I'm using BetterF3 to hide NESW and co-ordinates from players, so more skill is involved in navigation. This is working great, but we've run into someone that just edits the mod's configs to restore it all. Thoughts on adding the ability to force clients to sync to the server's BetterF3 config?
I'm using Feather 1.19.2 and my game crashes if I try to run it
feather is unsupported
I just made the best looking f3 screen I can think of:
If you want to use it, navigate in your .minecraft>config>betterf3.json file and paste following text and if you have a small screen you can disable tps graph from betterf3 general settings:

im still confused to why this mode to this day still cuts my FPS from 120FPS right down to 20FPS.
unfortunately i will not be using this mod until this issue is resolved as i like to have the F3 open 90% of the time since im a resource pack creator and alot of the F3 info is needed when making resource packs.
In reply to iiKraze:
Looks like something is clogging your CPU, depending on what version you run, installing Magnesium could help with that as its options improve CPU usage greatly. I currently use them both on 1.16.5 without issue
This mod is amazing and exactly what I was looking for. My debug screen is so clean! But I can't figure out a way to remove the profiler graph (the pie chart on the bottom right). I can't find any setting to disable it in this mod's config or the vanilla Minecraft video settings. Google is only telling me how to fix the glitch where it stays on the screen after you exit f3, but I want it gone entirely. What should I do?
Doesn't seem to be playing nice with Baritone:
Before it worked fine for me but suddenly the mod stopped showing information when I press F3, only the debug crosshair is shown.
In reply to richie_biersack:
Exactly the same issue for me! Did you figure out the cause?
In reply to Mudkipninja:
same here
In reply to richie_biersack:
have you by any chance installed the mod "Friends&Foes"?
In any case, I get the same error when this is activated.
i cant find the day count, where is it?
In reply to euaggelow:
It should be under location (weird I know) in left modules. At least it is for me
.
Hey, I featured BetterF3 on my recent video on Quality of Life mods. Great work
is there a way to diable the graphics? (couldnt find it in either left/right modules)
the graphics on lower left corner of the screenshot.
In reply to JFisherGamerDEAF:
That is due to optifine, not this
