Mount Opacity Mod (1.21.8, 1.20.1) – Minecraft Clearer View When Riding Mobs

download Skip to Downloads

Riding mobs in Minecraft whether it’s a horse, pig, strider, or custom mount often results in a frustratingly blocked view, especially when the mob’s head takes up half the screen. Mount Opacity Mod (1.21.8, 1.20.1) solves this by letting you adjust the transparency of rideable mobs, giving you a much clearer field of vision without removing the model entirely. Compatible with Fabric, NeoForge, and Quilt, this lightweight visual mod is a must-have for exploration, adventure maps, and PvP scenarios involving mounts.

Mount Opacity Mod

Features:

  • Adjustable Opacity for Rideable Mobs:
    Fine-tune how transparent a mob appears while you’re riding it.
  • Improves Visibility:
    Prevents the mount’s head and body from obstructing your view, especially useful when looking down or aiming.
  • Per-Mob Configuration:
    Set different opacity levels for different rideable mobs (e.g. make horses semi-transparent, pigs nearly invisible).
  • Client-Side Mod:
    No need for servers to install it perfect for solo play or multiplayer with vanilla behavior.
  • Supports Most Rideable Entities:
    Works with vanilla mobs (horses, pigs, striders) and likely supports modded mounts too.
  • Configuration Options:
    Easily accessible via Mod Menu or config files depending on loader.
