What the add-ons do

Fresh Animations on its own covers most mobs. The add-ons extend it with details that are not part of the base pack. These are optional — you do not need them to use Fresh Animations, but they add extra visual fidelity if you want it.

The most downloaded extension is "Fresh Animations Extensions," which adds an assortment of extra details to mobs. It has over 1.2 million downloads and was last updated in April 2026 .

Types of add-ons available

  • Fresh Animations Extensions — extra details for mobs. 1.2M downloads .
  • Horse retexture — recreates the old horse look with Fresh Animations. 278.5K downloads .
  • Player eye animations — EMF resource pack for player eye movement. 772.4K downloads .
  • Mod compatibility patches — for specific mods like Jaden's Nether Expansion, Variants & Ventures, and others .

Installation

  1. Install Fresh Animations (base pack) first. The add-ons will not work without it.
  2. Download the add-on ZIP from the creator's CurseForge profile.
  3. Place both ZIPs in .minecraft/resourcepacks.
  4. In-game: enable Fresh Animations first, then enable the add-on above it in the list.
Load order matters: Resource packs load from bottom to top. The add-on must be above Fresh Animations in the selected list, or its changes will be overwritten by the base pack.
