What is the sidebar?

The Sidebar is the panel that appears on the right side of your screen in the server. It’s used to display real-time player information like platform, faction name, and total player count. For example:

$platform shows whether you’re on PC, mobile, or console.

$facname displays the name of the faction you belong to.

$members shows the total number of players who have joined your server.

$money displays the total money you have in real time.

$rank displays the current rank you have

Those $placeholders represents the scores of each one. The $placeholders only work for the sidebar, you cant use it on leaderboards. It wil display in zero

How can I enable it?

To begin using it, you first need to enable the Sidebar module.

Here's how:

Step 1. Open the Admin Menu and go to: Vex Configuration > Vex Setup > Modules Setup.

Step 2. Find the Sidebar option and enable it.

Step 3, Scroll down and click Submit.

Once activated, the sidebar will now appear on your screen!

This is how it looks like in-game

As you can see, it shows the servers name and then it shows the date of the server creation, down are the cps and tps and then is separated by animated bars. You can modify the order, placeholders, the bars animation and of course the server name that in this case is "Vex Kit-PvP". in Sidebar Setup. There you will find all the available $placeholders you can use.

Fun Fact: You can even modify the sidebars design for a custom unique style! Scroll down for seeing how, including sample packs.

How can I add a custom design for my sidebar?

This a simple guide that will help you create your custom sidebars. At the end, I’ll leave a sample pack to make the process even easier!

Step 1: Download the sample pack you’ll find at the end of this guide.

Step 2: Change the extension from .mcaddon to .zip and then unzip, this would leave it as a folder so you can open it.

Step 3: Inside the file, go to the textures/ui folder and look for the file named "hud_mob_tip_screen". Here you have two options: either edit the file directly, or if you already have a design, rename your file to "hud_mob_tip_screen" and replace the one from the pack with yours.

Step 4: The sample pack also includes the option to place your server logo above the sidebar. To do this, locate the file "logo.png" inside the folder and replace it with your own design, keeping the same name.

Step 5: Open the "manifest.json" file and replace the default UUIDs with new ones. This step is necessary for the changes to take effect, otherwise the add-on won’t work. To generate new UUIDs, go to https://www.uuidgenerator.net/, copy the uuids, and paste them in place of the default ones.

Step 6: Once you are done save the changes,and compress the folder to .zip and rename the extension back from .zip to .mcpack. If installing gives you an error with .mcpack, you can try putting .mcaddon

And that’s it! Now your sidebar will have a unique design along with your server’s logo for a more professional look :3
