About this Mod

BedWars Level Head

BedWars Level Head is a lightweight, simplified fork of the classic Levelhead mod, rebuilt specifically to display a player's BedWars Star above their nametag on Hypixel.

All extra features from the original mod have been removed to keep this version lightweight.

Features

  • Automatic Display: Shows BedWars stars above player heads in lobbies and pre-game waiting areas.
  • Smart Caching: Caches player stats to prevent spamming the API and reduce rate limits.
  • Proxy Backend: Uses a custom proxy backend to handle requests, meaning you do not need your own Hypixel API key to get started.
  • Nick Detection: Identifies if a player is "nicked" via the proxy service.
  • Customization: Change header text, colors (including Chroma/Rainbow), and display offsets.

Note: By default, this mod connects to a proxy server (beeny.hackclub.app) to fetch stats. You do not need to request a Hypixel API key unless you choose to disable the proxy.

Commands

General

  • /levelhead
    Shows the current configuration status (Enabled/Disabled, Offset, Header).
  • /levelhead gui
    Opens a simple GUI button to toggle the mod on or off.
  • /levelhead toggle
    Quickly enables or disables the level display.
  • /levelhead whois <player>
    Manually look up the BedWars stats, star, and nick status of a specific player or UUID.
  • /levelhead status
    Displays technical diagnostics, such as cache size, rate limit status, and proxy connection health.

Customization

  • /levelhead display header text <text>
    Change the text label above the star (Default: "BedWars Star").
  • /levelhead display header color <color>
    Change the color of the header text (supports hex codes, RGB, or Minecraft color names).
  • /levelhead display header chroma <on|off>
    Toggles the rainbow (chroma) effect for the header text.
  • /levelhead display offset <value>
    Adjusts how high the text floats above the player's head.
  • /levelhead display showself <on|off>
    Toggle whether you see your own stats above your head.

API & Proxy Management

  • /levelhead apikey <key>
    Manually set your own Hypixel API key. Only required if you disable the proxy.
  • /levelhead apikey clear
    Removes your stored personal API key.
  • /levelhead proxy <on|off>
    Enables or disables the usage of the backend proxy. If disabled, you must provide your own API key.

Configuration

For advanced users, configuration files are located in your .minecraft/config/ folder:

  1. bedwars-level-head.cfg: Contains general settings like your API key, proxy URL, and cache TTL.
  2. levelhead.json: Stores display-specific settings (colors, offsets, headers).

Note: It is highly recommended to use the in-game /levelhead display commands to modify visuals rather than editing the JSON manually.
