Infectus scoreboard
Survival modpacks live and die by their tension, and few things raise the stakes like knowing exactly how long you have survived, how many threats you have put down, and whether that strange potion effect ticking away in your veins is about to end your run. The Infectus scoreboard is a lightweight add-on built for the Infectus modpack that puts all of that information on screen in a clean, readable panel. It is designed for players who want hard data without opening menus mid-fight.
Although it was created with the Infectus modpack in mind, the add-on works as a standalone HUD element and can be dropped into other modded setups with minimal fuss. It tracks kills, deaths, and the number of in-game days that have passed, giving you a running record of your survival story from the first sunrise to the final stand.
What the Infectus scoreboard tracks
The core of the add-on is a compact scoreboard that updates in real time. Every hostile mob you defeat increments your kill counter, every death is logged, and the day counter rolls over each time the sun rises. For modpack veterans, that trio of stats is the backbone of any challenge run, speedrun, or server leaderboard.
Where the add-on goes further is infection tracking. It monitors the infection potion effect from three separate mods: Infectious, Zombie Extreme, and Apocalypse Now. If you are running any of those mods, the scoreboard will display your current infection status so you always know when to chug a cure or retreat to safety.
- Kill counter for hostile mobs and players
- Death counter with persistent tracking
- Day counter for long-term survival records
- Infection status pulled from Infectious, Zombie Extreme, and Apocalypse Now
- Config option to disable infection tracking entirely
Customization and configuration
The scoreboard is described as slightly customizable, which is an honest way of saying it covers the essentials without drowning you in options. You can toggle the infection display on or off through the config file, which is ideal if you are not running any of the three supported infection mods or simply prefer a cleaner HUD. The config approach keeps the add-on lightweight and avoids unnecessary processing when a feature is not needed.
If you play with a foxygame.net launcher setup, grabbing the Infectus scoreboard is a one-click affair, since the launcher catalog already lists the add-on alongside its dependencies and keeps it updated automatically whenever a new build lands.
Supported Minecraft versions and loaders
Before you download Infectus scoreboard, check that your mod loader matches. The add-on is distributed for Forge, the loader most commonly used by large modpacks like Infectus, and it targets the Minecraft 1.16.5 and 1.18.2 branches where the supported infection mods are actively maintained. Running it on a mismatched loader version will simply prevent the mod from loading, so verify your setup first.
Compatibility notes
Because infection tracking depends on external mods, the scoreboard will only display infection data when at least one of Infectious, Zombie Extreme, or Apocalypse Now is present. Without them, the kill, death, and day counters still function normally. This makes the add-on safe to include in a broader mod list even if you later swap infection mods in or out.
How to install
Installation follows the standard Forge workflow and takes only a few minutes.
- Confirm you are running a supported Minecraft version with Forge installed.
- Place the Infectus scoreboard jar file into your mods folder.
- Launch the game once so the config file generates.
- Open the config and disable infection tracking if you are not using the supported mods.
- Restart the game and verify the scoreboard appears in the corner of your HUD.
If the scoreboard does not appear, double-check that the jar matches your loader version and that no other HUD mod is conflicting with the same screen space.
Why it belongs in your modpack
Infectus scoreboard for Minecraft solves a small but constant problem: keeping survival stats visible without breaking immersion. It is not a flashy overhaul, and it does not try to be. Instead, it delivers exactly the numbers that matter for infection-themed survival play, with just enough configuration to fit different mod lists. For players building around Infectious, Zombie Extreme, or Apocalypse Now, it is a natural companion piece that turns every session into a measurable challenge. Download it, tune the config to your taste, and let the counter tell the story of how long you lasted.
