Tinted Beacons

by bishan-batel

Tinted Beacons lets a beacon beam be made invisible when the glass above it is tinted, a change aimed at decoration builds.

FabricClient-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.18.1 – 1.19.4

What it does

Tinted Beacons changes how a beacon beam is drawn: placing tinted glass above a beacon can hide the beam so it no longer shows in the sky. The change is handled on the client, so only the player's game needs the mod. It requires Fabric API and is published for Fabric as open source under the MIT License, with builds for 1.18.1, 1.19.2 and 1.19.4.

Key features

  1. Invisible beacon beams

    Tinted glass placed in the beacon column turns the beam invisible while the beacon keeps working.

  2. Dye-based tinting

    Stained or tinted glass dyes the beam's visibility, so builders can choose which beacons stand out.

  3. Client-side drawing

    The beam change happens on the player's side, so joining a server does not require the mod.

What the author says

Allows for tinted glass to "dye" beacon beams invisible. This is a client side mod, so you can use this on any server as you please:)
