Hypixel Old Symbols
by NYC1809
Hypixel Old Symbols swaps the newer custom symbol characters on Hypixel Skyblock back to their older ASCII-style forms, on the client only.
What it does
Hypixel Skyblock has introduced custom characters for skill and stat icons. Some add-ons and HUD mods still detect the older symbols in the action bar, so custom health and mana bars can stop working correctly. Hypixel Old Symbols reverts the newer characters to the older ones, so those tools read them again. The replacement text can be changed in a config file.
Installation is needed only on the client, since the mod acts on text the player sees and does not change anything on the server. It is built for Fabric, with files for 1.21.11, 26.1.2 and 26.2, and the latest file is 1.3.0 for 26.2. The code is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only.

What the author says
Client side Hypixel skyblock mod for reverting the newer custom skill characters back to the older ASCII-style symbols. For example, the mod SkyblockTweaks currently still relies on the old skill symbols in the action bar to detect the different values. As a result, custom health and mana bars don't work correctly…
