📋 About This Mod
y8_29QPHudQ
As a feature of Open Animation Replacer - RaySense, if there is an obstacle in front of you with a vaultable height while moving, you will jump higher than usual and use a dedicated animation to vault over it.
The forward obstacle detection distance while moving is 230 units, 330 units while sprinting, and the jump bonus is 30. You can modify these values in the Open Animation Replacer - RaySense ini file.
It is fully compatible with all other parkour mods.
During installation, three options are provided :
Front Flip, Cat Pass, and Hybrid. Front Flip and Cat Pass are options that let you use only the specific jump animation you want, while Hybrid uses both Front Flip and Cat Pass depending on the distance to the obstacle.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 1,142 endorsements and 71k downloads
- Adds a simple but immersive vaulting animation to smooth out movement
- Recently updated (March 2026), so it's likely compatible with current game versions
⚠️ Cons
- Only covers obstacles in front—no side or high vaults, so it's limited in scope
- Animation mods can clash with other movement or animation overhauls, so check your load order
- No mention of compatibility with specific game versions, so you might need to test it
For players who want a bit more realism in movement without overhauling the whole system. If you're into immersive animation tweaks, this is a nice addition. Skip if you're looking for major gameplay changes or full parkour systems.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using other animation mods, place RaySense lower in your load order to avoid conflicts
- Test the vaulting animation in a safe area first to see if it feels right with your playstyle
- Check the mod page for any optional patches if you use popular animation frameworks
