What does Extended Beacon Range add?
Extended Beacon Range
Extended Beacon Range is a lightweight quality-of-life mod that makes Beacons stronger and easier to visualize.

Install Notes
IMPORTANT
In multiplayer, the mod only needs to be installed on the server for the Beacon x3 range to work for every player. Players only need the mod on their client if they want to use the Beacon perimeter overlay with H.
| Setup | What works |
|---|---|
| Singleplayer | Range x3 and perimeter overlay both work normally. |
| Server only | Range x3 works for every player, even if they do not install the mod. |
| Server + client | Range x3 works, and players with the mod installed can use H to view Beacon perimeters. |
Range Comparison
The effect radius of every Beacon pyramid level is multiplied by x3.
| Pyramid Level | 🟥 Vanilla | 🟪 Extended Beacon Range | 📐 Diameter |

IMPORTANT
Most v1.0 files were archived because they had a multiplayer-only issue where the Beacon x3 range was not applied correctly.Singleplayer was not affected. The v1.0 file for Minecraft 26.1.2 remains available because that issue was fixed there. If you still need v1.x, use the links below. Other archived v1.0 files are intentionally not listed to avoid accidental downloads.
