Chromatic aberration mod
by Morm_Killen
Chromatic Aberration applies a colour-fringing post-processing effect to the player's camera view, shifting colours at the edges of the screen.
What it does
The effect is rendered over the player's camera perspective. Its intensity changes in real time with movement speed, so a faster pace produces a more obvious colour difference, and the effect eases off when the player slows down. The default setting follows speed, while a fixed intensity can be chosen in the configuration screen reached through Mod Menu after installing the mod.
The mod is a client-side only Fabric mod, so the server does not need it and players can join servers without installing anything. It is released under the MIT License and is open source, with its source code published. Files cover game versions 1.20.1 – 1.21.11, and the latest build is 1.0.0 for 1.21.11, in the beta channel.
Key features
Speed-based colour difference
The colour difference grows as the player moves faster and shrinks as movement slows.
Fixed intensity option
A fixed intensity can replace the speed-based default in the configuration screen opened through Mod Menu.
Camera post-processing
The distortion is applied as a post-processing pass over the whole camera view, not to individual blocks or entities.
