SMWYG-FIx

This project fixes the SMWYG force leave bug.

SMWYG Fix

A lightweight, client-side drop-in fix for the Show Me What You Got (SMWYG) mod.

The Problem

The original SMWYG mod can occasionally cause client crashes or server kicks under specific conditions:

  • Illegal Characters Kick: When sharing items with certain formatting codes inherited from server-side plugins or other mods, the game may kick you for "Illegal characters in chat".

Features

This mod applies surgical fixes via Mixins to solve these issues without altering original functionality:

  • Automatic Sanitization: Strips illegal section signs (§) from item display names before they are sent to the chat field, preventing kicks.
  • Bounds Memory: Implements index-aware sanitization to ensure SMWYG's internal character tracking remains accurate.

Installation

  1. Ensure you have the Fabric Loader installed for 1.20.1.
  2. Download the smwyg-fix JAR.
  3. Place it in your .minecraft/mods folder along with the original Show Me What You Got mod.
  4. Launch the game. No configuration is required.

Compatibility

  • Minecraft: 1.20.1
  • Fabric Loader: >=0.14.22
  • Environment: Client-side only. This mod does not need to be (but can be) installed on a server.

Credits

  • This mod is a patch for Show Me What You Got, originally created by Apace.

Note: This is an unofficial fix and is not affiliated with the original mod author.
