Health Indicator +
by Afkz Studios
Health Indicator + shows health, absorption and armor above the heads of entities in the world, as a client-side Fabric mod.
What it does
Health Indicator + draws a row of pixel-art hearts above entities, with empty containers for missing health and extra icons for absorption. Armor appears as icons above the hearts. A text mode replaces the hearts with raw numbers such as 14 / 20, and a percentage mode shows the share of maximum health instead. Each display can be sized, offset horizontally and vertically, set to a number of hearts per row, and recolored for normal, low and critical health and for maximum health.
Filtering decides which entities show an indicator: players, hostile mobs, passive mobs and armor stands can each be shown or hidden. A self toggle adds the player's own indicator above their head. Per-entity and per-player disable lists let a player switch off specific entities without changing the global settings. The mod is published for Fabric alone, and its files run across the seven game versions in the range 1.21.1 – 26.3. Only the client needs it, so servers and other players run without it. The code is released under the MIT License, but the project is not open source.
