Glitch Visuals
by MegaDark414
Glitch Visuals is a client-side menu mod for Fabric and Forge that groups visual settings, presets and animations into one screen.
What it does
Players open the Glitch Visuals menu to reach a short set of visual options, from sounds and kill effects to inventory animations and chat message pop-ups. A Favorites section can open automatically whenever the menu launches, so specific settings stay one click away. Configs can be saved as multiple presets and switched instantly, which avoids changing each option by hand between sessions.
Only the client needs the mod, so a server does not have to install it and players can join without it. Iris Shaders is an optional dependency and is not required to run the mod. Files are published for Fabric and Forge across 1.20.1 – 1.21.11, with Fabric 1.0.2 for 1.21.11 and Forge 1.0.2 for 1.20.6 as the latest builds. The code is under All rights reserved and is not open source.
