Client Tweaks

Source-provided project description. FreeMinecraftMods keeps creator credit and adds separate compatibility and decision guidance below.

Project overview

Good news everyone, I've found the secrets to fixing your Minecraft experience. I've bundled them in this mod. This mod adds a bunch of optional tweaks to improve the Quality of Life during gameplay. Tweaks can be individually enabled or disabled and configured. Many of the tweaks are disabled by default, so make sure to enable the features you want for the most bestest experience possible. This mod requires Balm , which must be installed alongside the mod. To access the config screen on Fabric, install a supported config screen mod . UI Master Volume Slider Adds the Master Volume slider back to the main options screen. Saved you a click. Music Volume Slider Adds the Music slider back to the main options screen too, because sometimes the music is the thing you wanted to change after all. Prioritize Experience Bar Prioritizes the experience bar info over the locator bar. Can be toggled with a keybind if you care about both. Rendering Hide Shield Unless Holding Weapon Prevents shields from rendering in your offhand unless you are holding a weapon. Hide Shield Unless Blocking Prevents shields from rendering in your offhand unless you are actively blocking. Hide Offhand Item Prevents the item in your offhand from rendering, in case you hate seeing what you're holding. This can be toggled by a keybind too, in case you only hate seeing what you're holding sometimes. Hide Empty Main Hand Hides your empty main hand in first person. Who needs an unused hand anyways? Hide Hands Hides all of your hands regardless of whether they hold an item. This can be toggled by a keybind. Hide Own Effect Particles Hides your own potion effect particles in first person. Other players will still see them normally. Hide Own Effect Particles (3rd Person) Hides your own potion effect particles in third person as well. Other players will still see them normally. Mobility Auto Climb Ladder I often make really long ladders down to my mine, and it's a pain having to hold down a key the whole time while climbing back up. With this tweak on, you will continue to climb upwards as long as you look upwards while on a ladder. That means you can type in chat and do other things without instantly falling back down and losing all of your progress on the long journey. Disable Step Assist There's people who hate step assist, but sometimes those step-assist granting items add some other cool perks that we want. So this option lets you disable the step-assist part only. With optional keybind to toggle. Reactive Sprint Key Makes sprinting stop when the sprint key is released or sprinting is toggled off. Combine with a fan blowing at you for full immersion. Mining Do Not Use Last Durability (Mending) Prevents tools with Mending from using their last point of durability. You're safe now, Pickaxe of Doom. Prevent Accidental Mining Prevents accidental mining of certain fragile blocks like budding amethysts unless you are holding shift. Building Pane Building Support Increases the hitbox of iron fences and glass panes when you're holding a matching block, making it easier to place them against each other. Chain Building Support Increases the hitbox of chains when you're holding a chain block, making it easier to place them against each other. Interactions Disable Log Stripping Disables log stripping outright. Useful when you build using wood and have an axe-like tool in your hand a lot to prevent accidental strippings. Can be toggled with a keybind. Log Stripping Requires Shift Only allows log stripping while holding shift, so accidental right-clicks do not remodel your walls. Disable Paving with Block in Offhand Prevents shovels from creating paths when you have a block in your offhand. No Offhand Use With Food Prevents items from being used from your offhand while you have food in your main hand. No Offhand Fireworks With Elytra Unless Airborne Prevents fireworks from being launched from your offhand if you are wearing an Elytra, unless you're already flying. Berry Placement Requires Shift Prevents sweet berries from being placed unless you are holding shift. Torches Do Not Use Last Torch This option is useful when using a mod adding dynamic lights. The last torch in your offhand will not be placeable, so you always have a light to carry around with you. No Offhand Torch At All Completely disables placing torches from your offhand. Useful if you only carry a torch in your offhand for things like dynamic lighting. No Offhand Torch With Block Refuses to place a torch if you're holding a block in your main hand. Because there's no way you intended to place a torch in that case. Something was just standing in the way of the spot you wanted to place that block in but the torch was fitting since it's smaller. Fixed it for ya. No Offhand Torch With Food Prevents you from placing a torch from your offhand when you have food in your main hand. Begone, ceremonial post-lunch torch. No Offhand Torch With Empty Hand You know that feeling when you're tired, try to open the chest but misclicked the block next to it? And of course you still had a torch in your offhand. And of course it placed it. And now you have to break it again. Ugh. This option only allows torches

FreeMinecraftMods decision guide

This mod is most relevant to players looking for Utility & QoL on NeoForge, Fabric, Forge, undefined. Treat those labels as discovery hints, then verify the exact file and dependency list on the official project page.

The source record was updated on Sep 16, 2026, which is a recent freshness signal. A recent date does not guarantee support for every loader or Minecraft version, so still inspect the current file list.

What to verify before choosing a file

• Confirm that the file is published by the credited creator on the linked official source.
• Match the Minecraft version exactly instead of relying only on a broad category label.
• Read dependencies, incompatibilities, and changelog notes before updating an existing instance.
• Match the loader or server platform and its required version. Forge and NeoForge are not interchangeable.
• Back up worlds and configuration files before testing the project in a long-term save or public server.
