ExHUD: Directors Cut
by bibireden
With ExHUD: Directors Cut, the status bars for health, armor, food, air and experience are redrawn in a more RPG-themed, minimalist style.
What it does
ExHUD: Directors Cut is a port of the standalone Fabric mod ExHUD, kept in line with the legacy releases of PlayerEx. It is a client-side mod, so only the player's own game needs it and servers run without it. Installation requires Fabric API and Fabric Language Kotlin, and the mod is published for Fabric and Quilt with a single build, 1.3.0+1.20.1, for 1.20.1.
Each bar has a set position on screen: health sits at the left and the utility bars at the right. When the player holds a food item, its food value appears as a percentage and blinks briefly after consumption, which makes it easier to judge the effect of eating. The food display works in a way similar to AppleSkin, which is an optional companion. Any part of the display can be switched off through the mod's config, so the overlay can be trimmed to the bars a player wants.
