WayGL

Make GLFW use wayland on linux systems

It's on Modrinth

Heres the url: https://modrinth.com/mod/waygl

If you are running the game inside a sandbox, e.g. by using a launcher packaged as a flatpak, make sure to allow the paths listed below to be accessed for this mod to function correctly!

Accesses Paths & Programs and why

This part is mostly copied from wayland-fixes by Moehreag

Features

  • Option to use native GLFW binary in mod config (Available in ModMenu and <instance>/config)
  • Injects a .desktop file and the icon in the correct locations for them to function correctly
  • Loads & Displays a virtual cursor on in-game screens to support setting the cursor position when toggles on in the config

Properties

  • virtual_mouse.export may be passed as true to export the loaded cursor to a cursors directory in the instance folder. It will contain all images contained in the cursor as well as all metadata. It will also create a human-readable metadata file for each image, and a cursor.cursor file in the cursor config format. This file may be used to generate a new X11 cursor out of the images with the xcursorgen program.

Accessed Paths

  • $HOME/.local/share/applications/com.mojang.minecraft.desktop (write)
  • $HOME/.local/share/icons/hicolor/apps/{16x16, 32x32}/minecraft.png (write)
  • $HOME/.local/share/icons/<theme>/cursors/left_ptr (read only)
  • $HOME/.icons/<theme>/cursors/left_ptr (read only)
  • /usr/share/icons/<theme>/cursors/left_ptr (read only)

Accessed Programs

  • xdg-icon-resource (to update the icon system)
  • gsettings (to query for cursor theme & size)

Credits

  • Moehreag (Icon Injection and Virtual Cursor implementation, go check out their wayland mod wayland-fixes)
  • KDE visual design group (the fallback cursor file shipped with the mod is from KDE's breeze cursor theme)
