Note: I am debating if to add a caldendar system to this as well. I added the time HUD mainly for myself since I need it for tracking specific challenges for datapacks etc.

If someone really wants me to add this, please reach out to me and I can add this in a future build. You can find my contact info on my Github.

Frequently Asked Questions

SimpleFPS 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 (26.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is SimpleFPS compatible with fabric?

SimpleFPS officially supports fabric for Minecraft 26.1, 1.21.11, 1.21.10. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with SimpleFPS – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if SimpleFPS 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.
