YugiTotem
by yugiyx
YugiTotem replaces the Totem of Undying texture in-game, with an image taken from a file the player picks, and it is a Fabric client-side mod.
What it does
The mod lets a player swap the Totem of Undying texture without editing resource packs by hand. An image can be uploaded from the file explorer, and the mod crops it, removes the background and converts it to fit the totem texture. Custom totem presets can be created, saved, switched and deleted, with no limit on how many are kept, and changed settings apply immediately without restarting Minecraft.
Only the client needs the mod, so servers run without it and players install it alone. It is published for Fabric across six release versions, 1.21.11 – 26.3, and the code is not open source; the mod is released under All rights reserved. The author describes it as a lightweight client mod built for compatibility with other Fabric mods, and it is updated with new gameplay, visual and quality-of-life features over time. Installing it changes nothing on the server side.
Key features
In-game texture replacement
The Totem of Undying texture is replaced directly in the game, so resource packs need no manual editing.
Image upload and processing
Images are picked from the file explorer and cropped, cleaned and background-removed to fit the totem texture.
Unlimited custom presets
Totem presets can be created, saved, switched and deleted, with no fixed number of them stored.
Instant setting changes
Changes to settings take effect at once, so Minecraft does not have to be restarted to see a new totem.
Smooth animations and tools
Quality-of-life adjustments and customizable tools sit alongside the totem features, with smooth animations included.

Use cases
Who it’s for: The mod suits players on Fabric who want a custom Totem of Undying look without building a resource pack. It is a client-side choice, so it fits single-player games and players joining servers that do not need it installed.
How it compares
Totem Plus is a Fabric, client-side only mod under All rights reserved, published for 1.21 – 26.2. Totem of Infinity Extended is a Fabric mod for both client and server, released under the MIT License, covering 1.21.11 – 26.1.2. Simple Auto Totem is a client-side only Fabric mod under the MIT License for 1.21.8 – 26.2, so its scope differs from custom texture replacement.
