Configuring Display Styles and Custom Fonts
The Damage Indicator Addon runs entirely as a resource pack, allowing you to use it in worlds without disabling achievements. You can customize how health bars look above entities and change the typography used for numbers.
Choosing a Health Display Style
1. Open your world settings or global resource pack settings and select the activated Damage Indicator pack.
2. Open the pack's configuration menu (often represented by a gear or slider icon called subpacks) to switch between the 3 available display options:
- Health Bar: Displays a color-changing bar above the entity.
- Heart Icon: Displays a heart icon alongside a numeric health readout.
- Combination: Displays both the Heart Icon and the Health Bar together.
3. Confirm your choice before loading into your world.
Applying Custom Fonts
If you also have the optional Minecraft Font or Minecraft Dungeons Font packs imported, you must order them properly for the text to change:
1. Go to your Active resource packs list.
2. Activate the optional font pack Alongside the main Damage Indicator pack.
3. Move the font pack so that it sits directly on top of the Damage Indicator pack in the load order.
4. Ensure any required toggles within the pack settings are turned on, then launch your world.
