This pack uses core shaders to make some parts of the GUI animated and rainbow! All in vanilla Minecraft. I have been tinkering with this for a while, and I think it's pretty magical. This makes the background for the player doll rainbow, the hotbar selection, rainbow, and the background to the hotbar is a plasma effect, while still translucent like vanilla. The dark brown backgrounds in the loom and stonecutter GUIs are also rainbow, although less saturated.

Even though it's animated with colours, it still has detail and depth by changing the brightness and saturation of the pixels, even if not the hue.

Since this replaces pixels of certain colours with the animation, you can make this compatible with many other GUI packs if you edit over their textures with the right colours.

For the rainbow stripes animation: red must be 145 and alpha 192. This ends up being a solid opaque texture. Green value makes it more or less saturated (as seen in the less saturated loom and stonecutter) while the blue affects brightness (There's a lot of variation in the hotbar hilight, for example.)

For the plasma, red must be 145, green 75, and alpha 189. It will always end up overridden to 187 which is what the hotbar usually is. If blue is 175 then it will be a lighter version and if it is 105 then it will be a darker version.

Enjoy! I hope you give this a try if you're interested. The textures are based on the default (light mode) textures.



If you use this as a base for a pack with different rainbow elements, please credit me on the pmc/other site page and on credits.txt. =]


Important Notices/Disclaimers:

This pack changes the position_tex shaders and is incompatible with other packs that may change it as well (ie rotating 3D sun and moon)

Iris and OptiFine mess with the core shaders, so I cannot guarantee compatibility. Sorry!

Probably works with Sodium but if it doesn't then we can't change that.

This pack changes a few GUI textures. You'll need to combine parts of the texture for it to not clash with other GUI packs.

Core shaders were added in 1.17, and I've only tested for 1.18.1 which means that it 100% won't work on older versions such as 1.16 or 1.8 so don't ask about those, but you can try 1.17 and it may or may not work.

Hi! I haven't come back to this in a while, and I'm not in a position to actually test it, but it probably has the potential to work on higher versions (pack.mcmeta doesn't matter here). =]

HOWEVER


Since I made it for 1.18.1, it definitely won't work without a patcher for 1.18.2+. Shock Micro made a separate patcher pack which you should use since it should work on most packs that break between 1.18.1 and 1.8.2, especially useful here until it's updated. My pack probably works if you use that.

Her pack is here: https://github.com/ShockMicro/FogFix/releases/tag/v1.0 and that 100% works too.

All your resource packs will unload if you don't use the patcher, so make sure you don't load my pack without hers. Hope this helps! =]

Thanks a bunch! =D

Yes, there's a ton of really cool random stuff that people have found, although a lot was mid 2021. The possibilities are exciting, especially if performance improves and we're given more time to keep using this stuff.
