Zap's Enhanced Enchantment Glints changes the colors of enchantment glints on items, with no resource pack needed, on Fabric.

FabricClient or server, optionalMIT LicenseOpen source1.21.11 – 26.2

What it does

Players can set a solid custom color for enchantment glints, pick a color with a picker or type an RGB hex value, and choose a cycle mode: a smooth pass through the spectrum, or a smooth alternation between two custom colors. Item-specific overrides give individual items their own glint color, such as a green Netherite Sword or a red Bow, and custom name overrides color glints according to the name given to an item on an anvil.

Resource pack creators can supply default glint configurations with their packs by creating a config.zg JSON file, and the mod detects those configs when they are enabled. Server owners and datapack creators can give items pre-configured glints with the give command, or attach the zeeg:glint component to loot tables, recipe results and reward entries. Developers who build on the mod can read and change glint components on ItemStack instances through its API. Fabric API and Mod Menu are required, and the mod is open source under the MIT License, released for 1.21.11 – 26.2 with 5 release versions.

Key features

  1. Solid and cycling glint colors

    A single solid color can be set, or the glint can cycle smoothly through the spectrum or between two custom colors.

  2. Color picker and hex input

    Colors can be chosen with a picker or entered directly as an RGB hex value.

  3. Item-specific overrides

    Each item can receive its own glint color, separate from the default setting.

  4. Name-based glint colors

    Items renamed on an anvil can receive glint colors that follow their custom names.

Questions

Does Zap's Enhanced Enchantment Glints need Fabric API?

Yes. Fabric API is required, and Mod Menu is required as well. Both must be installed alongside the mod on Fabric.

Does the server need the mod installed?

No. Either side can run it, and neither needs it, so a server can run without the mod while players still use it.

Can glint colors be set without a resource pack?

Yes. Colors are set inside the mod, and resource packs are only needed if a pack creator wants to ship default configs as a config.zg file.

What the author says

A lightweight client-side Fabric mod that allows you to customize your enchantment glints dynamically without resource packs. Resource pack creators can bundle default configuration presets, item-specific overrides, or named overrides within their packs. ZEEG will automatically detect and load these configs if enabled.
