ClearDespawn Reworked

by Thijzert

ClearDespawn Reworked flashes dropped items shortly before they despawn, so a player can still pick them up in time.

What it does

Dropped items start to flash as their despawn timer runs low, giving a player a visible cue to collect them before they disappear. The flashing speed and shadow opacity can be adjusted, and the feature can be tuned to suit the player's preferences. The mod is a Fabric rework of the ClearDespawn mod for Minecraft 1.21 – 1.21.11, and it requires Cloth Config API and Fabric API. Mod Menu is optional and provides an in-game settings screen. Only the client needs it, and it is released under the MIT License as open source.

Key features

  1. Flashing despawn warning

    Items flash when their despawn time is close, so the player knows to pick them up.

  2. Adjustable flashing

    The flashing speed and shadow opacity can be configured to match the player's taste.

  3. Fabric rework

    The mod reworks the original ClearDespawn mod for Fabric, with support for other loaders planned for later.

What the author says

When items are about to despawn, they flash to let you know that you might want to pick them up before it's too late. Everything is configurable, from the flashing speed to the shadow opacity. This is a rework of the ClearDespawn mod for Fabric 1.21.x. I might add support for more loaders later.
