Spatial GUI has many options, so it is worth looking through them to tailor the mod to your preferences.

Compatibility

Spatial GUI is a client-side mod and does not need to be installed on the server.

However, compatibility isn't guaranteed with every mod. Spatial GUI modifies GUI and camera rendering, which may conflict with mods that modify these as well.

If you find a reproducible incompatibility with another mod, please report it on GitHub so it can be investigated. Reporting an issue helps make the mod better for everyone!

Punchy has built-in compatibility with Spatial GUI in first-person mode! This can be toggled in Punchy's config.

FAQ

Question Answer
Does Spatial GUI work in multiplayer? Yes. Other players and the server do not need to have Spatial GUI installed.
Does Spatial GUI give a gameplay advantage? Spatial GUI is primarily visual and does not add or automate gameplay mechanics. Some settings can change how the camera behaves, so whether it is allowed on a particular server is up to that server's rules.
Is Spatial GUI compatible with _____? Probably! However, compatibility isn't guaranteed, especially with mods that modify GUIs, cameras, or rendering. If you encounter an issue with a specific mod, feel free to report it on GitHub.
Why is my GUI behaving strangely? Another installed mod may be incompatible. Try to identify the mod involved, then check existing GitHub issues or open a new issue with steps to reproduce the problem.
Can I use Spatial GUI in a modpack? Yes. Spatial GUI is welcome in modpacks and no additional permission is required. Compatibility with other mods is not guaranteed.
Is Spatial GUI purely visual? Almost entirely. Spatial GUI changes how existing screens and the camera are presented. One setting intentionally allows your rotation to persist after closing a GUI, which can turn your character's view.

Notes

  • Feel free to suggest features or report bugs on the GitHub.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Spatial GUI need to be installed on the Minecraft server?

No. Modrinth marks Spatial GUI as unsupported on the server side. Install it only in your local Minecraft mods folder. Your server can remain unchanged unless the mod page lists an additional dependency.

Which version and loader does Spatial GUI require?

Use a file for fabric, neoforge and your exact Minecraft version. Supported versions include 26.3, 26.2, 26.1.2. Files for different loaders are not interchangeable.

Spatial GUI is not working – what should I check?

First check the Minecraft version, loader version and required dependencies. Put the .jar file in your local .minecraft/mods folder and remove older duplicates. Because this mod is client-side, adding server RAM will not fix it.
