What it does

ExHUD: Directors Cut is a port of the standalone Fabric mod ExHUD, kept in line with the legacy releases of PlayerEx. It is a client-side mod, so only the player's own game needs it and servers run without it. Installation requires Fabric API and Fabric Language Kotlin, and the mod is published for Fabric and Quilt with a single build, 1.3.0+1.20.1, for 1.20.1.

Each bar has a set position on screen: health sits at the left and the utility bars at the right. When the player holds a food item, its food value appears as a percentage and blinks briefly after consumption, which makes it easier to judge the effect of eating. The food display works in a way similar to AppleSkin, which is an optional companion. Any part of the display can be switched off through the mod's config, so the overlay can be trimmed to the bars a player wants.

Key features

  1. Restyled status bars

    Health, armor, food, air and experience bars are redrawn in a minimalist look meant to suit RPG-style play.

  2. Fixed bar positions

    Health appears on the left of the screen and utility bars on the right, keeping the centre free.

  3. Food value on hold

    Holding a food item shows its food percentage, and the value blinks after the item is eaten.

  4. Config toggles

    Individual features can be disabled in the config file, so players keep only the elements they want.

Who it’s for: Players on Fabric or Quilt running Minecraft 1.20.1 who want a compact, RPG-styled status overlay. The mod is client-side, so it is installed by the player and not required on the server.

Questions

Does ExHUD: Directors Cut need Fabric API?

Yes. Fabric API and Fabric Language Kotlin are both required dependencies for the Fabric build, which targets 1.20.1.

Does the server need ExHUD: Directors Cut installed?

No. It is installed on the player's side alone, so servers need nothing.

Can the overlay be trimmed?

Yes. Features are disabled through the mod's config file, so each element can be turned off on its own.
