Armor Hud by Mcjunky33
by Mcjunky33
Armor Hud is a Fabric client mod that shows the worn armor and its durability on screen, so each piece's state can be read without opening the inventory.
What it does
The HUD sits on screen while playing and lists each armor piece with its remaining durability. Every element can be repositioned and resized through the settings, so the display can be arranged around the layout of the game screen.
The mod requires Fabric API on Fabric. It is open source under the MIT License, and its source code is public. Files are published for 1.21 – 26.3 across 13 release versions, with 0.9 for 26.3 as the latest Fabric file, released 2026-10-04. Only the client needs it, since the display is drawn on the player's own screen.
Key features
Armor durability readout
Each equipped armor piece is shown with its current durability, so wear can be checked during play.
Adjustable HUD layout
Position, size and spacing of the armor display can be changed to fit the player's preferred screen layout.
Inventory-free monitoring
Armor status stays visible in the game view, so the inventory screen does not need to be opened to check it.
