What it does

Helpful Crosshair shows quality-of-life indicators beside the crosshair, so a player can read certain information without opening a menu. The hints are a client-side addition, so only the player's own game needs the mod and a server can run without it. The mod is published for Fabric only, with builds for 1.21.5, 1.21.8, 1.21.11 and 26.2, and the latest file targets 26.2.

Key features

  1. Crosshair indicators

    Small hints appear next to the crosshair, giving quick information during play.

  2. Generated config file

    A helpful crosshair config file is created on the first launch of the game with the mod installed.

  3. Toggle hints

    Each hint can be enabled or disabled in the config, so players keep only the indicators they want.

Questions
