About this project

What does TextDisplay add?

TextMod

(named TextDisplay on curseforge due to naming rules and stuff...)

How it works:
Right after entering minecraft, there will be text on the upper left side of the screen, it says "Default Text" After installation, you can change this text though. After launching the game with text mod for the first time, it will create its config files in the .minecraft default directory, sadly if you dont use the default minecraft directory (Which most people do use, so if you didnt change it you shouldnt worry about it) it will propably not work. I will maybe fix this in the future

How to customize the text:

Tutorial:

  1. Make Sure you are using the newest version of TextMod
  2. Type /textmod set name hereTypeWhantYouWantItToBeSetTo
  3. Restart your game
  4. Now the text will be changed!

How to customize the color:

MAKE SURE YOU ARE USING THE NEWEST VERSION!!!

If you want the default color cycle:

  1. Type /textmod set color cycle
  2. Restart your game

If you want custom colors:

  1. Type /textmod set color custom HEXCODE
  2. Instead of HEXCODE type the hexcode of the color you want, to get the hexcode use a color picker such as this:
    https://htmlcolorcodes.com/color-picker/
    Copy the Hex code above the color picker, the hexcode starts with #
    Example of setting it to pink: /textmod set color custom #EE0DD3
  3. Restart your game and the changes should apply!

Features:

  • Custom Commands
  • Customize what the text says
  • Custom Color support
  • Color Cycling mode

Custom Commands:

  1. /textmod set - changes the text
  2. /textmod help - displays all commands
  3. /textmod info - displays info about your textmod release
  4. /textmod reset - resets the text to DefaulText
