The settings screen which you can access through Mod Menu, if you're unable to see the preview or don't have the mod it's okay!! We support commands too which is covered in the section below :) <3
The Advanced tab of the HitColor X settings screen, showing toggles for items, cape, and armor trims, plus the trim pattern/material preview selector set to Silence and Gold on a Diamond armor set.

Features

Color picker: RGB sliders, a hex input, or one of 27 built-in presets.

Per-part toggles: body, armor, armor trims, held items, and capes each flash independently. Turn off body and only tint armor, or any other combination.

Opacity slider: 0 to 100%, from no tint at all to fully solid.

Settings screen (needs Mod Menu): live preview using your actual skin while in a world, armor set switcher (Leather through Netherite, with glint) to preview trims and colors, and a hurt-preview toggle so you can compare with the effect on and off. Changes apply instantly.

Custom Hit Color × Armor Tint × Hex Support × 27 Presets × Opacity Control × Live Preview
