XRay Mod gives you X-ray vision in Minecraft so you can find ores, caves, and dungeons without digging blindly. It hides common blocks like dirt and stone, leaving only the valuable stuff visible. The mod also includes fullbright, a cave finder, configurable coordinates display, and survival fly mode. Everything you need to strip mine like a pro.
Features
XRay Mode
Press X (default) to toggle X-ray vision. Open the mod menu with J to pick which blocks you want to see. You can hide dirt, stone, and gravel so only ores and valuables show up. Create custom XRay profiles with different block selections, then bind each one to a key if you want quick switching.
Cavefinder
Toggle cavefinder with C (default). Works like XRay but shows caves and air pockets instead. Unlike XRay, it doesn’t turn on fullbright automatically, so you can spot torches and light sources inside caves before you break through.
Fullbright
Press L (default) to light up the world. This fullbright implementation is cleaner than just cranking gamma to max. Works even underwater without the weird visual glitches you get from gamma settings.
Coordinates Display
Customize what shows on your HUD. Display your XYZ coordinates, biome, current block light level, which direction you’re facing, nearby entities, in-game time, and more. Configure it from the mod menu with variables like {X}, {Y}, {Z}, {Biome}, {Compass}, and others.
Survival Fly
Set a keybinding for fly mode (no default binding). Press once for double-jump flight, press twice for instant flight. It’s like creative mode flight but for survival. Useful for getting around quickly without messing with your world.
How to Install
For Forge:
- Install Minecraft Forge for your version
- Download the XRay mod file below
- Place it in your .minecraft/mods folder
- Launch Minecraft with the Forge profile
For Fabric:
- Install Fabric Loader
- Download XRay (Fabric version if available)
- Add it to your .minecraft/mods folder

With Optifine: XRay works fine with Optifine. Install Optifine first, then add the XRay mod to your mods folder.
Configuration Guide
Changing Visible Blocks: Open the mod menu (default key J) and check or uncheck blocks to show or hide them. The mod auto-detects new blocks from other mods as you use XRay.

- {X}, {Y}, {Z} – Your coordinates
- {X1}, {Y1}, {Z1} – Coordinates with 1 decimal place
- {X2}, {Y2}, {Z2} – Coordinates with 2 decimals
- {ChunkX}, {ChunkY}, {ChunkZ} – Your chunk location
- {ChunkPosX}, {ChunkPosY}, {ChunkPosZ} – Position within the chunk
- {FPS} – Frames per second

- {BlockLight}, {SkyLight} – Light levels
- {LookingAt} – Coordinates of the block you’re looking at
