Understanding the Pack's Dual Function

False Hardcore Heart Resource Pack works in both directions. In normal survival mode, it displays hardcore-style hearts. In actual hardcore mode, it shows survival-style hearts. This lets you customize which aesthetic you prefer, regardless of your game mode.

Changing Your Heart Display

The pack automatically applies its changes based on your current game mode:

  • In Survival Mode: Your health bar will render with the hardcore heart texture, giving you the visual style of hardcore mode without the permadeath mechanic.
  • In Hardcore Mode: Your health bar will render with standard survival hearts instead of the typical hardcore appearance.

Toggling the Pack On and Off

If you want to revert to default hearts:

1. Open your resource packs folder

2. Move False Hardcore Heart to the inactive packs list

3. Reload your resource packs

4. Return to your world

To reactivate, move it back to active packs and reload. The changes apply immediately without requiring a world restart.
