Rainbows
by Verph
Rainbows adds single and double rainbows that appear in the sky after rain showers, with settings for size, distance, transparency and the dimensions or biomes where they can show.
What it does
After rain stops, the mod can draw one or two rainbows across the sky. Their appearance can be adjusted in the configuration, including how large they are, how far away they sit and how transparent they look. The config also lets the server or the player choose which dimensions and biomes allow rainbows to form.
The mod is published for Forge and NeoForge, with files for 1.20.1, 1.21, 1.21.1, 1.21.2 and 1.21.3. Rainbows is client-side only, so servers run without it and players alone install it. It is released under the BSD 2-Clause License and is not open source.
Key features
Single and double rainbows
Rainbows appear after rain showers as either a single arc or a double arc, adding color to the sky.
Adjustable size and distance
The size and distance of each rainbow can be changed to suit the look a player wants.
Dimension and biome control
Settings decide which dimensions and biomes can show rainbows, so they can be limited to chosen places.
