Client Paintings

Client Paintings

Client Paintings is a simple, *fully client-side* mod to add new paintings via resource packs while keeping the vanilla paintings intact. It achieves this by looking at the UUID of the painting entity and applying a pseudo-random algorithm to it to determine which painting to render.

This mod uses a custom resource pack format to add new paintings,
you can use the Client Paintings Pack Generator on my website
to generate such a pack easily. Alternatively, see the resource pack format section below for technical instructions.

Features

• Add multiple new sets of paintings via resource packs
• Keep the vanilla paintings intact
• When a vanilla painting is shown, it will match the vanilla painting seen by players without the mod
• Custom paintings shown will match the custom paintings seen by other players with the mod
• Custom paintings are fully persistent between relogs and server restarts

Caveats

• Custom paintings will only match up between players if they both use the exact same painting sets
• Painting sets have to be added via a custom resource pack format, see below for details

I wrote a very nice and clean explanation of the resource pack format, but curseforge has some kind of aversion to my markdown, so I’ll just link to the github README here:
