Did you heard about Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks? Did you have moments you saw players, mobs, casting powerfull spells but… something was FEELING missing? Well this mod just might gives you the answer!

This small project was created in my free time as a student. If you like my projects, please consider to support me for more future projects and support!

Important!

This mod is published only on Modrinth and CurseForge. If you find it anywhere else, it is not an official upload by me, and downloading from those sites is unsafe.

Features:

This is a lightweight, client-side, cosmetic-only mod that renders magic circles when casting spells!

How does it work?

The mod uses several magic circle variants, each with a different size. The variant is determined by the cast time of the spell:
Longer cast time → larger magic circle.
If a spell is cast instantly/doesn't have a cast time, then no magic circle would be displayed for it. The color is dynamically chosen based on the spell’s class (orange for fire, light blue for ice, dark purple for abyss, etc.). The position of the magic circle is also affected by the chosen variant.

Magic circles are displayed for any entity that is casting and only clients with the mod installed will see them.

(2026-04-11) 1.1.0 Update:

Many bug fixes, new client configuration, new circle textures and animations but most importantly: Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks backport version compatibility! (3.15.0+)
That means that from 1.1.0 version, the mod requires the use of ISAS mod of version 3.15.0 or newer. Magic Circles version 1.0.0 works and could be used for older ISAS versions.

Check out the project GitHub for full changelog.

Thanks for my dear friend for helping with the showcasing!

Also i cant believe the mod reached 10,000 downloads on Curseforge! TY all for downloading!

Compabillity:

The mod was built with care to remain compatible with other ISAS addons. If you find any incompatibilities, please open an issue on my GitHub and I will look into it.

Shaders compatibility is varied but for most is not supported currently. A new version would be released in near future to solve Oculus shaders incompatibility.

Fabric/Neoforge/other minecarft versions porting?

At the moment I don’t have the time, as I’m working on other projects. In the future, I plan to release the source code, and with permission, you will be allowed to create ports. Please open an issue on GitHub if you want to request a port.
