One color picker.Five looks. Your whole client.

Meteor's ClickGUI in Hontun's HModern2 look: category windows with chamfered corners and blue accent outlines over a dark particle background.

What it is

Hontun gives Meteor Client and Minecraft's menus one consistent look, then adds what Meteor does not ship with: crash protection, deeper server recon and a few handy commands.

Every screen, one theme

The ClickGUI, title screen, server list, accounts, proxies, containers, buttons and sliders all follow the same look and the same accent color.

ui-mode · palette-color

Crash packets get dropped

Anti Exploit cancels incoming packets that would crash or freeze your client: impossible positions, oversized NBT, chat bombs and packet floods.

See what a server runs

.server reads the brand, software, real backend version, plugins, channels and hidden players. Software detection is passive and sends nothing.

Themes

Five looks. One setting.

Pick a ui-mode in the GUI tab and the whole client changes with it. Set palette-color and every accent, gradient and highlight follows it live, with no restart. Try it below on the game screens, recreated in the browser.

ClickGUI windows in the default dark look The same ClickGUI windows with light-mode on DarkLight

Light mode, ClickGUI only

Tick light-mode and only the ClickGUI goes light. Menus, chat, containers and the HUD stay dark, and text contrast stays readable on its own.

Mix and match

click-gui follows ui-mode by default, but you can pair any two, for example HModern2 menus with the SmogClient ClickGUI. Window positions are shared, so nothing moves.

Fine tuning

Scale, corner radius, window and background opacity, animation easing, snapping grid, category and tab icons, and a tree view for dependent settings.

Interface

Menus that feel like one app.

The server list, title screen and connect screen get new layouts, and so do the account, proxy and version screens.

HModern2 multiplayer screen: each server is a card with its icon, one MOTD line, country flag, player count and ping

Server list as cards

In HModern2 and SmogClient each server gets a card with its icon, one MOTD line, and a column for the country flag, player count and ping. Drag a server to reorder the list.

HModern2 title screen with the glowing Hontun badge above the menu buttons

Title screen badge

The Hontun badge replaces the Minecraft wordmark, tinted by your palette with a soft glow, and the splash text is hidden. SmogClient shows its own logo; Vanilla keeps the original.

Hontun connect screen while joining play.example.net: Connect 85 ms, Login 213 ms, Join in progress, World pending

Connect screen

Every join phase with its own timer, visible from the first frame. A stalled join shows exactly where it stalled.

HModern2 account manager with a 3D player model, account search and offline, Microsoft, Altening and session login

Accounts

A 3D model of the active account, search, and offline, Microsoft, The Altening or session-token login in one themed window.

HModern2 protocol version picker with a pixel icon for every Minecraft version

Versions ViaFabricPlus

Pick a protocol version from the multiplayer screen, with per-version icons and per-server overrides in Edit and Direct Connection.

HModern2 proxy manager with the add form and two proxy entries showing status and latency

Proxies

The full add form, live status and latency, in the same theme as everything else.

Drag to reorder

Grab a server or a resource pack and drop it where you want it.

Country flags

Looked up in the background after a server finishes pinging. Off with server-country-flags.

Search with Ctrl + F

Inside the ClickGUI, find any module or setting by name.

Containers and widgets

Inventories, chests, buttons, text fields, sliders, scrollbars and the hotbar follow the theme.

Lag Notifier

Meteor's HUD element, themed, showing seconds and milliseconds since the server last answered.

Menu background

An animated gradient with accent particles replaces the panorama behind the menus. SmogClient has its own.

Modules and commands

Tools that come with it.

Five modules in their own Hontun category, plus commands that use Meteor's prefix. Settings on the module cards are the defaults.

Modules

Left click toggles, right click opens settings.

Anti Exploit

Cancels incoming packets that would crash or freeze your client, with an optional per-type debug log of exactly what was blocked.

players3s..5s100t
.reconnect

Rejoins the current server, optionally under another offline name. Alias .rejoin.

<name>
.toggletab

Keeps the player list open so you do not have to hold the key.

.server info

Resolved IP, brand, software, real backend version, protocol, data packs, permission level, render and simulation distance, the pushed resource pack and more.

.server

Hontun adds three subcommands to Meteor's server command and upgrades plugins and info.

  • channelsPlugin channels captured so far.
  • pluginsScans the server's plugins and falls back to bypass when nothing shows up.
  • playersFinds the real online roster and flags players hidden from the tab list.
  • softwareGuesses the server software and any proxy in front, without sending anything. Behind server-side ViaVersion it reads the real backend version.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Is Hontun free?

Yes. Hontun is free and open source under GPL-3.0. Download it from GitHub Releases.

Which Minecraft version does it support?

Hontun always follows the newest Minecraft version that Meteor Client runs on. Right now that is Minecraft 26.2 on Fabric, with Meteor's 26.2 build, Fabric API and Java 25 or newer.

Do I need ViaFabricPlus?

No. It only enables the protocol-version picker. Without it the picker is hidden and everything else works the same.

How do I change the look?

Open the ClickGUI (Right Shift by default) and go to the GUI tab. ui-mode changes the whole client, click-gui changes only the ClickGUI, palette-color sets the accent and light-mode makes the ClickGUI light.

Does it send data anywhere?

Only the country-flag lookup, which is on by default and sends server addresses to ipwho.is. Turn it off with server-country-flags.

Free and open source.
Ready for 26.2.
