A client-side Fabric mod that forces nametags and player skins of invisible players to render at full opacity. All features are toggleable at runtime via the /invis command.
Built for Minecraft 1.20.4, 1.21.11, 26.1.2, and 26.2.
- Nametag visibility — Forces nametags to render above invisible players regardless of render distance or status effects.
- Full nametag opacity — Restores the nametag background and text to 100% opacity (bypasses the transparency applied by the invisibility effect).
- Skin visibility — Renders the player body/skin at full opacity instead of the ghostly semi-transparent effect.
- Sneaking fix — Corrects the sneaking pose for invisible players when the nametag is forced visible.
- Runtime toggling — All features can be enabled/disabled mid-game without restarting.

gradlew.bat buildThe first build will download Gradle, Minecraft assets, and all dependencies.
build/libs/invistags-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
Download and run the Fabric installer from fabricmc.net/use. Select your target Minecraft version and Client.
Download the matching Fabric API version from Modrinth or CurseForge.
Copy the built JAR to your Minecraft mods folder:
Linux / macOS:
cp build/libs/invistags-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar ~/.minecraft/mods/Windows:
copy build\libs\invistags-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar %appdata%\.minecraft\mods\Your mods folder should contain at minimum:
mods/
├── fabric-api-<version>.jar
└── invistags-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
Start the Fabric profile in the Minecraft launcher. Verify the mod loaded by checking the Mods menu — look for Invistags.
Use the /invis command in-game:
| Command | Effect |
|---|---|
/invis | Shows current toggle state of both features |
/invis skin true | Enables rendering of invisible players' skins at full opacity |
/invis skin false | Disables skin override (reverts to vanilla behavior) |
/invis nametag true | Enables rendering of invisible players' nametags |
/invis nametag false | Disables nametag override (reverts to vanilla behavior) |
Both features default to enabled on first launch.
The 26.x branches use a significantly different rendering API (unobfuscated Mojang mappings):
