CrittPvP
by Crittcat
CrittPvP is a Fabric client mod that changes how items, armor, hitboxes and the HUD appear during combat, with many options sorted under a few feature groups.
What it does
Installed on Fabric alone, the client mod groups its options into item and armor changes, player appearance and HUD changes. ItemSwitch swaps item textures without a resource pack, and SwingFix makes swords use the animations of ordinary items. DropSettings renders dropped items as flat 2D sprites. Hitbox colors can be limited to the nearest player, and NoEly hides a worn elytra. Other entries cover full brightness, color saturation, low fire, a TNT timer and a set of counters for FPS, CPS, milliseconds, reach and combo. Several features borrow ideas from other mods, and the author notes that some options may be considered unfair in competitive play.
The client runs alone, so servers need nothing installed and players join without the mod being present on the server side. Files are published for Fabric only, across three game versions: 1.20.1, 1.21 and 1.21.4. The 1.21.4 build covers the newest of the three, and the 1.0.0 file for 1.20.1, dated 2026-09-26, is the latest release. The code is under the MIT License, but the project is not open source.
