This plugin is now compatible from 1.8.x to 1.19.x (but not with WorldGuard 1.19+ to play for some regions)

• Very customizable steps
• Its own file system to save cinematics (.anm)
• Intuitive and easy to use
• Comes with an API
• and more...

SCREENSHOTS



API

APath - An APath is basically representing a list of steps.

To get all loaded animotion names, use:

Code (Text):

AnimotionApi.getAnimotionNames()

This function returns the total duration of animotion in ticks.

When an animotion is played, the player's gamemode is automatically set to spectator. Their gamemode will automatically be reverted once animotion finished. Their location too.
