About this project

What does Entity Overlay add?

Entity Overlay

See exactly when an entity is within your reach.

Entity Overlay is a lightweight, client-side Fabric mod that gives you clear visual feedback about entities around you, making positioning and combat awareness easier.

✨ Features

  • 🎯 Reach Overlay — Clearly see when an entity is within your reach.
  • 🖌️ Customizable Outline — Change the outline color and appearance to your preference.
  • 🟦 Customizable Fill — Enable/disable the fill and choose its color and opacity.
  • 👁️ Visibility Options — Customize when and how the overlay is displayed.
  • ⚙️ Flexible Configuration — Fine-tune the overlay to fit your playstyle.
  • ⚡ Lightweight — Designed to provide useful visual feedback without unnecessary overhead.
  • 🖥️ Client-Side — No server-side installation required.

🎮 Why Entity Overlay?

Minecraft doesn't always provide clear visual feedback about an entity's position relative to your reach.

Entity Overlay makes this information immediately visible without changing Minecraft's combat mechanics.

🛠️ Compatibility

Loader: Fabric
Side: Client-side
