How to Use Connected Textures Safely on Multiplayer Servers

Because this mod functions strictly as a client-side visual enhancement, you can use it freely on public and private multiplayer servers without special permissions.

Client-Side Mechanics on Servers

The mod only alters how block faces are rendered on your personal screen:

1. Join any vanilla or standard multiplayer server as you normally would.

2. You do not need the server to install the mod or run any custom plugins.

3. The mod does not change block coordinates, inventory states, hitboxes, or server-side metadata, meaning server anti-cheat systems will not flag your block placements.

Viewing Shared Builds

When playing with others, keep in mind how visuals translate between players:

1. Place blocks like glass or sandstone in any pattern on the server.

2. On your screen, the structures will appear cleanly connected with grid lines removed.

3. Players on the server who do not have the mod installed will still see standard vanilla borders on the same blocks.

4. You can safely build alongside friends without worrying about desynchronization or visual errors on their end.
