Using IJM's Tweaks Mod
A Client-Side Quality-of-Life Toolkit
IJM's Tweaks Mod is a client-side mod, so it changes how the game looks and feels for you without altering core mechanics or affecting other players. Its features are meant to smooth out small annoyances rather than overhaul gameplay.
Several tweaks focus on visual polish and clarity. The Dark Loading Overlay swaps the bright white fade for a black screen while loading. Reduced Block-Break Particles cut down visual clutter when mining, and Overlay Adjustments let you customize the pumpkin and fire overlays for better visibility. In Creative Mode, an XP bar is added for consistency and utility.
Other features improve usability. Auto-Jump on Stairs automatically hops up stairs, which is handy for builders and explorers. A built-in Zoom Function works through a keybinding, so no extra mod is needed. After taking a screenshot, a Screenshot Folder Shortcut gives instant access to your screenshots. You can also view hitboxes of invisible entities.
Most options are configurable, letting you enable only the tweaks you want.
