Dyed Books

Minecraft 版本： 1.20.4

Small Minecraft mod that allows you to dye books like you can with leather armor.

The title and description says it all! You can dye books by combining a book and dyes together.

Update as of December 2025: This mod is likely supposed to be a data pack. Hopefully I'll remember to make a data pack version soon.

The mod does not 'add' new items - it simply adjusts the book item itself. Because of this, if the world is loaded without the mod present, these books should not disappear since the book still exists in the game. (I have yet to test this). If you have a modded world that you continously upgrade along with new of Minecraft, this is a great addition. You won't lose your books on an upgrade if you forget to load this mod.

• Note: Some dyes (like white or yellow) may not appear as bright as it should, so the tinted overlay texture may need to be slightly adjusted a little.

• Note: Written Book Textures

  • The "Written Book" texture in the game's resource pack is actually not the same as a regular book or a book and quill. It's slightly darker. It's just hard to notice because of the glint. For now, the model is the same as the book so its a bit more consistent if you have another way to remove the glint, so you don't have to play eeny-meeny-miny-moe with it after you spent time finding what color tint you want for your book. Same goes for the book and quill.
