About this Mod

My port for neoforge 1.21.1 is in my new mod called Rubys Additions, if you don't want EVERYTHING that is added in Rubys Additions (a QOL mod basically) and only want the dyeable armor join our Discord and if enough people ask or really just one person I will do it but for now it stays where it is. I'm gonna be honest this 1.12.2 version works but it has its weaknesses (don't try to dye the armor you buy from villagers or get from chests LOL)

Have you ever wanted to dye any armor like leather for some like I did and totally not the reason why I made this mod. Well, now you can. You can dye any armor peice as many colors as you want and it won't look weird, also it is washable with a cauldron. The logo is an example of chain armor dyed with light blue and white dye, cool color I must say.

Oh also if someone wants this ported to a different version just join my Discord and yell at me, I will speed up if so. For now probably gonna port to the usual modded version like 1.16.5 (Forge), 1.20.1 (Forge & Neoforge), and 1.12.1 (Neoforge)

Have a suggestion for my mod or problem join my Discord, yes it is a ghost town LOL.

Frequently Asked Questions

Dyeable Armor server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong forge version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.12.2). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Server lagging with Dyeable Armor – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Dyeable Armor consumes the most tick time.
