Keyframe Crafter

Quickstart

Craft a Keyframe Crafter at a crafting table:

Hold the item and use it to open the editor. Choose Add keyframe, set a time from 0 to 1,200 ticks, and enter a non-empty pose note (for example, arm_rotation=30). Add at least one keyframe, then choose Create animation document to view the resulting document.

Overview

Keyframe Crafter is a simple in-game editor for assembling named animation documents from timed keyframes. Each keyframe contains a tick and text you provide as pose notes.

What It Adds

• Keyframe Crafter — a single-use-at-a-time tool that opens the editor.
• Animation editor — lets you add and review keyframes, rename a draft, and create and revisit animation documents.

How To Use

1. Use the item to open the editor.
2. Select Add keyframe. Choose a time between 0 and 1,200 ticks and enter pose notes; blank notes aren’t saved.
3. Add more keyframes as needed. They’re listed in tick order.
4. Optionally choose Rename draft to give the animation a name.
5. Choose View draft keyframes to check your entries, then Create animation document. You need at least one keyframe.
6. Choose View created documents to select and view a document again.

Crafting And Obtaining

Craft the item at a crafting table using the recipe in Quickstart. The recipe unlocks when you have paper.

Abilities And Mechanics

Creating a document presents its JSON text in the editor; the document contains the animation name and each keyframe’s tick and notes. The notes are free-form text, not pose controls. The tool creates and displays documents—it does not preview or play an animation on a character, creature, or build.

Progression And Strategy

Start with a few keyframes at distinct times and use clear, consistent notes so the sequence is easy to read. Review the draft before creating the document; entries are ordered by tick, not by when you added them.
