About this Mod

This Mod lets you customize the color of your block-overlay.

To customize the color:

- Open the Mod's Configuration-File (.minecraft/config/customblockoverlay.yml)

- The color will be read in rgb(red,green,blue,alpha), every value being between 0 and 255.

- The format inside the config is red:green:blue:alpha as a string. by default this is 0.0:0.0:0.0:102.0, which should represent vanilla.

- Change this to your liking, and restart your client afterwards.

- NOTE: If you want the Overlay to be invisible, all you gotta do is change the alpha-value to 0 (transparent).

As of 1.0+build.2, I've implemented a Configuration-Screen into ModMenu, which you are most likely using already.
Also, the old config-file will be obsolete, the new config-file is now customblockoverlay.conf. To migrate your old color, simply use the GUI in ModMenu.

TODOS:

  • Add Configuration-Screen to make modifications on the fly Done as of `1.0+build.2
  • Allow Animated Colors? (Chroma, Rainbow, etc)
