Enhanced Overlay

by PhantomBridger

Enhanced Overlay is a Fabric utility that lets players adjust how the HUD and overlay elements look, from one settings screen.

FabricClient-side onlyMozilla Public License 2.0Open source1.21.4 – 26.2

What it does

Enhanced Overlay gives players control over several overlay elements from a single settings screen. Players can adjust how the overlay elements appear without editing files by hand. Text background opacity can be set to 0, which also removes the chat background that the vanilla accessibility settings do not fully turn off.

The mod runs on the client alone, so players install it and servers do not need it. It has to be on the Fabric loader, and it requires Fabric API and YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL); its settings screen uses the YACL config system. Mod Menu is optional and lists the mod on its configuration screen when present. Files are published for 1.21.4, 1.21.5, 1.21.8, 1.21.11, 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2 and 26.2, and the code is open source under the Mozilla Public License 2.0.

Key features

  1. Overlay settings screen

    A single screen gathers the options for the overlay elements, so each can be changed in one place.

  2. Fake enchantment glint

    An option adds a fake enchantment glint to items, drawn with the same texture as the normal glint.

  3. Text background control

    Text background opacity can be set to 0, removing the chat background and other text backgrounds.

  4. Potion particle toggle

    Potion effect particles can be turned off for the first-person view, so the player's own view stays clear.

Does the server need Enhanced Overlay?

No. Only the player's game needs it, and servers run without it.
