Fancy Crosshair
by TigreSoto1
Fancy Crosshair replaces the default crosshair in Fabric with a customizable one, plus a separate target crosshair that appears on the entity being hit.
What it does
The mod draws a configurable crosshair that players can shape almost part by part. Each element can be changed on its own, and the main crosshair and the target crosshair are configured independently. Ten built-in presets give a starting point, and a custom drawing option lets players build their own shape, with support for custom colors, scale and opacity.
Fancy Crosshair targets PvP play and aims for clean visuals. It can show outlines, hit animations and a pop effect when a hit lands, and it changes the target indicator when the crosshair points at another entity or player. Cooldown and indicator displays for shields and elytra are included as well. The mod runs on Fabric and only the client needs it, so servers do not have to install anything. Files are published for 1.20.4 – 26.3 across eleven release versions, and the latest Fabric build is v2-26.3 for 26.3, released 2026-09-19.
