Noctara Holograms
by vxrcy
Noctara Holograms lets server owners place editable floating text, item, scoreboard and leaderboard holograms in a world, and it is Fabric-only for 1.20.1.
What it does
Holograms are created in the world and can hold several lines of text that are edited, inserted or removed one at a time. Item holograms display a chosen item, scoreboard holograms show objective values, and leaderboard holograms list ranked entries. Placeholders are supported, so a line can show live data without the text being copied by hand.
Each hologram can be styled without changing its text: scale, alignment, rotation, billboard behaviour and background are all adjustable, and per-line X, Y and Z offsets place individual lines precisely. Render modes add a floating or bobbing motion, a typewriter reveal, and particle effects chosen from presets. Management is done through server-side commands.
The mod runs on Fabric for Minecraft 1.20.1 and requires Fabric API and Java 17. It is server-side only, so players join without installing anything, and the server owner is the one who installs it. The latest file is 1.0.0 for 1.20.1, published on 2026-06-29, and the code is not open source, released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Multi-line text holograms
Floating text holograms hold several editable lines that can be inserted, removed or reordered.
Item and scoreboard holograms
Holograms can display an item or the value of a scoreboard objective, updating as the data changes.
Leaderboard holograms
Ranked lists of players or values are shown as a hologram built from the same line controls.
Animated render modes
Bobbing motion, a typewriter text reveal and particle presets give holograms animated appearances.
Per-line offsets and styling
Each line can be moved on the X, Y and Z axes, and scale, alignment, rotation and background are adjustable.

How it compares
Elite Holograms is open source under the MIT License and runs on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge for 1.19.2 – 26.2, so it covers more loaders and versions than Noctara Holograms. SuperSimpleHolograms is server-side only on Fabric for 1.21 – 1.21.4, using a custom license, and does not overlap with the 1.20.1 build. Leaderboard Hologram is server-side and MIT-licensed on Fabric for 1.20.1 – 26.1.1, and is the closest alternative for a 1.20.1 server that wants leaderboards.
