ZFD Utilities Changelog

1.0.20+mc26.2

This release targets Minecraft 26.2 only.

Settings profile polish

• Settings Profiles now starts collapsed every time, matching the other advanced dropdown sections.
• Removed the long always-visible profile explanation from the settings page.
• Added a hover description for Default, Gameplay, Recording, Vanilla, and every custom profile so each loadout explains what it offers without taking up permanent screen space.
• Replaced the always-visible profile name field with a Save current loadout button.
• The save button first applies the settings currently shown on screen, then opens a focused profile-name dialog.
• Custom profile saves have no profile-count limit and become active immediately after saving.
• Added a five-second safety cooldown between named profile saves, including /zfdutils profile save <name>.
• Added the same named-profile save flow to the vanilla fallback settings screen.

1.0.19+mc26.2

This release targets Minecraft 26.2 only.

Fixes and profiles

• Fixed the self nametag renderer by supplying the same entity attachment position and interpolated yaw that vanilla uses for normal player nametags.
• Added a permanent Vanilla profile that disables ZFD gameplay, HUD, camera, ping, folder, visual override, and diagnostic features while keeping settings entrypoints available.
• Added a Save current settings as profile name field directly below the active profile selector. Type a name, edit settings, and press Done to save and activate that profile.
• Existing upgrades preserve their current configuration as Default. Clean installations use ZFD's product defaults instead of inheriting a developer or another player's settings.
• Clean-install Default keeps the Simple HUD in the top-left, Z zoom, and Left Alt freelook, while self/world nametags and client-side overrides begin disabled.

1.0.18+mc26.2

This release targets Minecraft 26.2 only.

Highlights

• Added an optional self nametag for third-person and ZFD freelook views.
• Self nametags use the player's vanilla/server display component so team colours, prefixes, suffixes, and rank formatting remain intact.
• ZFD's numeric world ping also appears on the self nametag when both ping features are enabled.
• Fixed world-ping colour leaking into the entire player name. Ping and vanilla/server name styling are now separate components.
• Added complete settings profiles with built-in Default, Gameplay, and Recording profiles.
• Added a Settings Profiles selector under Gameplay & Screens.
• Added an unbound Cycle Settings Profile keybind for instant profile switching.
• Added an unbound Toggle Self Nametag keybind.
• Added /zfdutils profile list, cycle, switch <name>, save <name>, and delete <name> commands for custom profiles.
• Added automatic profile persistence with backup recovery in config/zfdutilities-profiles.json.

Recording profile

The initial Recording profile starts from the user's current settings, then hides HUD/ping/performance overlays, disables Entity Hider, enables clear-weather visuals, and keeps the rest available for customization.

Notes

• ZFD Utilities remains fully client-side.
• Mod Menu and Cloth Config are recommended for the full settings panel but are not required.
• Existing zfdutilities.json settings are migrated into the initial Default and Gameplay profiles on first launch.

1.0.17+mc26.2

This release targets Minecraft 26.2 only.

Menu integration fixes

• Added separate settings for showing the ZFD Utilities icon on the main title screen and the in-game pause menu.
• Kept title-screen and pause-menu icon rows centered when either ZFD icon is hidden.
• Made both menu injections fail safely when an unusual or modded screen layout cannot be adapted.
• Added both icon visibility toggles to the Cloth Config panel and the vanilla fallback settings screen.

1.0.16+mc26.2

Initial public release of ZFD's Utilities for Minecraft 26.2.

Highlights

• Customizable Simple HUD with coordinates, FPS, ping, health, and equipment readouts.
• Colored ping display, ping category summaries, and /pingcounts diagnostics.
• Entity Hider with allowlists and optional radius mode.
• Smooth zoom, scroll zoom options, and hold-to-use perspective freelook.
• Client-side visual time and clear weather overrides for cleaner recordings and screenshots.
• Keep-crouch, creative fly speed, and first-person shield height customization.
• Optional singleplayer and multiplayer play-screen folders.
• Frametime graph, frame-spike logging, mouse-stutter diagnostics, and PC-spec logging.
• Assignable keybind slots for major toggle-style utilities.
• Clean first-release defaults intended for player customization.

Notes

• Client-side Fabric mod.
• Fabric API is required.
• Mod Menu and Cloth Config are recommended for the best configuration experience.
• Visual time, clear weather, and entity hiding only affect the local client.
