Collection of meaningful symbol items for Minecraft Java Edition and ways to display them.
Symbols'n'Signs is a Minecraft mod for NeoForge and Fabric that adds a collection of symbol items to the game.
These symbols are designed to be meaningful and can be used for labeling purposes, like making Create's Redstone Link frequencies more recognizable.
They are regular items that are cheaply craftable and transmutable and have uniform and recognizable textures.
View the latest documentation here (Note: contains changed and unreleased content).
You can visit the releases page, the Modrinth page, or the CurseForge page to download the latest version of Symbols'n'Signs.
Then simply place the downloaded JAR file into your Minecraft mods folder and launch the game with either NeoForge or Fabric.
For multiplayer, ensure the mod is installed on the server and all clients connecting to it. Automodpack can make this process easier.
Important
The Fabric version requires Cloth Config API to be installed as well.
Note
You will need either the NeoForge or Fabric mod loader installed to run the mod.
An easy way of doing this is by creating a modded game instance in a launcher like ATLauncher or MultiMC.
- This mod is still in early development, so expect major changes and breaking updates until the v1.0.0 release.
- Developer docs can be found in the
dev_docs.mdfile. They will contain more technical information. - DataGen JSONs (in
neoforge/src/generatedandfabric/src/generated) will be excluded from the repository until the v1.0.0 release. If you still want access to those files, you can either unzip the released JAR file, or set up the Java dev env and run the./gradlew :neoforge:runDataor./gradlew :fabric:runDatacommand. - If you want to contribute to the project, firstly thank you :), and secondly, please refer to the
