ImageFrame Client

by LOOHP

With ImageFrame Client installed, a player's client shows full color HD images on item frames and maps that the server sends through the companion ImageFrame mod.

FabricQuiltClient-side onlyGNU General Public License v3.0 onlyOpen source1.21.4 – 26.3

What it does

The client side of ImageFrame lets a player see HD, full color images that a server displays on its item frames. Support depends on the server: the server must run ImageFrame 1.8.7.1 or above, and the server admin can disable client mod support, in which case the client has nothing to show. Players who are unsure whether a server supports it should ask the server admins.

Only images created after setup can use the native resolution display, while full color output also applies to older files. Full color display works with existing images, while native resolution display only applies to newly created ones. The mod also covers maps held in the hand and tooltips for filled maps, which work with vanilla maps, and tooltips for combined images made from pieces of enchanted paper.

The mod is client-side only, so only the player's client needs it, and it is not needed on the server. It is published for Fabric and Quilt, with files for 1.21.4 – 26.3 and 26.3 as the latest version, under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only. The code is open source, and Mod Menu is an optional dependency. MidnightLib is bundled inside the mod.

Key features

  1. HD full color images

    Shows high-definition, full color images that the server displays on item frames.

  2. Native resolution for new images

    Images created after the server update can be shown at native resolution.

  3. Held map display

    Maps held in the hand can show the image, so players do not need to place a frame first.

  4. Filled map tooltips

    Tooltips show the contents of filled maps, including vanilla maps.

  5. Combined image tooltips

    Tooltips show combined images made from pieces of enchanted paper.
