About this project

What does Armor Chroma add?

If using 1.3, please report errors with mod icon configuration (icons being shown as iron armor when the mod is on the list of supported mods), by sending a private message with the mod with the error and the armor materials(s) affected (if the type is a vanilla type, item IDs). You can find out a mod ID and armor materials by pressing F3 + H while ingame and hovering over the items.

Armor Chroma is a mod which rehauls the vanilla armor bar. I will possibly be adding some other features in later versions. It adds:

  • Different armor bar icons for different armor materials
  • Displays glint (shine) for enchanted armor
  • Displays different leather colors on the bar

This mod is based off of a suggestion by badhaloninja. It's on GitHub too.
