UTIL HUD (Coordinates, Fullbright, Fps, time, Last Death location)
Keeping track of where you are, how well your game is running, and where you last died can make or break a survival session. The UTIL HUD (Coordinates, Fullbright, Fps, time, Last Death location) add-on solves all of that in a single, lightweight overlay. Instead of juggling multiple mods, you get one clean interface that puts the information you actually need right on your screen.
This is a Fabric mod, and it targets modern Minecraft releases through the Fabric loader version 0.16.7 or newer. If you are running a recent Fabric setup, this add-on slots in without drama and stays out of your way until you need it.
What Does This HUD Mod Actually Show?
The name tells most of the story, but the details matter. Every element is toggleable, so you decide what clutters your screen and what stays hidden. The core features include:
- Live coordinates for X, Y, and Z, so you always know your position
- A fullbright option that brightens dark caves and night exploration
- An FPS counter to monitor performance in real time
- A clock showing the current in-game or system time
- A log of your 10 last death locations, viewable inside the GUI
The last death tracker is the standout feature. Instead of scribbling coordinates on a notepad, you open the interface and see exactly where each death happened. Just remember that if you died in a different world, the mod will still show those coordinates, so keep that in mind before you sprint off in the wrong direction.
Controls and Quick Start Guide
Learning the hotkeys takes about thirty seconds. Here is the full rundown:
- Press B to open the graphical user interface
- Press G to copy your current coordinates to the clipboard
- Press L to toggle fullbright on or off
- Use the Toggle HUD button inside the GUI to switch the overlay on
Once the HUD is active, enable only the elements you want to see, then fine-tune their positions on screen. The X and Y values shown in the GUI represent the current placement of each HUD element, so you can drag things around until the layout feels right.
Finding Your Death Locations File
If you want to review your death history outside the game, the GUI includes a button labeled Show death locations. It copies the path to your death-coordinates-util-hud.txt file. Paste that path into File Explorer, or press Windows key plus R, paste it into the Run box, and hit Enter. The file opens with your recorded coordinates ready to read.
How to Install the UTIL HUD Add-On
Installation follows the standard Fabric workflow. First, confirm that Fabric loader 0.16.7 or newer is present on your Minecraft profile. Next, place the mod file into your mods folder, which you can reach through your Minecraft directory. Launch the game, and the HUD should be ready to configure with the B key.
If you would rather skip manual file handling, the foxygame.net launcher offers a smoother route. Its built-in catalog lets you add UTIL HUD (Coordinates, Fullbright, Fps, time, Last Death location) with a single click, and it keeps the mod updated automatically whenever a new build lands, so version compatibility is handled for you.
One heads-up worth repeating: if you delete or rename the util-hud-config.json file, all your settings reset. You will need to walk through the quick guide again to restore your toggles and HUD positions.
Why Players Keep This Mod Installed
Survival mode rewards preparation, and this add-on removes a lot of the busywork. Coordinates help you navigate back to base, fullbright saves torches, the FPS counter warns you when performance dips, and the death log turns a frustrating loss into a quick recovery trip. It is a small mod that quietly improves nearly every session.
