Pixels Simple Hud Resource Pack FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

What does the Pixels Simple Hud Resource Pack actually change?
It replaces the on-screen HUD icons for your health hearts, hunger bar, and armor points with a cleaner, custom style. It only touches those HUD textures, not blocks, items, or the world itself.
How do I turn on the Pixels Simple Hud pack after installing it?
Open Options, go to Resource Packs, and move Pixels Simple Hud from the left column to the right column. Make sure it sits above any other pack that also edits HUD textures, then confirm.
Why are my hearts, hunger, and armor still the vanilla ones?
Another resource pack is likely overriding the HUD textures, or the pack is sitting below it in the load order. Move Pixels Simple Hud to the top of your selected packs and reload.
Do I need any mods or loaders to use this pack?
No, it is a resource pack, so it works on its own in vanilla Minecraft. You only need a loader if you are combining it with other mods.
How do I see the custom Hardcore hearts?
The Hardcore heart textures only appear when you are playing a world set to Hardcore mode. In a normal survival world you will see the regular custom hearts instead.
Can I use Pixels Simple Hud with shaders or other resource packs?
Yes, it works alongside shaders and most other packs since it only edits HUD textures. Just keep it above any pack that also changes hearts, hunger, or armor icons.
Will this pack hurt my FPS or performance?
No, it only swaps a few small HUD textures, so the performance impact is negligible. Any lag you see is coming from something else.
Does Pixels Simple Hud work on a server or in multiplayer?
Yes, resource packs are client-side, so you can use it on any server you join. Other players will not see your HUD changes, only you will.
Why do my armor icons look empty or missing?
Armor icons only show above the hotbar when you are actually wearing armor. If you have no armor equipped, there is nothing for the pack to display.
Can I change or remove just one part, like only the hunger bar?
Not through the pack itself, since it applies all its HUD textures together. To keep only some parts, you would need to edit the pack files or use a different pack that targets just that element.
