HexColorText

# Hex Text

HexText extends Minecraft 1.7.10’s font renderer with real RGB colors, gradients, outlines, shadows, animated text effects, styled item names, styled lore, GUI text support, and RPG-style utility systems.

It started as a simple hex color renderer, but has grown into a visual/RPG toolkit for heavily modded Minecraft 1.7.10 setups.

## Installation
