Rampart Mod (26.3, 1.21.1) – Smoother Mob Animations and Faster Rendering

Rampart Mod brings the mob model and animation code from Citadel to newer versions and loaders. This library mod powers ported mods like Rats and adds no standalone content to the game on its own. It cuts out extra features like books and config screens to focus purely on rendering models and playing animations. Server and client performance also get a nice boost with smarter packet handling and smoother movement.

Features:

• Focused Codebase: Keeps only the core model and animation classes from Citadel while leaving out books and config menus.
• Better Server Performance: Sends animation packets only to players who can actually see the mob instead of everyone across all dimensions.
• Smoother Client Rendering: Draws model boxes without wasting memory on every vertex and ties keyframe animations to partial ticks to stop jittering.
• Zero Conflicts: Uses its own unique mod ID and package name so it runs alongside Citadel without crashing.
• Runs on both Fabric and NeoForge loaders.
• Powers all 28 mobs and their animations in the Rats port.
