SuperSimpleHolograms
by Ghost
SuperSimpleHolograms lets server owners create and manage floating text displays from chat commands and a config file, without restarting the server.
What it does
Holograms are built from invisible armor stands that carry text lines. An administrator creates a named display in a given dimension at set coordinates, then adds, replaces or removes individual lines, moves the display or deletes it. Commands also list the existing displays, and the config can be reloaded while the server keeps running.
Because the displays live on the server, players join with nothing installed and simply see the text in the world. Installation needs only Fabric API on the server, and the mod is server-side only. Files exist for Fabric across five game versions, 1.21 – 1.21.4, with 1.1.8 for 1.21.4 as the latest file, released under a custom license that is not open source.
Key features
Named holograms
Each display gets a name, a dimension and coordinates, so it can be referenced by commands later.
Line editing
Lines can be added, replaced by new content or removed by index without rebuilding the whole display.
Moving and deleting
A display can be relocated to new coordinates or removed entirely, and a list command shows all current displays.
Formatting and repairs
Text supports the mod's own formatters, and the author notes that most problems with armor stands are fixed by respawning them.
