by jordanleppert

What it does

The mod adds a large sign display that shows one big character per face, covering capital letters, the digit one and about 40 other symbols. Signs can be colored for text and background separately, and an optional trim can be added. Dyeing both hands and setting both text and background colour happens in one action. Installation needs only Fabric, and the code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only. Players on Fabric can run it alone; both servers and clients need it, since the environment is client and server.

Key features

  1. Single large characters

    A sign face displays one oversized character from a set of capitals, digits and symbols.

  2. Separate colours

    Text and background of a sign can be coloured separately, and both can be set at once while dyeing.

  3. Iron stonecutter recipe

    Large signs are made from an iron block at the stonecutter, which yields 16 signs.
