Using a Carved Pumpkin Helmet with the Updated Screen Overlay

Equipping the Smiling Pumpkin Helmet

Wearing a pumpkin on your head prevents Endermen from becoming hostile when you look at them, and Cute Pumpkin Resource Pack updates both the exterior mask and your first-person view. Open your inventory by pressing E and drag a Carved Pumpkin into your Helmet armor slot, or hold the Carved Pumpkin in your hotbar and right-click to equip it directly onto your head. While playing in first-person view, your screen will now display the new cute, happy face cutout instead of the spooky vanilla overlay.

Checking Your Mask and Clearing Your View

If you want to see how the cheerful pumpkin helmet looks on your character in biomes or villages, press F5 to switch into third-person view. Other players on multiplayer servers who also have the resource pack enabled will see the same friendly smiling mask on your head. When exploring dark areas with a pumpkin equipped, you can temporarily gain an unobstructed view without removing your helmet by pressing F1. This hides the entire heads-up display, including the pumpkin helmet screen overlay, while keeping your Enderman protection active until you press F1 again.
