About this Mod

Description

Inspired by the iconic halos from Blue Archive.

Some of the BA halos displayed in the gallery must be obtained here.

Halo adds configurable floating halos above entity heads. Each halo is defined by a JSON file and can stack multiple textured layers with independent position, rotation, scale, and glowing settings. A flexible animation system drives per-layer motion via sine, cosine, and linear terms on any axis, from subtle idle bobbing to staggered clock-ring rotation.

Usage

  • Use /halo show <entity selector> <halo definition> to show halo above target entity
  • Use /halo hide <entity selector> to hide its halo
  • Use /halo list to list halo loaded
  • Other command are used for debug

Frequently Asked Questions

Halo server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.1). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Halo compatible with fabric?

Halo officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.20.1. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Halo – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Halo consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
