About this Mod

This mod adds a font based on the Sheikah alphabet found in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, as well as 40 banner patterns based on the 40 characters from it.

The font can be used by any JSON text (it has id sheikahfont:sheikah), such as with the /tellraw or /title commands on in custom item names. If you have Bookshelf, you can also use the /bookshelf font command for easy uses.

The font supports:

All 26 latin letters A to Z (upper and lowercase are displayed the same),
All 10 arabic numerals 0 to 9,
Dash (-), dot (.), exclamation (!) and question mark (?).

To get the banner patterns, craft the Banner Pattern item and use it in a Loom, as you would with any other. It is crafted with one each of Paper, Cobblestone, Lapis Lazuli, and Redstone.

This was inspired by Darkhax's font mods, such as Unown Font.

Sheikah Font officially supports forge, neoforge for Minecraft 1.20.1. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Sheikah Font – how to optimize performance?

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