Custom Shield Scale
by cutebow
Custom Shield Scale lets a player change the size of the held shield on their own screen, with sliders for scale, height and side offsets.
What it does
The mod works on the client alone: only the player who installs it sees the change, and servers do not need to run it. Its sliders adjust the shield's scale, its height and its position to the left or right, so the shield can be set to suit the way a player holds it. Files are published for Fabric only, in 18 release versions 1.20.1 – 1.21.11, under All rights reserved and not open source.
Key features
Shield scale sliders
Sliders change the size of the shield, so it can be made larger or smaller than its default.
Height and side offsets
Separate settings move the shield up or down and shift it to the left or right.
Live preview
Changes can be checked while adjusting the sliders, so the shield can be set exactly as the player wants.
