About this Mod

Container Peek

Container Peek is a client-side Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.20.4 that allows you to see what's inside a container without opening it, by caching its contents when you first peek inside.

Features

Persistent Caching: Remembers container contents after you open them once.
Holographic Overlay: Renders a sleek, customizable preview panel directly in the world above or near the container.
Wide Support: Works with Chests, Barrels, Shulker Boxes, Hoppers, Furnaces, Brewing Stands, and Dispensers.
High Customization:
- Themes: Choose from various styles (e.g., Neon Cyan).
- Visuals: Adjust panel scale, icon size, opacity, and offsets.
- Animations: Configurable fade-in and fade-out effects.
- Metadata: Optional timestamps showing when the cache was last updated.
Client-Side Only: No server-side installation required.

Configuration

Access the configuration via the containerpeek.json file in your config folder. You can tweak everything from the scale of the preview to the opacity of the background.

Frequently Asked Questions

Container Peek server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.6). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Container Peek compatible with fabric?

Container Peek officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.20.6, 1.20.5, 1.20.4. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Container Peek – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Container Peek consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
