Dungeon Hotbar

by FoxMage3243

Dungeon Hotbar replaces the default Minecraft hotbar with a redesigned version inspired by Minecraft Dungeons, and it is a Fabric client mod.

FabricClient-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.20.1 – 26.1.2

What it does

The mod swaps the standard hotbar for a reworked one. Its look takes cues from Minecraft Dungeons, while the rest of the interface stays as Minecraft draws it, so the game keeps its original layout and feel. The hotbar is drawn through Fabric API's HudElementRegistry, which lets it render smoothly within the HUD system.

Textures for the hotbar come from DartCat25, whose original hotbar art the mod uses. Dungeon Hotbar requires Fabric API on Fabric, and it has no other dependencies. The author notes it works alongside most interface and HUD mods. The mod is open source under the MIT License, with a public source repository and issue tracker. Builds cover 1.20.1 – 26.1.2, with the latest Fabric file, 1.0.3, targeting 1.21.1.

Key features

  1. Redesigned hotbar

    The default hotbar is replaced by a layout with a more atmospheric, polished appearance.

  2. Dungeons-inspired style

    Visual choices follow the look of Minecraft Dungeons while keeping the rest of the interface unchanged.

  3. Original hotbar textures

    The hotbar art is DartCat25's original work, included with the mod.

  4. Smooth HUD rendering

    The hotbar is registered through Fabric API's HudElementRegistry for stable, smooth drawing.

Use cases

Themed survival play

Pairing with other HUD mods
