Potion Duration HUD
by never_lite
Potion Duration HUD shows how much time remains on each active potion effect, with warnings before an effect runs out.
What it does
Active potion effects are listed on the HUD with their remaining duration, so a player can plan around a Strength or Regeneration timer without opening the inventory. The display can be moved with the GUI Setup screen and its transparency adjusted, which keeps it clear of other overlays.
Fifteen seconds before an effect expires, the entry starts blinking and an optional warning sound can play. Notification sounds are configurable, and the interface text is localized. The mod runs on the client, and the server needs it too, since the environment is client and server. It is built for Fabric on Minecraft 1.21.4 and is released under a license that does not make the code open source, so the source is not available for reuse. Only the 1.0.0 file exists for 1.21.4, published 2026-08-13.

A sound can play with the warning, and its notification sound is adjustable in the settings.
Movable, transparent display

Brewing long sessions
During long play sessions, the list of effects and their timers stays visible without a trip to the inventory.
Who it’s for: Players on Fabric 1.21.4 who use potions often and want their effect timers on screen. Server owners who run the mod also need it on the server, since the environment is client and server.
