Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on the Locator Heads overlay?

Open the mod's config screen from the Mods list or the in-game config menu and make sure head rendering is enabled. Once enabled, nearby players will appear as head icons along your XP bar automatically.

Why aren't any heads showing up on my XP bar?

Check that head rendering is enabled in the config and that other players are actually within your render distance. If you're in singleplayer or no one is nearby, no heads will appear.

How do I make the head icons bigger or smaller?

In the mod's config, adjust the head size setting to scale the icons up or down. Larger sizes make distant players easier to spot, while smaller sizes keep the XP bar less cluttered.

How do I show player names next to the head icons?

Enable the name rendering option in the config. Once on, each head icon will display the corresponding player's name alongside it.
