SomeOrdinaryTweaks
by AdelinaM17n
SomeOrdinaryTweaks gives players a set of toggleable client-side changes to the game's interface, rendering and interaction, each switched on or off in its own settings.
What it does
Each tweak in SomeOrdinaryTweaks can be turned on or off, so a player keeps only the changes they want. The mod covers several parts of the screen and the game world, including the held items, the mount display and the sidebar. Its settings are reached through Cloth Config API, which the mod requires, and Mod Menu adds an optional entry point to those settings. Because the changes live entirely on the client, a player can use the mod on a server without the server owner installing anything.
The mod is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and its source code and issue tracker are public. Files cover 1.17.1 – 1.21.11 on Fabric, Forge and Quilt, with Forge builds ending at 1.19.2. Snapshot builds are published as well. An add-on, Icons for SomeOrdinaryTweaks, depends on this mod.
Key features
Hide shield in the main hand
The shield model is removed from the main-hand slot, so a held shield does not block the view of the held item.
Hide totem of undying in the offhand
A totem of undying held in the offhand slot is not drawn on the player model, which keeps the hand clear of the item.
Better horse HUD
A jump meter is shown for rideable mounts such as horses, donkeys and camels, and only when one is being ridden.
Disable scoreboard rendering
The sidebar scoreboard is hidden from the screen. The option is available in the 1.19.x builds of the mod.
