However, if the resource pack becomes inactive or doesn&#8217;t receive updates, I will eventually return to this mod if needed!<\/p>\n<p># About<br \/>\nThis Client-Side Minecraft Mod is designed to patch and modify the **Default Dark Mode** resource pack, aiming to be up to par with Newer Minecraft versions &#038; **Default Dark Mode: Expansion** Add-On.<br \/>\n## Credits<br \/>\n**Aric3435** &#8211; The creator of the **Default Dark Mode: Patcher** mod.<br \/>\n**NebuIr** &#8211; The creator of the **Default Dark Mode** resource pack.<br \/>\n**Vi_Tul** &#8211; Updated the Shader Files (`rendertype_text.fsh` &#038; `rendertype_text_intensity.fsh`) for **25w19a+ (1.21.6-1.21.8)** &#8211; Removed in &#8220;Default Dark Mode: Patcher v1.2.0+&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>## Update: DDM 2026.2.0<br \/>\nNebuIr published an update to the resource pack for 1.21.6-1.21.11 https:\/\/modrinth.com\/resourcepack\/default-dark-mode\/version\/2026.2.0-1.21.11 but that doesn&#8217;t make the patcher useless yet, the patcher allows it to support Minecraft 26.1 Snapshots! But when I do start the update v1.3.3 of the mod, it will target the latest release of the resource pack &#038; remove the duplicate textures it adds!<\/p>\n<p>## How to use<br \/>\n1. Install **Default Dark Mode: Patcher**<br \/>\n2. Start the game\u2014the patcher will automatically uncompress the zip file, apply the files I mentioned above, and recompress it.<br \/>\n3. Once patched, uninstall **Default Dark Mode: Patcher**\u2014it\u2019s mostly just a one-time-use tool designed to modify the Resource Pack.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/7ad4c2e05801b95ec8fd7f1bfc02a170412603b6.png\" alt=\"Hosting Banner\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Client-Side Minecraft Mod that Patches and Modifies the \u201cDefault Dark Mode\u201d resource pack for Newer Minecraft Versions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":55561,"template":"","meta":{"_minecraft_slug":"default-dark-mode-patcher","_minecraft_project_id":"I3sFyr3f","_minecraft_author":"aric3435","_minecraft_license":"CC-BY-NC-SA-4.0","_minecraft_downloads":22268,"_minecraft_follows":19,"_minecraft_client_side":"required","_minecraft_server_side":"unsupported","_minecraft_storage_type":"zip","_minecraft_archive_name":"default-dark-mode-patcher.zip","_minecraft_size_bytes":117803,"_minecraft_version_count":8,"_minecraft_updated_at":"2026-05-16T22:30:46.887185Z","_minecraft_date_created":"2025-06-17T23:36:23.964914Z","_minecraft_date_modified":"2026-01-16T08:20:35.894411Z","_minecraft_project_url":"https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/default-dark-mode-patcher","_minecraft_icon_attachment_id":55561,"_minecraft_imported_at":"2026-06-03T02:03:06+00:00","_minecraft_import_hash":"c27daac7a80394056b029cde52fe7f92","_minecraft_versions":"","_minecraft_links":"","_minecraft_gallery":"","_minecraft_api_metadata":""},"mod_category":[97,158,92],"mod_loader":[99],"minecraft_version":[40,41,79,780,781,782,783,784,80,81,82,777,778,779,802,803,804,805,806,807,816,817,818,819,820,821],"class_list":["post-55560","mod","type-mod","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mod_category-fabric","mod_category-neoforge","mod_category-utility","mod_loader-fabric","minecraft_version-1-21-10","minecraft_version-1-21-11","minecraft_version-1-21-6","minecraft_version-1-21-6-pre1","minecraft_version-1-21-6-pre2","minecraft_version-1-21-6-pre3","minecraft_version-1-21-6-pre4","minecraft_version-1-21-6-rc1","minecraft_version-1-21-7","minecraft_version-1-21-8","minecraft_version-1-21-9","minecraft_version-25w19a","minecraft_version-25w20a","minecraft_version-25w21a","minecraft_version-25w41a","minecraft_version-25w42a","minecraft_version-25w43a","minecraft_version-25w44a","minecraft_version-25w45a","minecraft_version-25w46a","minecraft_version-26-1-snapshot-1","minecraft_version-26-1-snapshot-2","minecraft_version-26-1-snapshot-3","minecraft_version-26-1-snapshot-4","minecraft_version-26-1-snapshot-5","minecraft_version-26-1-snapshot-6"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
