Text Animator is an extension of the text renderer. You can use tags to add animation to some words almost anywhere. ## Demo (with Blabber and Heracles mod) ``` TextAnimator is a mod by Snownee. ``` ![demo](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/HBIG5nRf/images/e15e996bb6b5311bc0c0ae9e71d42a9d07ba9911.webp) ## Effects ![demo](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/HBIG5nRf/images/dcfca909c5d9c43d2817bf18f18d533d6e464083.webp) ### Basic usage * Add effect: `text` * Remove effect: `text` * Effects can be **stacked**. ### typewriter Can only be used at the beginning of the text. Rendering characters or words one by one, simulating typing. - Example: `Typewriter Effect` ### bounce Make characters bounce back vertically. - Parameters: - `a`: Amplitude (default `1.0`) - `f`: Frequency (default `1.0`) - `w`: Wave Size (default `1.0`) - Example: `BOING!` ### fade Periodically change opacity (breathing light). - Parameters: - `a`: Minimum Opacity (default `0.3`) - `f`: Frequency (default `1.0`) - `w`: Wave Size (default `0.0`) - Example: `Fading Text` ### glitch Create text slicing, and occasional flicker, generating additional layers in some cases. - Parameters: - `f`: Frequency (default `1.0`) - `j`: Character Jitter Chance (default `0.015`) - `b`: Character Blink Chance (default `0.003`) - `s`: Slicing/Shifting Chance (default `0.08`) - Example: `ERROR` ### grad (Gradient) Support linear gradient in RGB or HSV, can be flowing and segmented. - Parameters: - `from`: Start Color (default `5BCEFA`) - `to`: End Color (default `F5A9B8`) - `hue`: Whether to interpolate in HSV space (default `false`) - `f`: Flow Speed (`0` for static, default `0.0`) - `sp`: Span, affecting color distribution between characters (default `20.0`) - `uni`: Whether to be unidirectional without swinging (default `false` for back-and-forth) - Example: `Flowing Gradient Text` ### neon Draw multiple glowing outlines for characters. - Parameters: - `p`: Sampling Count, at least `4` (default `10`) - `r`: Radius (default `2`) - `a`: Opacity Multiplier (default `0.12`) - Example: `Neon Glow` ### pend (Pendulum/circular) Characters swing around the top-middle, can plus small circular trajectories. - Parameters: - `f`: Frequency (default `1.0`) - `a`: Maximum Angle in degrees (default `30.0`) - `r`: Circular Radius (default `0.0`) - Example: `Swinging Around` ### pulse Overall brightness fluctuates over time (does not affect shadow layer). - Parameters: - `base`: Minimum Brightness Multiplier (default `0.75`) - `a`: Amplitude (default `1.0`) - `f`: Frequency (default `1.0`) - `w`: Wave Size (default `0.0`) - Example: `Power Rising` ### rainb (Rainbow) Cycle colors over HSV. - Parameters: - `f`: Frequency (default `1.0`) - `w`: Wave Size (default `1.0`) - Example: `Colorful Text!` ### shadow Modify the offset and color of the text shadow. - Parameters: - `x`: Horizontal Offset Delta (default `0.0`) - `y`: Vertical Offset Delta (default `0.0`) - `c`: Color in hex (e.g. `FF0000` for red) (default `000000`) - `r`,`g`,`b`: Color (default `0.0`) - `a`: Opacity (default `1.0`) - Example: `No Shadow Shadowed Text` ### shake Randomly jitter in all directions, creating a sense of tension/energy. - Parameters: - `a`: Amplitude (default `1.0`) - `f`: Frequency (default `1.0`) - Example: `WARNING!` ### swing Characters spinning back and forth. - Parameters: - `a`: Amplitude (default `1.0`) - `f`: Frequency (default `1.0`) - `w`: Wave Size (default `0.0`) - Example: `Waving Text` ### turb (Turbulence) Random displacement perturbation based on noise. - Parameters: - `a`: Amplitude (default `1.0`) - `f`: Frequency (default `1.0`) - Example: `Windy Text` ### wave Characters undulating up and down like waves. - Parameters: - `a`: Amplitude (default `1.0`) - `f`: Frequency (default `1.0`) - `w`: Wave Size (default `1.0`) - Example: `Flowing Text` ### wiggle Each character wiggles along a fixed random direction. - Parameters: - `a`: Amplitude (default `1.0`) - `f`: Frequency (default `1.0`) - `w`: Wave Size (default `1.0`) - Example: `Wiggly Text!` ### Parameter Quick Reference - `a`: Amplitude/Opacity (meaning varies slightly across effects) - `f`: Speed/Frequency - `w`: Wave Size - `r`: Radius ### Notes - Multi-layer rendering: Effects like `glitch` and `neon` will generate additional layers or slices. - Rendering Order: Effects added later execute first, potentially altering inputs (e.g., coordinates/color/opacity) of preceding effects. - Performance: High `p` (neon sampling) and complex overlays increase overhead; use judiciously. ## Configuration Options like typewriter speed and mode can be found in Chat Settings. ## Known incompatible mods - Modern UI - Caxton [![Interested in supporting me and the development of mods?
