If you use a tool to set an entity to be a passenger of a player, EG using bukkit to do so on a server, if you go into third person POV, the entity is floating a good ways above the character's head, for you. It looks normal for other people, but is floating above the player's head for themselves.

How is this modded? I by no way touched the client which is where the issue is. I'm showcasing a glitch in the CLIENT. NOT THE SERVER. the issue is in the CLIENT rendering
But its still a glitch with minecraft, the server, even if it is modded, if you put a mob on the players head and get rid of the mods, and go back to vanilla is still in effect, and im sure if it was possible to use commands to put a mob on youre head (which i believe it is) it would still show in vanilla,
This ticket is invalid as it relates to a modded or 3rd party client/server.
Any non-standard client/server build needs to be taken up with the appropriate team, not Mojang.
Any plugin issues need to be addressed to the plugin creator.
This site is for addressing issues related to the base unmodded Minecraft.
