Overlay Hud
Overlay Hud
A small, client-side mod that shows useful info while you play survival. One key turns your overlay on and off, and you choose which modules it shows.
Modules
Light Overlay Marks block tops where monsters can spawn, so you can light up your base, farms and caves properly.
- 🟥 Red: monsters can spawn at any time.
- 🟨 Yellow: monsters can only spawn at night or during thunderstorms.
FPS Shows your frame rate in the top right corner. It moves below your potion effect icons and hides while the F3 screen is open.
More modules will follow.

Settings are saved in config/overlayhud.json.
Fair Play
Overlay Hud only shows information your game already has and that you could get with F3 or a bit of patience. No X-ray, no seeing mobs through walls, no automation. It's client-side only, so you can use it on any server without installing anything there.
Compatibility
Works with Sodium, Iris, Lithium and Distant Horizons. With an Iris shader pack active, Light Overlay markers show as colored outlines without the fill.
Requirements
- Fabric Loader
- Fabric API
