📖 About:
Mob Plaques adds very tiny displays above a mob's name tag to show it's current health. Armor points, armor toughness points and air supply are also shown when relevant. The mod has a bunch of config options to customize the plaques as you wish.

💡 FAQ:
Q: Can plaques show more mob attributes like food/potion effects/etc.?
A: No, unfortunately not. Most information about such things is never sent to clients, and is therefore not accessible.
Q: How do I configure this mod?
A: Mods can have three different kinds of configs depending on the kind of settings they provide: Client, Common, and Server.
Client and Common configs are found in /.minecraft/config/, named as <modId>-client.toml and <modId>-common.toml, respectively.
Server configs though are applied per world, therefore you'll find those in /.minecraft/saves/<world>/serverconfig/<modId>-server.toml for local singeplayer worlds, and in /<world>/serverconfig/<modId>-server.toml for you Minecraft server. Changes made to a server config only apply to that one world. Setting default values in server configs for all newly created worlds is possible by copying the modified server config to /.minecraft/defaultconfigs/.
In a local singleplayer world you can quickly find config files by running the /config showfile <modid> command and by choosing CLIENT, COMMON or SERVER. Then click the file name (ending with .toml) that appears in chat to open the file in a text editor. After saving the file, the config will automatically reload in-game after a couple of seconds, so no game restart required.
On some mod loaders editing configs is also supported in-game via the Mods menu option. On some Minecraft versions you can also install my Config Menus for Forge mod for editing configs directly in-game.

so, i made a mod review if anyone wants to hear my two cents on the mod and see it in action. on that note, this video is a youtube short i made by crowbaring a 16:9 video into a 1:1 video. anyways, i hope you enjoy the video!
Seem to be getting a weird bug where the hearts are just brown squares. Any idea why this is happening?
In reply to Rockit14:
Little update - seems to happen if you use shaders
This looks awesome, any chance to have it ported in 1.18.2?
Please a Forge 43.1.1 compatible version. ):
I think you should include information about minimum required forge version
Suggestion: #Show plaques for the entity picked by the - area around the - crosshair only.
To make it easier to 'read' moving entities.. For example, an area of like 10 pixels around the crosshair...
In reply to elienaijf17:
There‘s a config option for that, but only when the entity is close
It is recommended that you add the HUD function only after centering. I saw this function in smartcursorMOD on 1.12.2. It's really good, but it's a pity

That's very cool mod, reminds me a bit of wynncraft and that's why I have to ask, do you plan to add config to make those health indicators look bit more RPG like, you know health bars, I think it would look amazing but the current look still gives some RPG vibes.
In reply to driplock:
I think there are plenty other mods that render cool rpg styled health bars
I'm not sure though if there's any that render above the mob like mob plaques, they mostly just add a something to your hud...
do you have a screenshot of the wynncraft bars/anything rpg like you thought of?
In reply to Fuzs_:
That is true there are health bars mods the biggest problem I'm facing with them is that they look weird or add too much information, Neat is ok but it's not what I'm looking for, mostly because of the way it looks like, I was even looking for texture pack but there is non, Torohealth Damage Indicators have perfect looking health bars, simple yet you get what it is, the problem here is that it adds little health display thing in the corner which I don't really like, then there's this thing which is like neat but not exactly and lastly wynnctaft displays health like this which is proof of simplicity like Toro's mod (tho Toro's is way better) which looks good and fits RPG vibe tho adds info that is somewhat confusing, so as you can see we have quantity but not really quality, they all share similar problem, they look out of the place (except Toro's one), hope you see my point now.
Nice, this is a very nice alternative to NEAT
Amazing mod, simple and effective. Thank you for the work
