About this Mod
This mod requires HammerLib.
This mod is intended for Creative Mode use but can be also used in Survival Mode if chosen.
To be able to use the mod in survival, you must enable it in the /config/onlinedisplays/main.properties.
Online Displays adds one block: Display.
It allows setting up an image, positioning, rotating, and scaling it to your exact need so that everyone can see it.
Additionally, its lighting may be disabled, essentially rendering it emissive.
The Display block supports a variety of image formats, such as JPG/JPEG, PNG, WebP, and GIF.
GIFs are partially supported, but you might see weird artifacts on GIFs with specific encoding.
