What it does

The mod changes how the GUI scale setting works in Minecraft 1.7.10. Its slider follows the intended scale behavior, and config options set the limits and step size the slider uses. A chat command offers a quicker route to changing the GUI scale during play without opening the options screens.

The mod is built with Forge Mixin, so it hooks into the game code directly rather than replacing large parts of it. It requires FalsePatternLib, which the author recommends for debugging mixins, and UniMixins, which supplies the mixin support. Both must be installed next to Right Proper GUI Scale for it to start.

Right Proper GUI Scale is a client-side only mod, so only the player's client needs it and servers run without it. It is released for Forge on Minecraft 1.7.10 under the MIT License, and the code is open source.
