About this project

What does Better Potions HUD add?

Better Potions HUD

Better Potions HUD restores clear, vanilla-style potion effect information on the in-game HUD.

It shows potion timers and amplifier levels directly on the top-right effect icons, while keeping the look and placement close to vanilla Minecraft.

Features

  • Shows effect duration directly on HUD icons
  • Shows amplifier levels on HUD icons
  • Keeps a vanilla-style font size, color, and position
  • Supports very high amplifiers instead of showing **
  • Option to display amplifiers as Roman numerals or normal numbers
  • Option to replace the vanilla ** amplifier display
  • Shows effects with hidden particles enabled

Ex: /effect give @s minecraft:strength infinite 255 true
Wouldn't show potion hud in top right normally because it has hidden particles set to true

  • Configurable amplifier and timer text colors
  • Reset buttons for default colors
  • Mod Menu and YACL config screen
  • Config saves after restarting the game
