Old Description

NOTE: This is the Fabric version of Blur, for the Forge version, look here.
You can configure the strength of the blur in the config file with the "radius" option.
Here is a demonstration of a few different radii:

Change the background colors and gradient!


Get lost in your GUIs!

Gorgeous rainy evening with you and your blur:

Works with shaders! Currently doesn't work with Optifine shaders due to an issue with Satin - consider using Canvas instead.

Explanation of Config Settings
- radius
- As explained above, this controls how "strong" the blur is. If you are experiencing performance problems, lower this.
- fadeTime
- This is the time it takes for the blur to "fade in", in milliseconds.
- gradientStart/EndColor
- The colors to use for the overlay on all GUI backgrounds. The value here is a hexadecimal color value, in the format ARGB (alpha first, then rgb). Because the background is a gradient, two colors can be specified. The default is black with a 45% alpha value (75000000).
- guiExclusions
A list of classes to be excluded from the blur shader. This is to be used for GUIs which do not necessarily cover the screen. It defaults to containing only one GUI, the chat.

Does Blur+ need to be installed on the Minecraft server?
No. Modrinth marks Blur+ as unsupported on the server side. Install it only in your local Minecraft mods folder. Your server can remain unchanged unless the mod page lists an additional dependency.
Which version and loader does Blur+ require?
Use a file for fabric, neoforge, quilt and your exact Minecraft version. Supported versions include 26.2, 26.1.2, 26.1.1. Files for different loaders are not interchangeable.
Blur+ is not working β what should I check?
First check the Minecraft version, loader version and required dependencies. Put the .jar file in your local .minecraft/mods folder and remove older duplicates. Because this mod is client-side, adding server RAM will not fix it.
