Better HP
Better HP is a client-side mod for Minecraft that fundamentally improves the display of health, armor, and hunger stats in the game. Instead of traditional hearts and armor icons, you get a modern numerical system that allows you to accurately track all important character parameters.
Key Features
Precise Health Display - Your health is shown as specific numbers rather than approximate hearts. You'll always know the exact amount of damage taken and remaining health.
Numerical Armor Values - No more guessing about protection level! Better HP displays the exact armor value right on the screen, giving you complete understanding of your defense.
Absorption Effects - Additional protection from effects like Golden Apples is displayed next to main health for quick assessment.
Numerical Hunger Indicator - Track satiety level using precise numbers, making character nutrition management easier.
Dynamic Effect Colors - Visualization of status effects through text color changes:
- Wither effect - dark purple color
- Freezing effect - icy turquoise shade
- Poison effect - sickly green color
Flexible Positioning Settings - Customize the placement of all numerical indicators for perfect combination with other interface elements.
Configuration File - Easily enable, disable, and customize any mod features according to your preferences.
How It Works
Better HP integrates into the standard Minecraft interface, replacing regular health, armor, and hunger bars with numerical values. The mod intercepts the rendering process and provides accurate digital readings of all main character parameters.
