Clean Hitbox
by MineBoost
Clean Hitbox changes how the F3+B hitbox display looks on Fabric clients, drawing entity boxes with clearer, customizable colors.
What it does
Clean Hitbox is a lightweight Fabric client mod that replaces Minecraft's default F3+B hitbox display with clearer visuals. Entity boxes are easier to read during fast-paced combat, and their colors can be customized to highlight targets. The mod is strictly visual: it does not alter hit detection, reach or combat mechanics, and it makes no server-side changes.
The mod requires YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL) to provide its settings screen. Clean Hitbox is client-side only, so only the client needs it, and servers run without it. The code is open source under the MIT License, and public links exist for the source code and the issue tracker. Latest builds are 1.0.1 for 1.21.11, published on 2026-05-06.
Key features
Clearer hitbox outlines
Entity hitboxes are drawn with cleaner lines than the default F3+B display, making entity positions easier to read.
Customizable target colors
Colors used to highlight targets can be changed, so the display can match the player's preferences in busy scenes.
Real-time range display
The targeting range is shown in real time, helping players judge where an entity sits relative to their reach.
Visual only
Rendering changes apply only to the screen and leave hit detection and reach untouched.

Use cases
Practicing PvP timing
Players studying combat can see exact entity boxes while they practice timing and range against other players.
Reading entity positions in crowded areas
Clearer outlines help players track mobs in dense farms or raids without relying on the default display.
Who it’s for: Players who use the F3+B hitbox view during combat, and anyone who wants a clearer read on entity positions on the client. Server owners do not need to install anything for it.
How it compares

What the author says
Minecraft’s default hitboxes are useful but very minimal and hard to read during fast-paced combat. Clean Hitbox improves this by making them clear, customizable, and visually optimized so you can better understand entity positioning, range, and targeting in real time. This mod is strictly visual-only and does not…
