BlueClient
Press Right Shift. It's still Minecraft.
Everything BlueClient adds sits on one page made of the game's own buttons — same grey slabs, same font, same place on the screen. You already know how to use it before you open it.
- Four sections — General, World, Combat, Visual — then Waypoints and Music, which get a page each.
- Type three letters in the search box and you're on the setting, wherever it was filed.
- HUD Layout, at the foot, drags every readout wherever you want it.
- Presets save the whole client under a name. Switch mid-game; the one you leave saves itself.
What it adds to your screen
A map and sixteen readouts, drawn the way the game draws things. Drag any of them anywhere. Turn off the ones you don't want.
Waypoints you can see through a mountain
Drop one on your base, your portal, the hole you left the diamonds in. It stands up through the terrain with its name and how far away it is, so getting home stops being a map problem.
- Sixteen colours, each named in its own colour.
- Link one to a block and it outlines that block when you walk up to it.
- Die, and one is planted where you fell before you can forget.
- Every one shows on the minimap too, held at the edge when it's off the map.
Play the song you actually want
Minecraft's soundtrack turns up when it feels like it, and never when you want it. BlueClient hands you the list instead — Sweden, Mice on Venus, Aria Math, all of them, by name — and plays the one you pick.
- Every song in the game, in one list you scroll. Clicking a row plays it, so choosing is listening.
- Its own volume, so turning the music up doesn't turn the game up with it.
- Shuffle if you'd rather not choose, and skip when you've heard enough.
- Switch it off and the game's own music comes straight back — nothing was written to your settings.
A launcher that stays out of your way
Sign in with the Microsoft account that already owns the game, pick a profile, press Play. No second account, no launcher behind the launcher.
- Every profile keeps its own version, memory and mods.
- Nothing leaks between them — a modded world can't break the one you play on servers.
- Sodium, Lithium, FerriteCore, Entity Culling, ImmediatelyFast, Krypton, Dynamic FPS and Iris come set up.
- Run more than one game at once, on different accounts.
Next to the others
Six things people ask before they install a client. Every answer comes from that client's own website, read on 4 September 2026.
| BlueClient | Lunar Client | Dawn | FastClient | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| What it costs | Free. There is no paid tier. | Free, plus a paid Lunar+ subscription and a radio subscription at $4.99 a month. | Free, with cosmetics and points sold inside the launcher. | Its site says "completely free… no subscriptions". Its terms of service describe premium features and paid cosmetics. |
| The in-game menu | Minecraft's own buttons, on Right Shift. | A panel in Lunar's own style, on Right Shift. | A full-screen panel in Dawn's own style. | None described anywhere. Mods are managed in the launcher. |
| Choose the music | Yes — the game's own songs, by name. | No. Lunar FM is radio stations, and they are chosen in the launcher. | No. Its Music module controls an outside music app. | Nothing about music anywhere on the site. |
| Ads in the client | None. | The free tier of its radio is ad-supported; paying removes the ads. | Its terms reserve the right to show ads in the launcher, and to limit it for anyone blocking them. | Nothing documented either way. |
| Anything to buy | Nothing. There is no store. | Cloaks, wings, pets and emotes, with a Store button on the in-game title screen. | Cosmetics and points, in the launcher. | Free skins and capes on the site; paid cosmetics in the terms. |
| Minecraft versions | 1.20.5 to 1.21.8 — eleven of them. | 1.7 through to the current 26.2. | Not published on the site. | 1.20.x and 1.21.x. |
Lunar Client is lunarclient.com, Dawn is dawn.gg, FastClient is fastclient.net. If any of this has changed since, tell us and it changes here.
And the rest
- Zoom
- Hold a key and the view narrows. Looking around slows down with it, so tracking something far off stays steady.
- Freelook
- Swing the camera around yourself without turning your body, then drop back to first person. It stands down by itself on Hypixel, whose rules don't allow it.
- Your own keys
- Zoom, freelook and the waypoint marker each have a key of their own, set on their page. Press the button, press the key.
- Toggle sprint and sneak
- Sprint stays on while you move forward, and sneak is a tap rather than a hold.
- Fog and brightness
- A slider each for world, water, lava and powder snow, from what the game draws down to none. Fullbright too.
- Lower fire
- Burning no longer fills the screen. Drop the flames as far as you like and see it as you move the slider.
- Shulker preview
- Hover a shulker box anywhere and its contents open under it as the grid they are, not five lines of grey text.
- Ping as a number
- The millisecond count in the player list, green through red, instead of five bars that look the same under 150 ms.
- Motion blur
- A short trail behind movement, as strong as you set it. The world only — every readout stays sharp.
- Time and weather
- Keep it day, sunset or night whatever the server's clock says, and switch the rain off. Only what you see changes.
- Servers from the pause menu
- The server list opens over the running game. You stay where you are until you actually pick another.
- Presets
- Save the whole client under a name — every switch, every option, and where each readout sits. Switch between them mid-game; the one you leave saves itself.
- Nothing a server calls cheating
- No extra reach, no automation, no seeing players through blocks. Everything it adds is on your screen and nowhere else.

Download
Press the button above and open the file it gives you. If Windows says it protected your PC, click More info, then Run anyway — that warning shows for any new publisher.

Press Play
Pick a profile and press Play. You don't need the official launcher, and nothing else to install.
Questions
Do I need to own Minecraft?
Yes. BlueClient signs in through Microsoft and runs the Java Edition on your account. It's a launcher and a set of additions, not the game.
Will it get me banned?
It does nothing a server counts as cheating. Servers set their own rules, so check yours if you're unsure — but nothing here touches anyone else's game.
Which versions work?
Every release from 1.20.5 to 1.21.8 — eleven of them — carries the menu, the HUD, the waypoints and the music. The launcher installs and runs any other version too; those just start plain. 1.20.1 and 1.21.9 and newer are being worked on.
What does it cost?
Nothing. No paid tier, no cosmetics to buy, no account to make with us.
Can I add my own mods?
Yes. Add Fabric mods from inside the launcher, or drop the jars into a profile yourself.
Does it work on Mac or Linux?
Not yet. Windows 10 and 11 for now.
