CPSDisplay
by Dams4K
CPSDisplay shows the player's clicks per second on screen, and the text, colors and display mode can be customized.
What it does
The overlay counts left and right mouse clicks over the last second and draws the result in the game window. Each click is counted separately, so both buttons can be watched at once. The display mode can be changed with the P key, which opens the configuration screen. Four modes are available, and the first three use the default text, which can be redefined through the mod's language files and resource packs. Text can read up to 999 characters, and a placeholder code marks where the left or right click count appears.
The mod offers a built-in color selector, a transparent background cut-out around the text so the result stays readable, and scaling options that set how large the display is. Minecraft formatting codes can be used for custom styling, and a text color can be set to shift over time or to keep a fixed alpha channel. Changes take effect without restarting the game.
Installation needs Forge only, and the environment is client-side only, so the server needs nothing. Files are published for 1.20.5 and older releases, with 3.0.0.a5 for 1.20.5 as the latest, released in the alpha channel on 2025-07-21. The code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only.
Key features
Left and right click counts
Clicks are tracked separately for each mouse button and displayed as a live count per second.
Four display modes
Four modes change how the counter looks, with the first three using the default text and the fourth mode flashing in a rapid pattern.
Custom text and colors
The displayed text can be redefined in language files, and a built-in color selector provides color choices without editing files.
Background and scaling
The background around the text can be cut out, and the display size can be scaled to suit the screen layout.
