Navigating sprawling cave systems and massive builds becomes much easier when you can leave colored markers behind. Chalk Colorful Addon Mod extends the popular Chalk mod by introducing 15 different colored chalks that match the standard Minecraft color palette, plus a default white option for neutral markings. With over 865,000 downloads on Modrinth, this lightweight addon has become a go-to choice for players who want more expressive waypoint marking in their worlds.
Key Features
- 15 colored chalks — Every standard Minecraft dye color is represented, letting you create a personal color-coding system for cave exploration, base navigation, or multiplayer communication.
- Default white chalk — A neutral option that stands out on most block surfaces without clashing with colored builds or terrain.
- Seamless Chalk mod integration — Works as a direct addon to the base Chalk mod, so all existing chalk mechanics apply to the new colors.
