📖 About:

Straw Statues adds one simple item, that when placed down looks just like a player model. And that's no coincidence! You can give the statue a name to make look like any Minecraft player. Then there are plenty of options, for equipping the statue with gear, making a custom pose, configuring a few options, and generally for just posing the statue as you wish. Time to breath some more life into your builds!

📚 Contents:

Placing a straw statue will immediately open the confugration menu. When shift + placing or using dispenser the menu will not open, and the statue will autmatically have a random pose applied. Switch to different screens using the tabs to the left. Quickly switch between those tabs by pressing the Tab key.

The Rotations Screen allows you to freely move around head, cape, both arms and both legs. Rotation values are restricted to a certain range to prevent weird rotations. To unlock this restriction, simply click the lock icon to move sliders on the full range of 360 degrees. When moving the sliders with your cursor isn't precise enough, try clicking a slider first, then use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move it around with greater accuracy.

The screen also offers buttons for reseting the current pose, for creating a random pose, and also two buttons for copying the current pose and pasting it elsewhere. You can only copy one pose at a time.

The next screen is the Poses Screen. Here you are offered a selection of bult-in poses to choose from. After selecting a pose you can also go back to the rotations screen to customize that pose. Built-in poses are the same as armor stand poses found on Bedrock Edition, so you might already be familir with them.

The Style Screen gives access to some basic options, such as turning the statue into a child. You can also set a name, which will define the skin used by a straw statue. The Sealed option is only available to creative mode players.

The Model Parts Screen allows control over the different model layers of the current player skin. The options will only have an effect when the skin contains such elements. This screen is pretty much the same as the Skin Customization screen in Minecraft.

The Position Screen allows you to place the straw statue with great precision, you can also change the rotation. To be able to better see how you're rotating/moving the statue around, click the magnifying glass button to hide most screen elements and give you a clear view. When moving the statue around a lot it probably is a good idea to disable its gravity on the style screen.

Finally the Equipment Screen gives you access to the armor stands equipment slots via a menu. This screen only shows up when Armor Statues is installed both client- and server-side.

💡 FAQ:

Q: How do I configure this mod?
A: Mods can have three different kinds of configs depending on the kind of settings they provide: Client, Common, and Server.

Client and Common configs are found in /.minecraft/config/, named as <modId>-client.toml and <modId>-common.toml, respectively.

Server configs though are applied per world, therefore you'll find those in /.minecraft/saves/<world>/serverconfig/<modId>-server.toml for local singeplayer worlds, and in /<world>/serverconfig/<modId>-server.toml for you Minecraft server. Changes made to a server config only apply to that one world. Setting default values in server configs for all newly created worlds is possible by copying the modified server config to /.minecraft/defaultconfigs/.

In a local singleplayer world you can quickly find config files by running the /config showfile <modid> command and by choosing CLIENT, COMMON or SERVER. Then click the file name (ending with .toml) that appears in chat to open the file in a text editor. After saving the file, the config will automatically reload in-game after a couple of seconds, so no game restart required.

On some mod loaders editing configs is also supported in-game via the Mods menu option. On some Minecraft versions you can also install my Config Menus for Forge mod for editing configs directly in-game.
