Auto HUD is a Minecraft mod for the Fabric launcher which hides parts of the user interface (HUD) that are currently not interesting.

It is inspired by similar mods ("immersive hud") for other games. I personally really like the clean view of no visible HUD, but get frustrated by the limitations of using F1 mode.

This is an opinionated rewrite of Head-down Display that never got updated.

• Toggle the whole HUD with a key binding.
• Have parts of the HUD that haven't changed hide away.
• Hide persistent, unchanging status effects, such as water breathing from the turtle helmet.
• Show remaining time of status effects.
• Highly configurable.

• Player hand / equipped items remain visible
• Player names remain visible
• The vignette remains active
• Incoming chat messages still pop up
• Crosshair remains visible (see my other mod Dynamic Crosshair for that)
• Configurable what elements are hidden

All HUD elements are hidden except for the currently active status effect:

Possible look with shaders installed:

This mod has been written for Fabric for Minecraft 1.18.2.

Get packaged versions from Modrinth or Curseforge!

• requires Fabric API
• requires ClothConfig
• not required: Mod Menu for ingame configuration screen

This mod includes a modified version of magicus' Status Effect Timers, because I could not figure out how to dynamically insert my modifications into it. Since this mod allows for status effect icons to be hidden individually, the non-modified version will draw the timers in the wrong place.

Known to be compatible:

• Dynamic Crosshair augments this mod by allowing to hide/change the crosshair based on context.
• Raised works perfectly.
• HUDTweaks mostly works. Vertical status effects bar does not work with the timer overlay. Animation direction and offset may have to be tweaked in AutoHud's settings manually.
• AppleSkin appears to work fine.
• DetailArmorBar is supported.
• BerdinskiyBears Armor Hud is supported in "hotbar" configuration
• Dehydration is supported (hydration bar follows hunger bar settings).
• OneBar is supported.
• Inventory Profiles Next' lock symbol is supported (but not in "fade" setting).
• Micro Durability is supported (but does not get dynamically shown)

Known to be incompatible:

• OptiFabric crashes due to mixin conflicts.
• Any other mod that draws status effect timers should have that functionality disabled.
• HUD elements created by other mods will most likely not be moved.
• Bedrockify overwrites the status effect modifications. To get them working, disable the screenSafeArea mixin.
• "Fade" mode is more likely to cause issues with any mods that alter the GUI.
