🧭 LocatorBarExtended
LocatorBarExtended is a lightweight, client-side Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.21.11 that transforms the vanilla Locator Bar into a feature-rich, customizable navigation hub.
Instead of trying to remember who is assigned to which colored diamond, see actual player skin heads and clean nicknames directly on your compass bar!
🌟 Key Features
- 👤 Player Skin Avatars: Renders player heads directly on the bar with full support for 3D second layers (hats, crowns, glasses).
- 💬 Enhanced Bubble Badges: Nicknames float above icons in clean, stylish badges featuring a pointer arrow directed down to the player's head.
- 🧹 Clean Nicknames Mode: Tired of server prefixes and rank icons cluttering your screen (like
🐉or[VIP])? Toggle Clean Nicknames to display pure, raw Minecraft usernames. - ⭕ Pixel-Cut Rounding: Smooth out avatar corners to match your style — from 0% (sharp square) to 50% (pixel-cut bevel) and 100% (circular avatar).
- 🎨 Per-Player Customization:
- Customize individual highlight frame colors.
- Revert specific players to vanilla diamond icons with custom tint colors.
- Adjust custom nickname colors and scale per player.
- 🌐 Cascading Scopes (Global & Server): Settings are intelligently inherited. Change a nickname color on a specific server without losing your global player profiles!
- 🤖 Auto-Discovery: Encountered players are automatically recorded in the config, ready for quick tweaking in the GUI.
- ⚙️ In-Game GUI: Fully integrated with YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL v3) and Mod Menu — open anytime via
/ble guior Mod Menu. - 🌍 Bilingual Support: Complete out-of-the-box localization for English and Russian (

🛡️ Anti-Cheat & Fair Play
[!NOTE]
100% Client-Side & Fair-Play Safe!
LocatorBarExtended does NOT grant wallhack or radar cheats. It only repaints the data already sent by vanilla Minecraft:
- If the server disabled the locator bar (
/gamerule locator_bar false), the mod displays nothing.- Players hidden by vanilla mechanics (sneaking/crouching, invisibility effect, mob heads/carved pumpkins, spectator mode) will NOT appear on the bar.

О моде
LocatorBarExtended — клиентский мод для Minecraft 1.21.11, преображающий ванильную полосу локатора (Locator Bar).
Вместо безликих цветных ромбиков мод отображает на панели лица игроков со скином и никнеймы в стильных плашках со стрелочкой.
Ключевые фичи:
- Головы скинов: Рендер лиц игроков со вторым слоем (шляпы, очки).
- Режим «Чистые ники»: Автоматически вырезает серверные префиксы, эмодзи и ранги (вроде значков драконов
🐉), оставляя чистый ник игрока. - Плашки Bubble: Стильный полупрозрачный бейдж со стрелочкой к голове.
- Пиксельное закругление: Срез углов аватара от 0% (квадрат) до 100% (круг).
- Хайлайт и цвета: Возможность индивидуально обвести игрока цветной рамкой или покрасить его ванильную иконку.
- Каскадные скоупы: Настройки для конкретного сервера не сбивают глобальные параметры.
- Полная локализация: Меню и команды полностью переведены на русский язык.
- Честная игра: Мод не отображает игроков в приседе, под невидимостью или в тыквах.
