LT-Hearts
by LordTricker
LT-Hearts draws heart bars above other players' heads, with optional damage animations that show how a PvP fight is going.
What it does
Health is shown as hearts over each player's head, in a clean aligned layout that supports full and half hearts and compact rendering for higher heart counts. Players can see the state of an opponent at a glance during a fight. Damage can be shown with animated indicators that fade out, and critical hits get their own marker.
The display can be tuned through a simple settings screen or client commands. Heart rendering can be switched on or off, damage animations can be enabled or disabled, and a maximum render distance and an extra vertical offset for the hearts can be set. Changes are saved automatically to a JSON configuration file.
The mod runs on the client alone, so only players need to install it and servers can stay vanilla on their side. A server owner may also enable an optional server promotion feature. Files are published for Fabric only, for Minecraft 1.21 – 1.21.10, and LT-Hearts is released under the MIT License but is not open source.
Key features
Heart bars above players
Each visible player shows a heart bar above the head, so health is readable without opening any menu.
Damage animations
Optional animated indicators fade out after damage, and critical hit markers stand out from ordinary hits.
Render distance and offset
A maximum render distance limits how far away hearts are drawn, and a vertical offset moves them higher or lower.
Settings screen and commands
Options are changed through a GUI or client commands, and every change is written to a JSON file without manual steps.
Compatibility

Use cases
PvP fights
Players can check an opponent's remaining hearts during a duel and see how much damage each hit has dealt.
Who it’s for: Players who want health visible over other players, especially in PvP, and players who prefer adjusting that display through a settings screen rather than editing files.
