About this project

What does ShieldScaler add?

🛡️ ShieldScaler

ShieldScaler is a mod that lets you change your shield model in-game using sliders to create the shield look that you prefer most! The mod lets you shrink or enlarge your shield, rotate it in all different directions, and lower or higher it in your first-person view. This applies to both your held and blocked shield model!

This is an alternative to using texture pack based shield modelling, meaning you can take inspiration from models you like and tweak the look to your desire!

You can configure your left and right hand view seperately from each other, meaning you can make your shield model look constistent in both hands, or make them look completely different.

💾 Presets

Save, load and share your shield models to make different looks and revisit them at any time! Cycle your chosen presets with a press of a keybind, making it easier to switch between shield looks.

The mod comes with 3 inbuilt presets; a Vanilla, Lowered, and Rotated look, that are popular amongst the community.

🔥 Fire Tweaks

Change your first person fire height to make it easier to see when you've been set on fire. Use keybinds or commands at any time to lower or higher the height.

Hide the fire texture completely when you or others have the fire resistance effect applied to make it easier to see. This is separate for your screen, yourself in third person, and other players.

✨ Totem Tweaks

Change the size and height of the totem pop animation that plays when you use a totem of undying to make it easier to see when you are in danger.

🛠️ Live Editing

With ShieldScaler you are able to view changes live when editing your shield model, fire height and totem pop animation within the config menu!

💻 Commands

Use commands to open your configuration screen, load your presets, and change many different features from your chat!
