Overlay Stats (Original)

Overlay Stats

Overlay Stats is a client-side Fabric mod that lets you create your own customizable in-game HUD using editable overlay elements.
Show the information you care about while playing, such as coordinates, FPS, ping, world time, biome, health, equipment, target block/entity data, potion effects, and more.

The mod uses simple text-based elements with %variables, so you can mix normal text with live Minecraft data however you want.

Features

• Create multiple custom overlay elements
• Use live %variables inside your element text
• Render Minecraft item/block icons using $item_name
• Drag elements around the screen to reposition them
• Adjust X/Y position, anchor, and scale
• Customize text color, opacity, shadow, background color, and background opacity
• Enable or disable each element separately
• Use multiple presets and switch between them
• Includes a showcase preset with ready-made examples
• Searchable variable list
• Variable suggestions while editing
• Item icon suggestions when typing $
• Template-specific element options, such as hiding air blocks or missing targets
• Client-side only

Examples

You can create simple elements like:

Day %day

XYZ: %x %y %z

FPS: %fps | Ping: %ping_full

You can also combine text, variables, and icons:

$grass_block Looking at: %target_block

$clock Time: %time | Day: %day

$diamond_sword Target: %target_entity | HP: %target_health_full

$compass %direction | %biome | %dimension

Item Icons

Overlay Stats can render Minecraft item and block icons directly inside overlay text.

Use $ followed by an item or block ID:

$grass_block %block_coords

$diamond_pickaxe Durability: %main_hand_durability_percent%%

When editing an element, typing $ will show icon suggestions.

Variables

Overlay Stats includes many built-in variables for different parts of the game.

Some examples include:

%day
%time
%weather
%x
%y
%z
%coords
%biome
%direction
%fps
%ping
%ping_full
%health
%hunger
%armor
%xp_level
%main_hand
%off_hand
%effects
%target_block
%target_entity
%target_health
%target_effects
%server_ip

Open the Variables screen in-game to browse and search the full list.

Presets

The mod includes multiple preset slots, so you can create different HUD layouts for different situations.

For example:

• A clean survival layout
• A technical/debug layout
• A PvP-focused layout
• A server information layout
• A minimal coordinates-only layout

Only one preset is active at a time, making it easy to switch between setups.

Element Options

Each overlay element can be customized individually.

You can change:

• Text color
• Text opacity
• Shadow
• Background color
• Background opacity
• Position
• Anchor
• Scale
• Enabled state

Some variables also unlock extra options.
For example, %target_block can hide the element when you are looking at air, so your HUD stays clean instead of constantly showing Air.

How To Open

Press J in-game to open the Overlay Stats editor.

From there, you can add elements, edit existing ones, adjust position and scale, browse variables, and manage presets.

Client-Side

Overlay Stats is fully client-side.
It does not need to be installed on the server.

Perfect For

• Survival players who want useful HUD info
• Technical players who need coordinates, biome, light, FPS, and ping
• Content creators who want clean custom overlays
• Players who want a more personal HUD
• Server players who want quick access to ping, server IP, or location info
