Window to Reality

window-to-reality

Simple mod to modify the Minecraft window to allow transparency. Made for video creators and map makers for when a chromakey is not enough.

Technically Fabric API is optional, but there are still bugs so I wouldn't recommend removing it yet.

v0.1 note: use without Sodium and with improved transparency on.

Features

• Makes the Minecraft game window support transparency.
• Adds four utility blocks with different breakable/passthrough combinations:
  • cutout - breakable, solid
  • cutout_barrier - unbreakable, solid
  • cutout_window - breakable, passthrough
  • cutout_void - unbreakable, passthrough
• Clear Sky builtin texturepack:
  • Enables transparent sky rendering by modifying the sky shader and removing fog.

Version Support

• Active updates are primarily done for the latest version.
• Older versions may receive releases and updates if requested or contributed through community pull requests.

No additional content features are currently planned. NeoForge support not planned.

Compatibility

• No guarantee that mod custom screenshotting or rendering will work.
• Any texturepacks that modify core/terrain.fsh and post/transparency.fsh should apply the same fixes, otherwise transparency will break.
