About this project
What does Cycle Paintings add?
Cycle Paintings is a minimalistic mod which allows players to cycle through placed paintings by right-clicking them with another painting in their right hand. Also works with modded paintings. You can also blacklist certain motives from other mods or the vanilla game from appearing during the cycle via the config.
The mod is compatible with Fast Paintings.
You no longer have to remove and place and remove and place and remove and place a painting! :)
All available config options:
ignorePaintingsInCycleResourceLocation default "infernalexp,"
Split by a , (comma). The paintings to ignore during the cycle. You can either input an entire mod's prefix (only the part before the : (colon)) or the entire line found via 'showRegisteredPaintingsDebug'.
showRegisteredPaintingsDebug default false
When enabled, prints all paintings registered to the console. With this you can find which to add to the 'ignorePaintingsInCycleResourceLocationPrefix' config.
Here's an example of how it works:
You can also crouch to reverse the cycle order and go back a motive.

You may freely use this mod in any modpack, as long as the download remains hosted within the CurseForge or Modrinth ecosystem.
Serilum.com contains an overview and more information on all mods available.
