ultimately a Datapack! The resource pack adds the visuals for the items of Armor Stands. To use with other resource packs that use the Items Files, please use a mod to allow both.

Please Note, this uses Dialogs which Mojang Classifies as "Expiermental" When loading into Single Player Worlds you will be met with a warning.

*Please Note this datapack can expose Vanished Admins on Servers with the Look and Mimic Command.

Survival First

This datapack is a Survival First Experience! This is balanced around Survival Play where recipes, commands, and things cost specific currency. Some commands specify what they cost in chat upon attempts. These are ignored for Creative Users & there is a custom /trigger cs_ArmorStandBox that gives all base Variants!

Features:

Selecting

Selecting can either be done with the /trigger cs_Select Command and right clicking an Armor Stand or an Item Frame, or it can be done automatically by a command. The order selection happens is it selects an Armor Stand you are looking at, up to 16 blocks away (stops at solid blocks), if it doesn't detect one then it goes to the nearest within ~5 blocks. Auto Selected Entities get unselected immediately after the command is ran. Manually selected Entities get unselected when you are 25 blocks away from it.

Full Command List:

All the commands require "/trigger cs_" to be before the command.

Full Command List Animated Poses: Look Sets the Armor Stand to look at the nearest player Mimic Sets the Armor Stand to mimic the nearest player's head movement LeftMine Sets the left arm to mine if it isn't already posing RightMine Sets the left arm to mine if it isn't already posing LeftWave Sets the left arm to wave if it isn't already posing RightWave Sets the right arm to wave if it isn't already posing ReverseSpin Sets either Armor Stands or Item Frames to Spin Counter-Clockwise Spin Sets either Armor Stands or Item Frames to Spin Clockwise StopAnimation Stops all Animated Poses exactly where they were for some neat, but small customization of static Armor Stands

Selection Commands:

Lock Locks an Armor Stand/Item Frame with a Diamond so it cannot be edited or deleted. All commands disallow editing locked Armor Stands or Item Frames UnLock Unlocks your locked armor stand or Item Frame, only ones you locked can be unlocked by you.
