Headless Player
This mod does exactly one thing. And it does it without explanation.
It removes the player’s head.
- It does not add new mechanics.
- It does not balance gameplay.
- It does not improve performance.
- It does not ask questions.
It just… removes your head.
What it does:
- Renders the player headless
- No changes to hitboxes (unless the engine decides otherwise)
- No gameplay impact (aside from existential dread)
- Works in both first-person and third-person view
Perfect for:
- Meme mod packs
- Budget horror setups
- Servers that have long lost all sense
- Absolutely no reason at all
Compatibility:
- Client-side only (the server doesn’t need to know you’re headless)
- Should work with most character-rendering mods
- May look even worse with animation mods (consider this a feature)
