Ever thought that the world behind your inventory was just too distracting? Then this is the mod for you!
Blur adds a Gaussian blur shader to the background of all GUIs, which fades into give it a sleek look. It is also highly configurable, so you can tune the look of the mod to your liking. Click here for a massive gif demonstration!
NOTE: This is the Fabric version of Blur, for the Forge version, look here.
You can configure the strength of the blur in the config file with the "radius" option.
Here is a demonstration of a few different radii:
Change the background colors and gradient!
Get lost in your GUIs!
Gorgeous rainy evening with you and your blur:
Works with shaders! Currently doesn't work with Optifine shaders due to an issue with Satin - consider using Canvas instead.
Explanation of Config Settings
- radius
- As explained above, this controls how "strong" the blur is. If you are experiencing performance problems, lower this.
- fadeTime
- This is the time it takes for the blur to "fade in", in milliseconds.
- gradientStart/EndColor
- The colors to use for the overlay on all GUI backgrounds. The value here is a hexadecimal color value, in the format ARGB (alpha first, then rgb). Because the background is a gradient, two colors can be specified. The default is black with a 45% alpha value (75000000).
- guiExclusions
A list of classes to be excluded from the blur shader. This is to be used for GUIs which do not necessarily cover the screen. It defaults to containing only one GUI, the chat.
I don't really understand how to solve one problem. Whenever I try to change values of radius and fadetime, after reboot of the game, values stay the same, but visualy blur works like standart 200/8 again until I refresh values.

Okay thanks for the report, I'll look into it
can it make like motion blur ?
:D
In reply to Endstarky:
no, it just blurs the world behind all screens with a transparent background
In reply to Motschen:
Can u make or know a mod like what i said? D;
Can it do like motion blur?
:D
Btw, although OptiFine shaders on OptiFine do not work with this mod, you can still use this mod with OptiFine shaders on Iris (I tested). https://github.com/IrisShaders/Iris
Hi, this is so great, but it's incompatible with shaders at the moment.
Do you have an ETA of when will this be fixed?
you're the best for leaving BLM at the bottom, thanks for spreading the word!

I would use this; but my frames plummet from 200 down to 30 when I am standing still (~15 while moving) :( I will be following the project for when it gets optimized (if possible), but until then, im sad that I cannot use it. Good mod anyway, wish my computer was better.
In reply to fossa_fun:
I can't think of a thing in the mod that would decrease performance so badly, are you sure it's Blur's fault?
In reply to Motschen:
Im pretty sure, although it could be that one of the other mods I am using conflicts with it and generates a bit of feedback and lags, but idk. I really like the mod and don't mean to be criticizing if it came across like that.
In reply to fossa_fun:
Do you use optifine together with this mod? Satin (the shader library blur uses) is known to have conflicts with optifine, so it could cause things like this to happen. Also, thanks for the positive feedback :)
In reply to Motschen:
For fps improvment, im using sodium, phosphor, lithium, sodium extras, cull entitiies, better sodium video settings button, better model properties, boosted brightness, cull leaves, dynamic fps, enhanced block entities, entity culling, multiconnect (not an fps improvement mod, but could cause problems), & random patches. I normally get low frames, since my computer is so bad, so I have a lot of fps improvement mods. I mainly use client side mods, and I have somehow managed to get 105 compiled and working together, and I don't feel like listing all of them, but those are the fps improvement mods I use, I don't know if any of them conflict in any way.
In reply to fossa_fun:
Also, I just realized, I had the radius set to the default amount, so im going to try loading it up and changing the radius to a lower setting.
In reply to fossa_fun:
:( I added it and my fps dropped. I tried turning down the radius and it still worked. As a side note, I don't have a github account, but when I turned the radius to 0, I got disconnected from the server. I tried loading this mod without any other mods, and my fps went from 60 down to 20. Darn my computer. Such a great mod, wish my computer could handle it.
In reply to fossa_fun:
The forge version drops your FPS as well, just the amount shouldn't be THAT extreme. Like you said, if you are running an old system (say a 1st gen intel CPU from 12 years ago) then it might be too much.
In reply to SovLV:
Im on a 2013 mac, but I run fabric because I find there to be many more fps improvement mods, plus other convenient mods that just aren't on forge; I like forge, but prefer fabric for just general minecraft, but thanks anyway.
In reply to fossa_fun:
Sorry, I might have worded what I said poorly. I wasn't saying that you should try forge but, the forge and fabric versions both result in lower fps, however the amount should be negligible. But on an extremely weak system, it might result in a huge fps drop. I don't think any performance mod will help in that case! It's hardware related :)
