Armor Hud

by SaolGhra

Players who want armor condition on screen during play can use this client-side overlay, which shows each worn piece with color-coded durability bars.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltClient-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source1.20 – 26.3

What it does

The overlay lists every armor piece with its icon and places a durability bar beside it. Bar colors follow the remaining durability: green above 75%, yellow between 25% and 75%, red below 25%, and black once the item has lost durability. The display is meant to help players judge armor condition without opening the inventory.

Only the player's client needs the mod, so servers run without it. It requires Fabric API, and Mod Menu is optional for opening its settings from the mod list. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 24 game versions, and the code is released under the MIT License as open source.

Key features

  1. Visible armor display

    Each worn armor piece appears on the HUD with a clear icon.

  2. Color-coded durability bars

    Bars change color as durability falls, from green through yellow and red to black.

  3. Lost durability marker

    A black bar shows that a piece has lost durability, so worn gear stands out at a glance.

  4. Thresholds by percentage

    Green, yellow and red regions split at 75% and 25% of total durability.
