Description

What is Wayfarer? Waypoint demo.

Available on Fabric     Available on Neoforge       Only on Modrinth

Wayfarer implements a waypoint rendering system and aims to improve the locator bar, all in a way that can be utilized by other developers in their projects!

Client-side, the mod handles waypoint rendering in-world and on the locator bar. There are many customization options to tweak waypoint visuals.

Server-side, the mod handles server-to-client waypoint data and synchronization to tell the client what to render. Not all projects need this, client-side mods can just utilize the waypoint renderer directly!

I'm not a developer.

That's alright; Wayfarer is still useful on its own! Its standalone features include:

Improved Locator Bar

  • Wayfarer adds a hold keybind to manually toggle the locator bar.
  • In survival, locator bar icons render over the experience bar instead of replacing it with the locator bar, so you can still see your experience!
  • Head icons are shown for players on the locator bar.
  • Instead of icons getting smaller as they get far away, they become more translucent.
