DayTime Counter

A lightweight, vanilla-style day and clock counter for the HUD. Uses the overworld clock time, so it always matches the visible day/night cycle — no drift, no guessing, no syncing issues in multiplayer.

The whole thing is built to blend into vanilla's own UI: the progress bar reuses Minecraft's XP bar sprites, the HUD icon shows the actual time of day (dawn, day, sunset, dusk, night), and the counter is placed exactly where a HUD element should live — including automatically staying out of the way of a boss bar.

## 🌐 Official website coming soon

We are preparing the official website for our mods, where you will be able to discover upcoming projects, report issues through the ticket system, and suggest ideas or new features. The link will be added to the mod descriptions as soon as the website is available.

The website will not host mod downloads directly: all mods will remain connected to Modrinth and will continue to be downloaded exclusively from this platform.

## 🆕 What's new in 1. 4. 1

• A full photo journal: F2 screenshots are automatically captured into the World Journal as titled/described photo cards, scrapbook-style
• Survival streak tracking and world birthday milestones (100/365/500/1000 days)
• Daily weather tracking (rain/thunder) shown in the journal
• Automatic journal backups on every world join
• A contextual HUD entry for the current Nether visit or Hardcore survival streak — with the whole HUD block adapting while in the Nether (red progress bar, Netherrack icon, glitched clock) since day/night doesn't apply there
• A day-change pulse animation on the HUD counter
• Quick Journal: a dedicated key to jot down a note without leaving gameplay
• A redesigned four-tab settings screen, with a new tab to rebind this mod's keys directly
• World Journal entries now stay translated: automatic entries (advancements, deaths, raids, trades, milestones) always show up in whatever language the game is currently set to, including ones logged in an earlier session under a different language — even in a journal that already existed before this update
• A matching round of new public API for developers (survival streak, Nether visit duration, photos, weather — see (#for-developers) below)

## ✨ Features

• Current world day counter, with a brief pulse animation the moment the day advances (toggleable)
• 24-hour or 12-hour clock format
• Day progress bar drawn with vanilla XP bar sprites, with an optional day/night color tint — turns solid red instead while you're in the Nether, since there's no day/night cycle to track there
• Dawn/day/sunset/dusk/night HUD icon that follows the actual in-game time — replaced with a Netherrack icon in the Nether
• Compass direction shown in the HUD label while holding a compass
• Contextual HUD: shows how long you've been on your current Nether visit — in seconds for the first minute, then in minutes — with the clock itself rendering as an animated glitch effect there, since a time-of-day reading is meaningless in the Nether; or your current survival streak in a Hardcore world — only one shown at a time
• Vanilla-style toast reminder when it's getting late enough to sleep
• Small milestone sound on notable days (50, 100, 365...) — turn it off, or pick which sound plays, from the settings screen
• 9 HUD position presets (top/middle/bottom × left/center/right), with automatic shrink-and-shift when a boss bar (dragon, wither, raid, or a server's own custom one) would otherwise overlap it
• Quick Journal: a dedicated key opens a small popup to jot a note down without leaving gameplay or opening the full World Journal book
• Built-in Mod Menu settings screen, split into four tabs (HUD, Info & Alerts, World Journal, Keybinds) — no config file editing needed, and this mod's two keys can be rebound right from the Keybinds tab
• Fully client-side — safe to use on any server, vanilla or modded

## 📖 World Journal

Open the World Journal from the pause menu:

• Rename each dimension's era (Overworld/Nether/End) to whatever fits your playthrough
• Automatic milestones, logged for you: first Nether visit, first End visit, the Ender Dragon defeated, and world birthdays at 100/365/500/1000 days — if you'd already reached one before installing the mod, it's estimated retroactively instead of being skipped
• Every death, not just the first — the very first one
