Bow Hitmarker | Arrow Hit & Kill Feedback

About

Know when your arrow hits a mob and when it lands the killing shot.

Bow Hitmarker adds a small pixel-art marker near the mob you hit. A white marker and a quiet click confirm damage; a red marker and a distinct chime confirm a direct arrow kill. The marker disappears after about 0.3 seconds, keeping combat clear.

Features

• White hit markers and red kill markers near the struck mob.
• A quiet hit sound and a distinct kill sound, heard only by the shooter.
• Works with bows and arrow-firing crossbows, including tipped arrows, Piercing and Multishot.
• Each mob struck by a volley receives its own marker; a kill sound takes priority when the same volley also lands other hits.
• Nearby players can see the markers in the world.
• Works automatically, with no commands, extra items or crafting recipes.
• Leaves screen titles and action-bar messages available for other add-ons.

How to use

1. Import the .mcaddon file into Minecraft Bedrock.
2. Activate both the Bow Hitmarker Behavior Pack and Resource Pack in your world.
3. Shoot a mob with a bow or an arrow-firing crossbow.
4. Look for a white marker on damage or a red marker on a direct arrow kill.

Notes

• Markers appear near mobs in the world, rather than on your crosshair.
• Only arrows fired by players trigger feedback. Hits on players, blocks and non-mob entities do not count.
• Blocked shots and impacts that deal no damage do not produce a marker.
• A later death from fire or a potion effect does not count as a direct arrow kill.
• Markers are cosmetic and do not change damage, mob health or loot.
• Custom mobs must belong to the mob type family to trigger feedback.
• Health Bars and Damage Numbers are separate, optional add-ons; neither is required.

Requirements

• Minecraft Bedrock Edition 1.26.50 or newer.
• Both included Bow Hitmarker packs must be active.
• No experimental toggles or external add-on dependencies required.
