Insecticide
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.
Insecticide
A mod that replaces CICADA to make it harmless
What is CICADA
CICADA is a mod coded by enjarai which most of its code is DIGITAL GARBAGE
It spams the console with messages like [cicada] Hello, anyone there?
It modifies player capes and elytra with ugly textures
And insecticide replaces it with harmless code
What does this mod do
This is a fork of CICADA which is a library mod containing general utilities and common abstractions used in many of enjarai's mods
Some of the features of Insecticide:
- Player rendering independent of a world context
- A custom cloak renderer
- A GSON based self-managed mod config template class
- An abstract mixin plugin to facilitate compatibility mixins
