ThreatenIntel
ThreatenIntel is a NeoForge optimization mod that fixes a rendering problem Intel GPUs show with ProtoManly's Weather.
What it does
The mod targets a specific rendering issue: on Intel integrated graphics, the Overcast Present option of ProtoManly's Weather can leave a permanent blanket glitch across the screen. ThreatenIntel is built to keep Intel GPUs, including iGPUs, rendering the weather correctly with PMWeather 0.15 and later. Its changelog reports the permanent blanket bug resolved in version 0.16a, and the author ran it on a laptop processor with integrated UHD graphics.
ProtoManly's Weather is a required dependency, so it must be installed alongside ThreatenIntel. The mod is NeoForge only, for Minecraft 1.21.1, and runs on the client alone, so servers and other players do not need it. The code is not open source, and the mod is released under All rights reserved. An addon for ThreatenIntel with ProtoManly's Weather is listed as a companion. The mod was first published on 2025-09-30 and last updated on 2025-10-17, when the latest file, 0.15-P2, appeared.
