About this project

What does Default Dark Mode: Patcher add?

ARCHIVED (APRIL 4, 2026)

This Modrinth project on Modrinth has been temporarily archived because the original resource pack, https://modrinth.com/resourcepack/default-dark-mode, is now up-to-date as of this writing, making the Default Dark Mode: Patcher unnecessary. However, if the resource pack becomes inactive or doesn't receive updates, I will eventually return to this mod if needed!

About

This Client-Side Minecraft Mod is designed to patch and modify the Default Dark Mode resource pack, aiming to be up to par with Newer Minecraft versions & Default Dark Mode: Expansion Add-On.

Credits

Aric3435 - The creator of the Default Dark Mode: Patcher mod.

NebuIr - The creator of the Default Dark Mode resource pack.

Vi_Tul - Updated the Shader Files (rendertype_text.fsh & rendertype_text_intensity.fsh) for 25w19a+ (1.21.6-1.21.8) - Removed in "Default Dark Mode: Patcher v1.2.0+".

Update: DDM 2026.2.0

NebuIr published an update to the resource pack for 1.21.6-1.21.11 https://modrinth.com/resourcepack/default-dark-mode/version/2026.2.0-1.21.11 but that doesn't make the patcher useless yet, the patcher allows it to support Minecraft 26.1 Snapshots! But when I do start the update v1.3.3 of the mod, it will target the latest release of the resource pack & remove the duplicate textures it adds!

How to use

  1. Install Default Dark Mode: Patcher
  2. Start the game—the patcher will automatically uncompress the zip file, apply the files I mentioned above, and recompress it.
  3. Once patched, uninstall Default Dark Mode: Patcher—it’s mostly just a one-time-use tool designed to modify the Resource Pack.
