Render Tweaks
Render Tweaks lets a client-side player turn off or recolor a few in-world effects: the lightning bolt, fishing lines and the world border.
What it does
Each of the three effects can be switched off, or given a custom color. The lightning bolt, the fishing line and the world border each have their own toggle and color setting, and the color options accept full customization, including chroma. The world border settings apply to all three of its stages, which are stationary, growing and shrinking, and each stage can be tuned on its own.
The mod is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, with its source code and issue tracker publicly linked. It has Fabric files and Ornithe files. Fabric builds cover 1.20.1 – 26.3 and the latest Fabric file is 2.0.3 for 26.3, while Ornithe builds are listed for 1.8.9. Installation requires Fabric API, Mod Menu, OneConfig and YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL).
Key features
Lightning bolt control
The lightning bolt can be disabled, and its color can be set to any value.
Fishing line control
Fishing lines can be hidden entirely, or drawn in a chosen color.
World border styling
The world border can be hidden, and its color set separately for each stage.
Chroma color support
Color options accept chroma, so the lightning, fishing line and border colors can cycle through hues.

Use cases
Clearer visuals
A player who finds the bolt or the border distracting can hide them while keeping the rest of the world.
Personal color scheme
Players who want the fishing line or border to match a texture pack or personal taste can recolor them.
Who it’s for: Players who want to change how a few in-world effects look on their own client. The mod has no server component, so servers do not need it.
