Kairo's Color Filters

by DevKairo

With Kairo's Color Filters, players adjust vibrance, saturation, contrast, brightness and sharpening inside Minecraft itself, using NVIDIA-style color filters.

FabricClient-side onlyMIT License1.20 – 26.3

What it does

The filters are set from an in-game menu that opens through Mod Menu, with a key bound under Options and Controls for the same screen. Presets set all sliders at once, and each slider can then be fine-tuned, shows its value in a tooltip and resets on its own. A separate key flips the whole effect off instantly, which makes comparing against vanilla simple in the middle of a game.

The mod offers two modes: World Only keeps the HUD in its normal look, while Whole Screen applies the filter to everything, closest to the NVIDIA original. The filter runs on the graphics card in one pass, and the author describes its performance cost as zero. Settings are kept between sessions. The mod is client-side only, so servers need nothing, and it is released under the MIT License without being open source. Only Fabric files are published, for 1.20 – 26.3 across 13 release versions, and the latest is 1.3.3+26.3 for 26.3.

The author notes that the filters work alongside shader packs and resource packs, and that resource packs are built to pair with shader packs where possible. Shader packs are external software, so a shader pack is required for the features that depend on one.

Key features

  1. Vibrance and color presets

    Presets such as Vibrant, PvP, Crisp, Warm, Cool, Cinematic and Vanilla set the sliders in one click.

  2. Adjustable sliders

    Vibrance, saturation, contrast, brightness and sharpening each have a slider with a tooltip and a per-slider reset.

  3. Instant toggle key

    A bound key turns the whole filter off and back on, for side-by-side checks against the default look.

  4. World Only and Whole Screen modes

    World Only leaves the HUD untouched, while Whole Screen filters every pixel on screen.

Use cases

Streaming and recording

A bright, saturated look can be selected for a stream or video without editing footage afterward.

PvP and visibility

The PvP preset raises contrast and color strength so players and terrain are easier to separate in fights.

Who it’s for: Players who want a stronger or cleaner image without installing a separate program, and players who already use shader packs or resource packs and want an extra in-game adjustment on top.

Questions

Which loader does Kairo's Color Filters need?

Only Fabric files are published, so Fabric is the loader to use for the 1.20 – 26.3 range. Mod Menu is used to open the settings screen.

Does Kairo's Color Filters have to be installed on the server?

No. It is installed on the player's side alone, so servers need nothing.

Does the mod work with shader packs?

Yes. The author notes it works with shader packs and resource packs, though shader packs are external software and must be installed separately.
