UberGradient
A lightweight plugin, which allows to rename items,add item lore, change player chat and tab displaynames with usage of new MiniMessage formatting.
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
Small plugin with a single purpose - enable usage of MiniMessage formatting (styles, hex codes and gradients) in renaming items, adding item lore and formatting player displaynames in chat/tablist.
Commands:
- /ubername - renames a handheld item
- /uberlore - adds a single line of lore to handheld item (does not overwrite existing lore)
- /ubernick (can be used without on yourself) - sets displayname of targeted player.
- /uberreload - reloads config and messages
Player names are stored in names.yml
All plugin messages are translatable and stored in messages.yml
Permissions:
- ubercustomizer.ubername
- ubercustomizer.uberlore
- ubercustomizer.ubernick
- ubercustomizer.ubernick.others
- ubercustomizer.uberreload
