IP Hider
by kikfrem
IP Hider masks server addresses on the multiplayer server edit screen, so a player can stream or share a screen without showing where they connect.
What it does
When the add or edit server screen opens, IP Hider hides the server address in that screen. The field is covered with a blank display and an equals-sign pattern, so the address stays out of sight while the player still edits the entry. The mod also includes a few small changes to the layout of that screen.
Several hiding modes are available for the address field, including a Telegram-style spoiler that blurs the text and a pixel noise effect. The mod is for players who record video, stream or take screenshots of the multiplayer menu and want server addresses kept private. Only the client needs it, and it changes nothing on the server side.
The mod runs on Fabric for 26.2, with 22 release versions published and snapshot builds available as well. It is released under the MIT License, and the code is not open source. Fabric API is not needed for this mod.
Key features
Hidden server address field
The address of a server is hidden while the add or edit server screen is open, so it cannot be read from a recording.
Telegram-style spoiler
An optional mode blurs the address text in the style of a spoiler, which can be revealed by interaction.
Blank and equals-sign masks
Alternative display modes replace the address with a blank field or a row of equals signs.
Pixel noise mode
A pixel noise effect can be chosen to cover the address, with no text left readable on the screen.
Small layout improvements
A few adjustments to the server edit screen make the hidden address easier to work with while editing an entry.
