SomeOrdinaryTweaks is a mod that adds few GUI/HUD/Rendering Tweaks and gives ability to turn off selective toast groups (tutorial/advancement/recipe unlock popups), also includes few misc features. every feature will be listed down below
Every feature can be turned on or off

Features/Tweaks

  • Hide Shield
    • With this option enabled, It stops rendering the shield if the player is holding the shield item in the off hand and not holding a weapon in the main hand.
  • Hide Totem of Undying
    • With this option enabled, It stops rendering the Totem of undying if the player is holding it in the off hand.
  • Better Horse HUD
    • With this option enabled, the the health of any entity the player is riding on will display alongside the player hunger bar, Instead of replacing it. The player XP bar will render instead of the jump meter unless the player attempts to jump.
  • Disable Scoreboard Rendering (1.19.x-1.6.0+ versions only)
    • With this option enabled, it stops rendering the side scoreboard.
  • Toast Controls.
    • Allows to Individually disable Advancement/Tutorial/Recipe Unlock Toasts/Popups (Error/Issue/System Toasts will still display as they contain important things that the user should not ignore).
  • Skip Server Resourcepack Downloads
    • This option allows you to accept a server resource pack without downloading it/enabling it. Specially useful if you have a slow internet or a old PC and want to play on a server that mandates a really high resolution resource pack.
  • Disable Portals closing GUIs
    • This option gives you the ability to open the Inventories(like chests or your inventory) and the chat while inside of a nether portal. hopefully no more getting trapped on a nether portal in some random sever with a claiming plugin.
  • Death coords in the Death Screen
    • Shows the coordinates of where you died in the death screen, also gives a button to copy the cords to the clipboard. This is a another standalone mod of mine that has been merged to this mod. I will continue to update the standalone mod that features this feature (Where-is-my-Stuff).
  • Send Death Coords In Chat
    • If enabled, the death cords will be sent to the chat (only visible to the you) after you respawn.
  • Smart Edible Crop Placement
    • With this option enabled, It prevents placing edible crop-blocks like sweet berries/carrots/potatoes. the player is still able to place down the crop by holding shift.
  • FullBright (1.19+ versions only)
    • This options turns gamma to a higher value allowing for clearer perception of dark areas. (Do note some servers might consider this as an unfair advantage)
  • Off Hand Item Slot Location (1.19.x-1.5.0+ versions only)
    • LEFT -> The off hand item slot will always be rendered on the left side of the hotbar
    • Right -> The off hand item slot will always be rendered on the right side of the hotbar
    • VANILA -> Default Vanila Configuration
  • No double slab placement
    • With this option enabled, It prevents the player from placing a slab-block in a place where it could form into a double slab block

Some newer features are not yet back-ported to older versions (>1.19), That will be done in some time in the future. No ETA
