LogConsole
by fufuWka
LogConsole opens a separate console window alongside Minecraft, where players can read and filter the game's logs and type commands.
What it does
When the game starts, LogConsole opens its own window built with Windows Swing. It mirrors the Minecraft log into that window and includes a command entry line, so the logs can be read without opening a terminal or a macro tool. Output is colorized with ANSI colors, and filters and font settings let players adjust what they see.
The mod is client-side only, so only the player's game needs it. It depends on Fabric API and is published for Fabric alone, with files for 1.21.6, 1.21.7 and 1.21.8. The code is under the Apache License 2.0, but the project is not open source. The first file appeared on 2026-04-03 and the latest Fabric build followed on 2026-04-06.
Key features
Separate console window
A Swing window opens next to the game and duplicates the Minecraft log output.
Command entry
A text field in the console window accepts commands that interact with the running game.
Colorized log output
ANSI colors mark log lines, and filters and font settings control how the output looks.
Quick actions
Log files can be imported and viewed, with quick actions triggered by a press or a click.
Built-in editor
A small Java launcher and editor ship with the build, so settings can be changed without manually editing files.

Use cases
Reading logs during testing
Modpack authors and mod developers can watch the log live in a window that stays separate from the game.
Browsing older logs
Log files can be imported into the console, so earlier sessions can be filtered without a text editor.
Who it’s for: The mod suits players who run the game on Windows and want the log and a command line in one place. Its window relies on Swing, so the console is tied to desktop systems.
