Custom Crosshair Mod
by Sparkless101
Players who want a crosshair in their own style can use Custom Crosshair Mod to set its size, colour and shape, with dynamic and adaptive options.
What it does
The mod lets a player reshape the crosshair in the middle of the screen. Size, colour and shape can all be set, and the crosshair can react to what the player holds, for example changing while a bow or sword is in hand. An adaptive colour option adjusts the crosshair to the background, and a rainbow mode cycles through hues.
Custom Crosshair Mod is a client-side only mod, so only the player's game needs it, and servers run without it. It is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, and files target 1.8.9 – 26.3 across 26 release versions. The latest builds are v1.6.9 for 26.3, released 2026-09-27 for Forge and NeoForge and 2026-09-21 for Fabric. The mod is not open source; All rights reserved applies to its code.
The mod has one known companion, Custom Crosshair Mod circle fix, which requires it. The author first published the mod on 2022-10-01 and last updated it on 2026-09-27.
Key features
Custom size, colour and shape
The crosshair can be sized, coloured and shaped to suit the player's preference.
Dynamic crosshair
The crosshair can change its appearance when the player holds different items, such as a bow or sword.
Adaptive colour
The crosshair colour adjusts to the background so it stays visible in different scenes.
Rainbow crosshair
A rainbow option cycles the crosshair through colours for a moving, shifting look.
Draw a custom shape
Players can design a crosshair shape of their own rather than choosing a preset.
