Kaleidoscope

by 1024_byteeeee

Kaleidoscope lets a client recolor block outlines, fog, sky, water and water fog, with each color set by a 16-bit RGB code.

FabricClient-side onlyGNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 onlyOpen source1.16.5 – 1.21.5

What it does

Each of the five colors can be switched on or off separately, so a player can change only the sky or only the water without touching the rest. The mod runs on the client alone, and only Fabric API is needed beside it. Files exist for Fabric across 15 release versions, 1.16.5 – 1.21.5, under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and the project is open source.

Key features

  1. Sky and fog colors

    Sky color and fog color can each be set with a 16-bit RGB code and turned on or off.

  2. Water and water fog colors

    Water color and water fog color are adjustable the same way, with their own enable switches.

  3. Block outline colors

    Block outline color can be changed, with RGB values and transparency set for the outline.

Questions

Does Kaleidoscope need Fabric API?

Yes. Fabric API is a required dependency and must be installed next to Kaleidoscope on Fabric.

Does the server need Kaleidoscope?

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