Prettier Hitboxes
by TheEnderCore
With Prettier Hitboxes, players can switch on and tune the hitbox outlines drawn around entities in the game.
What it does
The mod draws the collision boxes of mobs, players and other entities on screen, with options to show or hide each kind of box. A toggle for hitboxes is on by default, and a separate option displays a large hitbox around the Ender Dragon. Players can also turn on the entity bounding box, an eye level indicator and a direction indicator, and can recolor the hitbox of the entity currently targeted by the crosshair while it is within reach. Item drops and item frames can be given their own hitbox toggles, so a player can remove the outlines on those objects.
The mod is described by its author as a fork of Pretty Hitboxes, updated for the latest version of the game and built on the Fzzy Config library. It needs Fabric API and Fzzy Config to run. Files are published for Fabric and Quilt, for 1.21.1 and the 1.21.7 – 1.21.10 builds, and the code is open source under the MIT License. Only the client needs it, so servers run without it and players can join without installing anything.
Key features
Hitbox toggles
Hitboxes can be switched on or off by default, with a separate toggle for the bounding box of each entity.
Ender Dragon hitbox
An optional large hitbox is drawn around the Ender Dragon, which is otherwise hard to see against the sky.
Direction and eye level markers
Indicators show where an entity is facing and the height of its eye level, drawn alongside the hitbox outline.
Targeted entity color
The hitbox of the entity under the crosshair, within reach, can be recolored so it stands out from the others.
Item drops and item frames
Hitboxes for item drops and item frames can be turned off separately, which removes outlines from those objects.
