What it does

Dissy Block Overlay is a client-side Fabric mod that changes how the targeted block is highlighted. The vanilla outline is swapped for a more visible, customizable overlay, which stays visible through walls. Only the client needs it, and it is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved. Builds cover 1.21.11 – 26.2, with 0.6 as the latest file for 26.2 in the beta channel.

Key features

  1. Color and Nebula fills

    The overlay can use a plain color fill or an animated rainbow-style Nebula shader, and players switch between the modes in settings.

  2. Adjustable outline thickness

    A slider sets how thick the highlight outline is, so it can be made more or less prominent.

  3. Settings menu on Right Shift

    Pressing Right Shift opens the overlay settings menu, where colors, modes and thickness are changed.
