Disabling for a dimension

Server owners or modpack makers can disable Picture Mode in a dimension by adding its
dimension type to the picturemode:disabled tag. The button will be disabled once
the player is in a dimension of the disabled type

Credits

Thanks to the Better than Adventure! team for the original Photo Mode, which is a huge inspiration for this mod.

Thanks to Bestsoft100 for letting me use their shader code for the filters.

Frequently Asked Questions

Picture Mode server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong fabric 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 (26.1.2). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Picture Mode compatible with fabric and forge and neoforge and quilt?

Picture Mode officially supports fabric, forge, neoforge, quilt for Minecraft 26.1.2, 26.1.1, 26.1. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Picture Mode – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Picture Mode consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
