Item Counter Mod
by ImToggle
Item Counter Mod, a Forge utility for Minecraft 1.8.9, shows how many of each item a player holds on a configurable on-screen panel.
What it does
The mod draws a screen that lists the amount of each item in the player's inventory. Players can reorder the items in the config page, moving entries up or down to set their display order, and can lay the list out horizontally or vertically. A toggle controls whether item metadata is checked, so items with different damage values can be counted separately or together.
Holding an item and pressing the add key adds it to the counter list, and the mod can be adjusted from its config page without editing files. The config screen is built on OneConfig, which is bundled inside the mod, so no separate install is needed for it.
The mod is published for Forge 1.8.9 only. Its latest file is 1.0.1 for 1.8.9, dated 2024-07-26. It runs on the client alone, so only the player needs to install it, and it is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 or later.

How it compares
Modern CPS is a Forge mod for 1.8.9 that is also client-side only, released under the MIT License. ResourceCounter is client-side only for 1.8.9 as well, under All rights reserved. Raid Counter is for 1.19.2 – 1.20.1 and needs both client and server, with All rights reserved, so it covers a different version range and environment.
