SteakkkClient
by SteakkkGamer
SteakkkClient is a Fabric client-side mod for 1.21.1 that adds smooth animations, zoom, sprint and nametag options, plus a built-in FPS counter and ping display.
What it does
Installed on the client, SteakkkClient changes how the game looks and how the interface behaves. A cinematic intro plays when a player enters a world, and a customizable interface brings animated menus, glowing accents and transitions. Players can arrange HUD widgets anywhere on the screen with drag controls and snap guides, and build a minimal or detailed performance layout.
Several quality-of-life options are included. A hotkey zoom can be scrolled in and out, sprint can stay on without holding a key, fullbright lighting helps in dark caves, and third-person nametags can carry a customizable colour and logo. Quick totem utilities let players swap a totem into the off-hand from a hotbar slot. The mod is published only for Fabric, for 1.21.1, and the environment is client-side only, so servers need nothing and players join without installing it. It is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.
