L4gLegend's Solid Schematic
by l4glegende
Schematic previews in Litematica get opaque blocks in place of transparent ghosts, and this Fabric add-on handles that swap entirely on the player's own client.
What it does
Litematica normally shows a schematic as translucent ghost blocks before it is placed. This mod swaps those for opaque blocks, so a build can be inspected with the same solidity as finished construction. Schematic placements take on the look of real blocks, which suits anyone who wants to judge a layout before committing to it.
Each placement can be switched between Solid, Normal and Off modes through hotkeys, and the mode can also be toggled for every placement at once. Schematics are placed in the world in the usual Litematica way. The mod requires Fabric API, Litematica, MaLiLib and Sodium, and it is client-side only, so a server does not need it. Files exist for 1.21.1, 1.21.11, 26.2 and 26.3, with 1.0.13+mc26.3 as the latest Fabric build for 26.3. The code is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved.
Resource packs that work with Fabric can be used alongside the mod, and the preview stays the same whichever pack is active.

Who it’s for: Builders who use Litematica and want schematic previews that look like finished blocks rather than transparent outlines.
How it compares
SchematicPreview is a Fabric client-side mod with files for 1.21 – 26.3, released under All rights reserved and not open source, so it is a similar choice for a wider version range. Litematica Material Filter is a client-side Fabric mod for 1.21.11 – 26.3 under the MIT License, and it is open source; it filters materials rather than changing how placements look. Servermatica is open source under the MIT License and runs as client and server for 1.21.11 – 26.2, so it needs installing on servers as well.
