Durability Alert

by Azz_9

Durability Alert warns a player with a sound or a chat message when a piece of gear drops below a chosen durability threshold.

FabricNeoForgeClient-side onlyMIT LicenseOpen source26.1 – 26.3

What it does

Players set a durability percentage, and when an item falls under it, the mod can play a sound, post a message, or do both. A minimum delay between alerts keeps repeated warnings from stacking, and the alert sound itself can be replaced in the settings. Alerts only fire outside Creative and Spectator modes.

Armor checks are optional, and an Elytra-only check can be turned on to watch just the glider. A whitelist or blacklist decides which specific items are monitored. The mod is client-side only, so a server does not need it and players can use it on any server without installing it there. Files are published for Fabric and NeoForge, for five game versions 26.1 – 26.3, under the MIT License, and the code is open source. Cloth Config API and Mod Menu are optional dependencies that add configuration screens.

Key features

  1. Durability threshold alerts

    A chosen durability percentage triggers the warning when a tool or piece of gear falls below it.

  2. Sound and message alerts

    Alerts can use a sound, a chat message, or both, depending on the player's preference.

  3. Custom alert sound

    The sound played for a warning can be swapped for another one in the configuration.

  4. Alert delay control

    A configurable minimum delay between alerts stops repeated warnings from flooding the screen.

  5. Armor and Elytra checks

    Armor durability can be watched, and an option limits the check to the Elytra glider alone.

  6. Item whitelist and blacklist

    Specific items can be included or excluded from the durability checks.

How it compares

Full comparison

DurabilityInfo is open source under the MIT License, client-side only, and published for Forge as well as Fabric and NeoForge, across 26.1 – 26.2. Tools Durability Warning covers Quilt in addition to Fabric and NeoForge, for 1.21 – 26.2, but it is closed source under All rights reserved. Emerald tools and more is a client and server mod for 26.1 – 26.3 and is not open source, so it has to be installed on both sides, unlike Durability Alert.

Files are published for Fabric and NeoForge. The latest file for both is 1.2-26.2 for 26.3, dated 2026-09-15, on the beta channel.

Are Cloth Config API and Mod Menu required?
