Description
Transparent allows resource packs to give certain entities textures with transparent (or translucent) pixels. To use, simply install the mod and use or create a resource pack that gives one of the supported entities a transparent texture.
Resource pack used in the above image: [BwW Texturepack](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/texture-packs/bww-texturepack).
Officially supports [Paintings++ Mod](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/paintings)!
## Supported Entities
| Entity | Enabled By Default | Reason | Versions |
|------------------|--------------------|-------------------------------------------------|----------|
| Armor Stand | true | | 1.19.4+ |
| End Crystal | true | | |
| End Crystal Beam | true | | 1.21+ |
| Item Frame | true | | |
| Painting | true | | |
| Player Cape | true | | 1.21+ |

If you want another entity to be supported by this mod, please let me know on [Discord](https://discord.gg/aqXkvbJ) or [GitHub Issues](https://github.com/Trikzon/transparent/issues).
