About this project

What does Sneaky Curses add?

Sneaky Curses makes cursed items feel uncertain again by hiding curse enchantments behind unreadable enchantment runes. Instead of instantly knowing an item is cursed, you'll have to decide whether it's worth the risk. 🌀

The mod adds a subtle visual hint without giving everything away: cursed items can display a distinctive red enchantment glint, making them feel suspicious while keeping their exact curses hidden. ✨ Curses can be revealed through gameplay over time or uncovered immediately by combining the item with an amethyst shard in an anvil.

It is a lightweight twist on vanilla enchantments that adds tension to loot, trading, and enchanted books without changing Minecraft's core gameplay. 🌟

  • 🌀 Hidden Curses: Curse enchantments are disguised as mysterious enchantment runes on item tooltips.
  • ✨ Cursed Glint: Cursed enchanted items can display a red enchantment glint for easier identification.
  • ⚒️ Reveal with Amethyst: Combine an item with an amethyst shard in an anvil to uncover its hidden curses.
  • 🎲 Natural Discovery: Wearing or using cursed equipment can gradually reveal its curses over time.
  • 📚 Enchanted Book Support: Hide curses on enchanted books to make loot, trades, and rewards less predictable.
  • 🎛️ Highly Configurable: Customize curse hiding, glint behavior, reveal mechanics, book handling, and creative mode visibility.

⏩ INSTALLATION REQUIRED ON CLIENT

⏩ REQUIRES PUZZLES LIB TO BE INSTALLED (FABRIC & NEOFORGE)

⏩ REQUIRES FABRIC API TO BE INSTALLED (FABRIC)

⏩ REQUIRES FORGE CONFIG API PORT TO BE INSTALLED (FABRIC)

If available for a mod, configuration is possible directly from in-game using the mod menu (requires Mod Menu by Prospector to be installed on Fabric).

For manual configuration using an external text editor all files are found at .minecraft/config, named as MOD_ID-client.toml, MOD_ID-common.toml, or MOD_ID-server.toml, depending on the type of config. Not all types might exist for a mod, if any at all.

🌟 Thanks to Zabi94 for creating Curse Silence and NoMoreGlowingPots, whose ideas inspired the creation of this mod.
