About this Mod

Riptide Shield Fix

Fixes equipped shields covering up two thirds of your screen whenever you use a riptide trident (MC-127970).

This works for all items, not just shields, but shields are the most common thing to keep in your offhand, and are the most egregious example of the bug.

This mod is also built with compatibility in mind, and should work with modded trident variants.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Riptide Shield Fix need to be installed on the Minecraft server?

No. Modrinth marks Riptide Shield Fix 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 Riptide Shield Fix require?

Use a file for fabric, quilt and your exact Minecraft version. Supported versions include 26.2, 26.1.2, 26.1.1. Files for different loaders are not interchangeable.

Riptide Shield Fix is not working – 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.
