Description

Dynamic Crosshair is a Minecraft mod for the Fabric & (Neo)Forge launchers. It hides or changes the crosshair dependent on context.

NOTE: With version 8, the mod has been substantially rewritten. Configs should be migrated automatically, but please double-check whether any of your settings have been lost if updating from an older version!

Features

Hide the crosshair when not looking at anything.
Hide or show it depending on what is being looked at.
Hide or show it depending on the currently equipped item.
Change the crosshair style for various situations.
Highly configurable.

Dependencies

This mod has been written for Minecraft >= 1.18.2.

Fabric version

requires Fabric API
from version 6 upwards, there is an optional dependency on YetAnotherConfigLib for an ingame configuration screen
versions up to 5.5 require ClothConfig
not required: Mod Menu for ingame configuration screen

(Neo)Forge version

from version 6 upwards, there is an optional dependency on YetAnotherConfigLib for an ingame configuration screen
versions up to 5.5 require ClothConfig

Mod Compatibility

This mod is very strongly coupled to vanilla Minecraft and has to hardcode a lot of interaction rules. Thus, playing on a non-vanilla world will make the advanced features (context-dependent style) unreliable.

If you play with content mods, I recommend also installing Dynamic Crosshair Compat.

If you like dynamic UI elements, also check out my other mod Auto HUD that extends dynamic behaviour to most of the HUD.

DynamicCrosshair is currently not compatible with Exordium (set its enabledGui setting to false to use its other features) and can have issues with Immediately Fast.
