Better HUD is a mod which currently adds in 28 new elements to the HUD while in-game. Each can be enabled or disabled, and most can be moved or customised. Any bugs reported are kindly appreciated. If you have a crash, it's a good idea to include a crash report in [ spoiler ] tags to report it.

Compass: Shown at the top of your screen, the compass shows you which direction you're facing. Modes: Simple, Fancy, Fancier.
Coordinates: Shows your coordinates at the top of the screen (above the compass). Modes: Spaced or Together. Spaced coordinates have a space between each coordinate, together are all linked.
Enchantment Indicator: Shows you when you can enchant (above your XP bar). Displays as an enchanted book.
Equipped Info: Shows what armour and tool you're holding, and displays the damage of each item. Modes: Tool, Armor or Both.

Heal Indicator: Shows when the player will heal naturally by displaying a green plus by the health bar.

Sign Reader: Displays the text of a sign when looking at it from far away. This enables the player to read signs up to 200 blocks away, even if they're blocked by entities. Modes: Text left, Visual Left, Text Right, Visual Right. Text mode adds text to the left or the right containing the text on the sign, and visual mode shows an actual sign on the GUI with text.
Block Viewer: Displays the currently looked-at block in a box. Note that this element does not always translate block names properly, sadly. Modes: Top Left, Top Middle, Top Right, Bottom Left, Bottom Right, Center (by the crosshair).
Arrow Count: Displays a counter of arrows the player has in their inventory to shoot while holding a bow. Modes: Left or Right of the hotbar.

Full Inventory Indicator: Displays text on either side of the screen when your inventory has no empty slots remaining.
Water Drops: Displays water droplets that trickle down the screen whenever it's raining, or you've just jumped out of water.
Item Pickup: Shows text and item icons of items you've just picked up on the screen. It counts how many items you've picked up, but if you don't pick up any for a while, it'll fade away and reset the counter.
The default key to open the HUD configuration menu is U. This can be changed in the controls settings, under "Miscellaneous". Each can be turned on or off and modified.
For equipped info; can you change it so it doesn't show the name and be more minimalist like the Armor Status Mod. I don't like so much on my screen. Other than that, I'm switching to your mod!

Thanks dude! That's a good idea, I'll add it whenever I can.

Just a suggestion: maybe add a feature that indicates what liquid you're looking at (especially with mods like T-construct and various others that have their own liquids). But yea, this mod looks amazing!

Looks like a very promising HUD mod.
The block names of certain blocks are not formatted correctly(tile.blockname.name). From my usage: Dirt, Coloured hardened clay, slabs, extended piston head, repeater, comparator, sand, red sand, cobble wall, mossy cobble wall, sapings.
Will also be great if elements would auto align based on what else is enabled to not have random empty spaces(e.g. Potion display/fps aligning to top if equipped info is not enable, heal indicator aligning closer to hotbar if food and health stats it disabled)
More configuration options for
Potion display such as:
-Disable effect level
-Having a bar similar to the armour, but smaller below each icon
-Location next to hotbar
Equipped info, maybe split the hand and armour into saperate modules:
Armour:
-Disable armour name
-Disable durability text
-Smaller bar for durability(below icon)
Hand:
-Disable item icon
-Disable text(Just the durability bar)
Cordinates:
-Rounded cordinates(No decimal points)
Seeing as this is the first version, this mod looks like it will turn out very well.
ps That is the nicest compass I have seen in a HUD mod!
Thanks for the feedback!
Firstly, I really have no idea why some block names simply aren't localised, it's very unusual. While testing in 1.8, I found that all block names are localised properly without me changing any of the code...
I'm not sure what you men by your second point, as the system should already automatically align things based on what other elements are enabled. Not having equipped info enabled should move all other elements on the left side up to the top, for example.
I really like your ideas for new settings, I'll be happy to add them when I can.

Thanks! I've been working pretty hard on it.
Thanks!

Open the menu with U (or whatever key you may have it rebound to) and disable Hide Players.
Thank you!
Thank you! I've used that mod before, really loved it. Awesome to have my own mod compared to it!
This is simply amazing, can't wait to use it on 1.8!
