Smooth Sneaking Mod

by Launium · on Modrinth

Bring back smooth sneaking from the future and the past. Free Minecraft Java mod for 1.8.8, 1.8.9.

Which Minecraft do you have?

Every version of the game needs its own build. Pick yours, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game. This mod is built for Forge only.

Minecraft 1.12.2Newest
Minecraft 1.8.8–1.8.9

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.

A Minecraft 1.8.9/1.12.2 mod that implements smooth sneaking animation that was removed since 1.8 and added again in 1.14. This only adds visual effect and will not change your behavior at server, so it's not a cheat.

This is fully open source and you can find us on GitHub.

Issue reports are welcome.

Feel free to include in any modpack. :)
