What it does

The datapack is placed in the datapacks folder of a world, either as a folder or a .zip file, and it works on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. Only the server has to run it: players may leave it out and still see the day counter when they join. Game versions covered are 1.21.6 – 26.3, with files for 1.21.6, 1.21.7, 1.21.8, 1.21.9, 1.21.10, 1.21.11, 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2, 26.2 and 26.3.

The counter draws a colorful bossbar with a time-of-day progress bar whose color changes through the day phases, plus an animated actionbar with a rotating spinner and the next live day number. When a new day starts, a title and subtitle play with fireworks particles and a launch sound. Viewers can hide the bossbar or actionbar, and an interactive panel offers buttons, a live day readout and help. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Color-coded bossbar

    A bossbar shows the day and a progress bar that changes color as the day moves through its phases.

  2. Animated actionbar

    A spinner cycles colors beside the next live day number, and the progress bar fills along with the day.

  3. New-day celebration

    When a day begins, a timed title, subtitle, burst of fireworks and launch sound mark the change.

  4. Dialog menu

    An interactive panel with buttons, a live day readout and help lets players control the display without operator commands.

Who it’s for: Server owners who want a day counter that needs no commands from players, and players in survival series or challenge runs who want to see how many days have passed.
