Compatability Fixes for some Cross-Mod Support
Glint Export Command for sharing glints!
NeoForge 1.21.1 Port!
Ice and Fire: Community Edition Fully Supported
Custom Glints lets you paint animated, custom-colored enchantment glints onto any item, armor piece, or living entity, with an optional glowing outline on top.
Hunt down Glint Trims and Glow Trims in loot chests and smith them onto your gear to make it actually yours.
Use Glint Tears to push those trims further: merge up to 8 layers, swap between every-color-at-once or cycling one at a time, or wipe a trim clean and start over. Want full control? The Glint Wand from the creative tab opens a complete editor with patterns, colors, speed, layers, glow toggle, and custom names. Shift-right-click any mob, player, or animal to glint them too. 55 built-in patterns, up to 8 colors per layer, up to 8 layers, and data-pack support.

Compatible and Tested with:
- Ice and Fire
- Epic Knights
- Elytra Slot
- Sophisticated Backpacks
- Silent Gear
- Spartan Weaponry
- Spartan Shields
- ... And more to come!
For developers: The render pipeline ships as a standalone API jar you can bundle into your own mod with jarJar, so your players get custom glints on your items and entities without installing anything extra. JarJar only inlcudes Oculus/First-Person Mod compatability. Check the GitHub repo or the Wiki for setup, examples, and the full API surface.
