Youtube Essentials
by skowmovies02
Youtube Essentials adds YouTube-themed blocks and items for creators, with a green screen block, subscribe blocks and a viewer boost item.
What it does
Creators get a set of playful tools built around the YouTube theme. Among them are a green screen block, a Subscribe Block that stands in for the familiar button, and a Viewer Boost item. Players can place and use these in their builds, and the subscribe blocks add more options beyond the first one.
The mod runs on client and server, so every player on a server that uses it needs it installed. It is available for Fabric and NeoForge, with files covering the 1.21.8 – 1.21.11 range. The license is All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.
