QuickGlance

A sleek, minimalist HUD mod that lets you preview container contents in real time just by looking at them — no GUI opening required.

Mod hud

✨ Features

  • 👁️ Instant Inspection: Glance at any container to instantly see what's inside without opening it.
  • 🌊 Fluid Animations: Smooth cubic ease-out fade-in and fade-out transitions.
  • 🛡️ Anti-Flicker (Grace Period): A smart delay prevents the HUD from flashing or jittering when your crosshair quickly sweeps past blocks.
  • 📦 Adaptive Container Layouts:
    • Furnaces, Blast Furnaces & Smokers: Dedicated slots for fuel, input, and cooking results.
    • Campfires & Soul Campfires: Compact 2×2 grid showing all 4 cooking items.
    • Chests, Hoppers, Dispensers, Brewing Stands & More: Auto-scaling rows and wrapped grids for any inventory size.
  • 🌐 Multiplayer & Server Friendly: Works seamlessly in singleplayer and uses ultra-lightweight packets when installed on servers.
  • 🧩 Datapack Extensible: Easily add support or custom layouts for modded containers using simple JSON tags without writing code!

⚙️ Configuration

Customize the HUD to fit your screen and playstyle!

You can configure options in-game using:

  • Fabric / Quilt: via Mod Menu
  • NeoForge: via the built-in Mods config menu
  • Or by editing config/quickglance.json directly.
Setting Default Description
Animation Duration (animDurationMs) 150 ms Controls how fast the HUD fades in and out.
Grace Period (gracePeriodMs) 100 ms Delay before hiding the HUD after looking away (prevents annoying flickering).
Offset X / Offset Y (offsetX, offsetY) 14 / 22 Adjusts HUD position relative to your crosshair for the perfect fit.

🔌 Compatibility & Installation

  • Supported Loaders: Fabric, Quilt, and NeoForge.
  • Dependencies: Requires Fabric API on Fabric/Quilt.
  • Multiplayer: Install on both client and server for full synchronization.
📖 Adding Modded Containers (Datapacks)

QuickGlance is fully datapack-driven. You can tag any modded container block entity to support QuickGlance layouts:

  • #quickglance:furnace_like — 3-slot furnace layout.
  • #quickglance:campfire_like — 2×2 campfire layout.
  • #quickglance:row_like — dynamic item row / grid.
