Dehand

by haykam

Dehand is a Fabric client mod that removes the first-person hand from the screen.

FabricClient-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.16 – 1.16.5

What it does

Dehand stops the player's hand from being drawn in first-person view. The setting can be configured so the hand is always shown, never shown, or shown only while the player is swinging an item. It needs the Fabric mod loader and works only on the client, so servers can run without it. Files are released for 1.16 – 1.16.5 under the MIT License, and the project is open source.

Key features

  1. Hidden first-person hand

    The hand held in first-person view is not drawn, leaving the rest of the screen clear.

  2. Configurable hand display

    The hand can be set to always show, never show, or show only while an item is being swung.

  3. Single-player and multiplayer

    Because only the client changes, the mod can be used in any world without server installation.
