  • Keybind Toggle - Press B to show/hide all barrier blocks in your render distance
  • Optimized Rendering - Smoother transition using more selective rendering updates

Usage

Press B to toggle barrier visibility on/off
(Change keybind in Options → Controls → Visbarrier)

Customization

Default uses red translucent blocks with outline for better performance, but can be changed with resource packs

Create resource packs where you can change texture and models:

Also, works with Optifine's connected textures

Visbarrier

Toggle barrier block visibility in Minecraft Forge 1.8 - 1.12 with better performance

Uses better rendering methods:

  • Seamless rendering
  • Connected Textures

Preview

Note: Did not really test for 1.9 - 1.11 so let me know if it works well. I know 1.8.9 works great and 1.12.2 doesn't have connected textures right now

Features

  • Optimized Rendering
  • Keybind Toggle
  • Connected Textures
  • Optional Chat Notifications
  • Resource Pack Compatible

Usage

Press B to toggle barrier visibility on/off
(Rebind in Options → Controls → Visbarrier)

You'll see a chat notification confirming the toggle:

Barriers ON Barriers OFF
on off

Commands

Mod settings in /visbarrier commands

Command Alias Effect
/visbarrier connect /visbarrier ct Toggle connected textures on/off
/visbarrier notify /visbarrier n Toggle keybind chat notifications on/off

Customization

Override the barrier appearance with a resource pack:

  • Texture: assets/minecraft/textures/blocks/barrier.png
  • Model: assets/minecraft/models/block/barrier.json

If a resource pack provides its own barrier texture, Visbarrier's connected textures are automatically bypassed so the resource pack renders as intended.

TODO

  • Maybe fix 1.12.2 connected textures but honestly I don't know who uses it
  • Also let me know if other versions broken and maybe I'll fix it maybe I won't :)
