This is one enhancement that has will revolutionized the way you display your items is the use of invisible item frames. In this article, I will teach how you can get your item to have an invisible frame and be the cool kid on the block.
Why Use Invisible Item Frames in Minecraft Though?
Imagine walking into a Minecraft house and seeing a shimmering diamond sword floating ethereally against a stone wall, with no strings attached—quite literally. This isn’t the work of sorcery but the clever use of invisible item frames. These frames are a game-changer for decorators and builders aiming for a minimalist look or a magical ambiance.
Or you might just think to have it for esthetic perfection and functional design; we often find ourselves limited by the visible boundaries of item frames. But what if I told you that you could display your prized possessions without the unsightly wooden borders? That’s where invisible item frames come into play, allowing for a seamless exhibition of your artifacts.
Here’s How to Get Invisible Item Frames in Minecraft
In Minecraft, there are two main worlds: Bedrock and Java. I tread mostly on the Java side, where the freedom to tweak and twist the game’s mechanics is as boundless as the skies above. Here’s how I, as a pro player, make my item frames vanish into thin air:
For Java Edition Players
Note: Make sure your game version is updated to at least version 1.16, as this is the minimum requirement for our upcoming incantation.
- In the Java Edition, the command window is your wand. With a swift T or / key press, you can conjure up the command input box.
- Use this command, with the game updated to at least version 1.16, I cast the following command:
/give @s item_frame{EntityTag:{Invisible:1}}.
This spell is precise; not a character must be out of place.
- Choose the item you want to be invisible: on this step you will choose the item to get the invisble frame. That’s where the power of command targets comes in:
@a bestows the frame upon every soul in the server.@e grants it to all entities, animate and inanimate.@p delivers it to the nearest player, often myself.@r selects a random player, adding an element of surprise.
Once chosen, the invisible frame materializes in the inventory of the chosen one.
For BedRock Version User
For Berock players, the process of having invisible frames are a little bit long but once you have the necessary tools havign those items will be easy! Unlike Java that uses direct commands, in Bedrock the art of modding is the way. With a mod, such as the one found on CurseForge, you can replace the mundane with the invisible. The process is a simple ritual of installation, and voilà, you have your invisible frames.
Use A Texture Mod Pack
- Simply go to this CurseForge link and download the Invisible Texture Pack.
- Installing it on your Bedrock Minecraft is a breeze. Simply copy the content of the Zip file you have downloaded and paste it on your Minecraft Installation folder.
With this mods installed on your Minecraft Bedrock you can easily create items such as a floating gardens of potted plants, walls adorned with floating maps of my conquests, and show off my arsenal of enchanted weapons as if by magic. How cool is that? The invisible frame is not just a tool; it’s a canvas for my imagination.
In Conclusion
Invisible item frames are more than just a means to display items; they are a gateway to a new dimension of Minecraft creativity. Whether you’re a Java sage or a Bedrock warrior, the ability to showcase your items without the clutter of a frame is a small detail that can transform your space into something truly extraordinary. So go forth, fellow Minecrafters, and let your items float with the majesty they deserve.
