Frequently asked questions
Do I need to do anything after installing Overlay Lib Mod?
No—Overlay Lib Mod works automatically in the background once installed. You won't see a menu or settings screen for it; instead, you'll notice that information mods (like light level overlays) now work properly without errors.
Why do I need Overlay Lib if I just want light level overlays?
Overlay Lib handles all the technical work of drawing overlays onto your blocks efficiently. Without it, overlay mods would have to do this work themselves, causing lag and compatibility problems; Overlay Lib centralizes this so multiple mods can share the same rendering system.
Can I use Overlay Lib with multiple information mods at once?
Yes—that's one of Overlay Lib's main purposes. It lets several mods draw their overlays simultaneously without conflicts or performance loss, as long as your system can handle the visual load.
My overlays are flickering or disappearing. What's wrong?
Check that Overlay Lib is actually installed alongside your information mod, and verify both are the correct version for your Minecraft version. If they're both present and up to date, try disabling other visual mods temporarily to see if there's a conflict.
