About this project

What does Blocky Outline add?

Blocky Outline

Blocky Outline is a highly polished, premium client-side Fabric mod for Minecraft that completely transforms how you interact with the world by adding highly customizable block-targeting outlines and solid face fills. Say goodbye to the boring, static default outline—with Blocky Outline, you can fully personalize your targeting visual style to match your aesthetic!


Features

  • Custom Block Outlines & Face Fills: Choose between rendering a beautiful custom outline around targeted blocks, a sleek translucent solid face fill, or both at the same time.
  • Dynamic HSL Rainbow Transitions: Elevate your game with gorgeous, smooth color transitions. Configure a dynamic rainbow effect that shifts through the HSL spectrum with adjustable speeds.
  • Vibrant & Precise Color Customization: Tweak red, green, blue, and alpha/opacity channels individually to create perfect custom colors for both the outline and the fill.
  • Sodium, Iris & Canvas Compatibility: Built with advanced modern rendering methods. The mod utilizes a double-faced vertex consumer structure and a micro-inflation factor (0.005D) to completely eliminate z-fighting, backface culling, or clipping issues commonly found when using modern performance shaders like Iris and Sodium.
  • Native Keybinding Integration: Seamlessly integrated into Minecraft’s native control settings. Simply press the M key (fully rebindable in the standard Controls options) to open the interactive customization menu screen in-game.
  • Frame-Synchronized Caching: Implements intelligent rendering pipeline optimization to prevent rendering bugs (such as outline elements getting stuck to the ground), ensuring buttery-smooth performance.
  • Client-Side Only: Purely client-side! You can join any multiplayer server, vanilla or modded, and enjoy your stunning custom block highlights.

Configuration & Customization

Once you are in-game, simply press M to open the customizer dashboard. From there, you can toggle:

  1. Outline Mode: Adjust the outline width, transparency (alpha), and exact color.
  2. Fill Mode: Enable or disable targeted block face highlighting, customize its transparency so it doesn't block your view, and configure independent custom colors or HSL rainbow transitions.

Installation & Versions

This mod is optimized for Minecraft 1.21+ (fully verified on 1.21.11) and requires:

  • Fabric Loader (>=0.19.2)
  • Fabric API

Simply drag the .jar file into your mods folder and you are ready to play!
