Visible Effect
by ZhuYiiSama
Visible Effect changes how potion effect icons are shown above an entity's head, and it lets an in-game configuration decide which effects appear.
What it does
Potion effect icons over a mob or player are arranged more clearly, so the effects on an entity are easier to read at a glance. The display can be adjusted in game, and effects that carry long translated names can be left out automatically so they do not crowd the list. Visible Effect is a Forge mod for Minecraft 1.18.2 – 1.20.1, and it runs on client and server. Installing it on the client alone does not change what the server sends, and the server side must also run it for the behaviour to apply in multiplayer. The source code is public under the MIT License.
Key features
Clearer effect icons
Potion icons above an entity's head are laid out more readably than the default arrangement.
In-game configuration
Players and server owners can change which potion effect icons are displayed without editing files by hand.
Automatic exclusion of long names
Effects whose translated names are long are filtered out of the display, keeping the icons tidy in other languages.

How it compares
EpicFight_Improve is also a Forge mod for 1.18.2 – 1.20.1 that runs on client and server and is open source under the MIT License, but it is a separate mod with its own purpose. Photon & EpicFight is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 with the same client and server environment, and it is released under All rights reserved, so its code is not open source.
