by timeframes21

Directional Hit Vignette shows which side of the screen a hit came from, using a soft red pulse at the matching edge.

FabricClient-side onlyAll rights reserved1.21 – 26.2

What it does

When the player takes damage, a red vignette pulses on the top, bottom, left or right edge of the screen that matches the direction the attack or projectile came from. The effect is a client-side visual cue and changes nothing on the server, so only the player's client needs the mod. Works with multiplayer servers. Requires Fabric API and Cloth Config API. Mod Menu is optional and gives access to the settings screen in game. Available for Fabric for 26.2 under All rights reserved, with 16 release versions covering 1.21 – 26.2.

Key features

  1. Directional edge pulse

    Damage shows on the screen edge that corresponds to the exact direction of the attack or projectile.

  2. Adjustable thickness and opacity

    The thickness and opacity of the red vignette can be changed in the settings.

  3. No crosshairs or minimaps

    The feedback is a soft vignette rather than a crosshair indicator or mini-map overlay.
