MateSignal (Fabric)
MateSignal is a client-side Fabric mod that enables cross-interaction with MateEngine.
MateEngine is a 3D Desktop Avatar Application that lets you display your favorite 3D or VTuber models on your desktop.
It includes features like dancing, window sitting, and other interactive behaviors.
This mod acts as a bridge between Minecraft and MateEngine.
What It Does
When specific in-game events occur, your desktop avatar reacts with cute messages, for example:
- Crafting
- Weather changes
- Nearby mobs
- Sleeping
- Day/Night cycle changes
- Low health or hunger
- Drowning
- Death
For example, when you go to sleep in Minecraft, your 3D mascot might say "Good night!" on your desktop.
Supported Minecraft Versions
This Fabric port supports all Minecraft versions from 1.14.4 through 26.2.

Usage Warning
Do not use this mod on public or competitive servers.
