Item Tints

by sydist

Item Tints recolors item icons so grass, leaves and water buckets change tint with the biome a player is standing in.

What it does

Items such as grass, leaves and water buckets take on the color of the biome around the player, so the same item can look different from one place to another. The effect is applied to the item icons, and the mod only runs on the client, so players install it alone and servers do not need it. Item Tints is built for Fabric and is available for 1.21.5 – 1.21.11, with 1.0.2 for 1.21.11 as the latest file. The code is not open source, and the license is All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Biome-based item colors

    Tinted items pick up the color of the biome where they are being viewed, matching the surrounding landscape.

  2. Grass, leaves and water

    Items such as grass, leaves and water buckets are among those whose tints change with the biome.

  3. Client-only icon change

    Only item icons are recolored on the player's screen, and the world itself is left alone.

Items (such as grass, leaves, water buckets, etc...) will now change tints according to what biome you are in! Once you turn this mod on, you won't be able to go back!
