Loot Beams: Relooted!
by AmoAster
Loot Beams: Relooted! draws colored light beams above dropped items so they can be spotted from a distance on Forge.
What it does
The mod adds beams to dropped items by default, and each beam takes its color from the item's name. A whitelist and a blacklist decide which items get beams, color overrides can be set per item, and NBT tags such as lootbeams.color can pick a specific color.
Beams carry nametags that appear when a player looks at an item or crouches, so the item's name can be read without picking it up. Textures and sounds can be replaced through a resource pack, including the trail, particle, beam and glow textures. Config presets are linked from the project page.
The code is open source under the MIT License and is published for Forge only, with files for 1.20.1 and 1.20.2. The latest Forge file, 1.20.1 for 1.20.2, was released on 2023-10-26. Its major changes to customizability arrived on 17/09/23.
