TierOverlay
by owyr8.
TierPlates shows player tier badges from MCtiers, PvPTiers and Subtiers on nametags, the chat tab list and the player list, as a client-side Fabric overlay.
What it does
Tier badges from the MCtiers, PvPTiers and Subtiers providers appear next to player names in nametags, the tab list and chat. The display is client-only and changes only what this client renders; it does not alter gameplay or send actions to the server, and the visual result can vary between servers because some use custom chat tab and nametag systems.
Settings cover the display mode, including specific gamemodes or the highest tier a player holds, and a left or right layout for each provider. Icon size and tier colors can be adjusted, and an in-game configuration menu is opened through the tiersbyowyr7 entry. The mod is built for Fabric and needs Fabric API on the client, and it is published for 1.21.11 only, with the source code under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, so it is open source.
The source code and issue tracker are public. The first build was published on 2026-05-30 and the latest file, 1.0.1 for 1.21.11, is on the beta channel.
Key features
Badges in three places

Three tier providers
Tier data comes from MCtiers, PvPTiers and Subtiers, and each provider can be placed on its own side of the name.
Display mode options
The display can focus on specific gamemodes or show the highest tier a player holds, depending on the chosen mode.
Icon and color settings
Icon size, tier colors and the left or right layout are adjustable, with an in-game configuration menu.
