Offhand view
by Windows6502
Offhand view lets a player see the item held in the left hand, which the game otherwise does not display for an arbitrary item in the offhand slot.
What it does
Offhand view changes how the offhand item is shown on the left side of the screen, so whatever a player holds there appears as it would in the main hand. The author describes it as a 26.3 update mod and notes that it can be used alongside a separate mod that adds a similar left-hand view. It runs on the client alone, so servers do not need it and players can join without installing it. Builds exist for 26.1.2 – 26.3, and the latest file is 1.0.0 for 26.3, published on 2026-09-21 under All rights reserved.
Key features
Left-hand item display
Any item held in the offhand slot is drawn on the left side of the view, not only the items the game already shows there.
Offhand behaves like a normal left hand
The displayed item follows the offhand as a normal left hand would, so holding something there reads clearly while playing.
Optional companion mod
The author lists a related mod that handles the left hand, which the mod can work alongside on Fabric.
