Levviata's Enhanced Subtitles
by Levviata
Levviata's Enhanced Subtitles lets a player change how subtitles look and where they appear on screen, from inside the game's own menus.
What it does
Subtitles can be moved, resized and given a different background color and font color, all through the in-game configuration screen. Presets cover common screen positions, so a player can pick a corner or edge instead of setting coordinates by hand. The subtitles themselves can also be hidden entirely through the mod's settings, for players who want sound without captions.
The configuration screen opens by pressing P in the game, which places it inside the Controls menu. Changes apply while playing, so a player can adjust the text size or position and see the result on the next sound event. The mod works in single-player and on a multiplayer client, but it changes nothing on a server. Files are published for Forge only, for 1.12.2 and 1.16.5, with 2.4.0 for 1.12.2 as the latest file, and the mod is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is open source.
Key features
Subtitle movement
The subtitle block can be moved anywhere on the screen, instead of staying at the default corner.
Position presets
Preset positions give quick placement options for the subtitle block, with a custom position available beside them.
Scale and colors
The text scale and the background and font colors of the subtitles can each be set in the configuration screen.
Hide subtitles
Subtitles can be switched off through the mod's settings without changing the game's own options.
