Days Counter is a lightweight utility mod that adds an in-game day counter to the HUD. No need to open F3 anymore – simply track how many days have passed in your world at a glance.
How to use: Keys: H — toggle HUD on/off. J — toggle style (normal with the bar or transparent). Arrow keys — move the HUD (only works outside of chat).
Commands: /dayscolor — change the "Day" text color (for example, FF0000 for red). /sethud — set HUD position (for example, /sethud 0 0 for the top-left corner).
/daymessages on/off.
All settings are saved after exiting.
