HUDTexts
by 0muretu1
HUDTexts lets a player place custom text anywhere on the screen as a HUD overlay on Fabric for 1.21.11.
What it does
HUDTexts displays a line of text the player sets, drawn over the game screen. The text position is adjustable along the X and Y axes, so the same overlay can sit in a corner or near the crosshair, and it can be hidden again with a toggle. Because it changes only what the client draws, it can be used to build personal HUD layouts in single-player or on a server.
The mod is a client mod: only the player's client needs it, and servers run without it. It targets Fabric Loader and a single game version, 1.21.11, with one build, 1.0, published on 2026-07-16. HUDTexts is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike 4.0 license and is not open source.
Key features
Custom HUD text
Any text string can be set as the displayed line, which makes it a simple way to show notes or labels on screen.
Free position control
The X and Y position of the text can be changed to place it anywhere on the screen.
Toggle visibility
The overlay can be switched off and on without changing the stored text or position.
Client-only HUD
The overlay is drawn on the client alone, so it adds no content to the server or the world.

Use cases
Personal reminders
A short note can stay on screen during a build or a long session, placed where the player looks most often.

Who it’s for: Players who want a simple custom text overlay on their own screen, and streamers or builders who prefer a plain label to a full HUD mod.
