by legitcarstar

On Fabric for 1.21.11, Pearls-Plus places a hovering label over every Ender Pearl that names the player who launched it.

What it does

Pearls-Plus changes how thrown Ender Pearls are displayed. A nametag floats above each pearl and shows the name of the player who launched it, which helps identify who threw a pearl during combat or in a stasis chamber on a multiplayer server. The thrower's name is cached the first time it is resolved, so the nametag stays on the pearl if its owner briefly drops out or relogs, and it does not vanish while the pearl is still tracked.

The mod runs on the client only, so servers do not need it and players join without installing it. It is released under the MIT License, is open source, and requires Fabric API and Mod Menu. Files are published for 1.21.11 only, with 1.0.0 as the latest Fabric file, released 2026-08-15.

Key features

  1. Thrower nametags

    A hovering label sits over each Ender Pearl and shows the name of the player who threw it.

  2. Cached owner names

    The thrower's name is stored once resolved, so the label survives a short disconnect of its owner.

  3. Config screen

    Mod Menu opens a settings screen where players can toggle the nametag on or off.

  4. Scale and distance options

    Nametag Scale sets how large the label renders, and Max Distance sets how far away it stays visible.
