Eating Animation

Eating Animation — Horizon mod

A Horizon port of Eating Animation: food, milk and potions in your hand show bitten frames while you eat or drink.

Native mod Author: sillysoufi ⬇ 28,264 No ratings yet v0.2.0 MC 26.3 MIT

In vanilla, the apple in your hand stays whole right up until it vanishes. Eating Animation changes that: while you eat, the item visibly gets smaller bite by bite. This is sillysoufi's native Horizon port of Theoness1's Eating Animation. It's purely cosmetic, which is the point: a small first-person detail that makes the game feel a bit more alive. Good for players who like subtle visual mods and for creators recording close-up gameplay.

Features

  • Food in your hand shows bitten frames as you eat.
  • Potions and milk animate while you drink.
  • No resource pack needed: the frames ship inside the mod.

Modders get a bonus: the repository has a script that rebuilds the bundled content from a frame pack, for example a newer version of the original Eating Animation textures. As a player, you can ignore that entirely.

Compatibility and install

Native mod, version 0.2.0, for Minecraft 26.3, signed by its author. Install it on your instance's Mods page in the launcher, then press Build in the "Native build of …" row. The first native build downloads Rust and takes 20–30 minutes and a few GB of disk; later builds take a few minutes.

Limitations

It changes how the held item looks and nothing else. The project is new: 0.2.0 fixed a bug from its tracker, and the changelog also links a pull request to Horizon itself. As with any native mod, it isn't sandboxed, so only build it if you trust the author.

FAQ

Do I need a resource pack for the animation?

No. Since 0.2.0 the frames are built in: the textures and models are compiled into the native build as a content mod and load with the game's resources.

Who made it?

sillysoufi ported it to Horizon. The original Eating Animation is by Theoness1. The port is MIT licensed.

Does it animate drinking too?

Yes, potions and milk get bitten frames as well as food.

How do I install Eating Animation?

From the Horizon launcher: Mods page → find "Eating Animation" → Install. The launcher checks the SHA-256 and the author's signature for you. A native mod is then compiled with the Build button — the first build takes 20–30 minutes. The full steps are in "How to install" above.

Which Minecraft version does Eating Animation support?

The latest version, 0.2.0, targets Minecraft 26.3 on Horizon.

Can I download Eating Animation from this site?

Yes. Its MIT license allows redistribution, so we host the file, and its SHA-256 matches the official registry.
