DMC TierSigns
by sawiq_
DMC TierSigns is a Fabric client mod that marks signs carrying forbidden-sign tier text, with markers that stay visible through walls.
What it does
Signs whose text carries a tier mark are detected automatically. Each detected sign gets a HUD marker that stays visible even when the sign sits behind a wall, so a player can locate tiered signs without reading every sign in view. The mod is client-side only, so a player can install it alone and join any server without the server needing anything.
The markers are colored and given glow particles according to the tier that was detected, which lets a player tell tiers apart at a distance. Marker size, opacity and offsets can be adjusted, and an optional in-game configuration screen is available through Mod Menu. The mod requires Fabric API and Mod Menu, and its files are published only for Fabric, covering 1.21.6 – 1.21.8.
The latest Fabric build is 1.1, published for 1.21.8 on 2026-03-17, and the first release followed on 2026-02-28. The code is not open source; the author keeps all rights. Public links exist for the source code and an issue tracker.
Key features

Markers remain visible for tiered signs that are behind walls, so their positions can be found from anywhere nearby.
Tier-based visuals
Each marker's color and glow particles change with the detected tier, so tiers can be told apart at a glance.

Marker size, opacity and offsets can be changed, and an optional in-game configuration screen opens through Mod Menu.

Use cases
Locating tiered signs
A player moving through a dense area can see where tiered signs are placed, including ones hidden behind walls.
Who it’s for: Players who want forbidden-sign tiers highlighted on their own screen. Because the mod is client-side only, it is meant for individual players and does not change anything on a server.
