Glintless Books (Fabric)

by Abbanon

Glintless Books removes the enchantment shimmer from Enchanted Book items, so they look like plain books in the inventory and world.

What it does

The mod uses Mixin to strip the glint effect from Enchanted Book items only. Other enchanted items keep their glint, so the change is limited to the books. It runs on the client alone, and the server does not need it. Builds cover 1.16 – 1.16.5 on Fabric, and the code is open source under the MIT License.

Key features

  1. Books without glint

    Enchanted Book items are drawn without the shimmering enchantment effect.

  2. Other items unchanged

    Tools, weapons and armor keep their enchantment glint, since only the book items are affected.

  3. Resource pack friendly

    The mod is noted as working well alongside resource packs.
