OptiGUI

OptiGUI

A client side drop-in replacement for OptiFine custom GUIs.

This mod supports most OptiFine GUI resource packs. I didn’t do an extensive test with the .properties files, because I couldn’t find such a resource pack.
If a resource pack does not work or works differently than using OptiFine, please open an issue.

How do I use it

1. Download and install Fabric
2. Download Fabric API and put it in your mods folder
3. Download this mod from GitHub releases, Modrinth, or MinecraftPatch
4. Put this mod in your mods folder

Partially supported resource packs
