About this Mod

About

This is an overlay mod that gives a small overlay with a mob/living entity name, type and it's minimized model.

General look of the mod once applied

The mod covers vanilla mobs and it's types are based on vanilla ranking too by which I mean that passive mobs are the ones that won't attack, neutral that upon getting provoked or meeting a condition and hostile mobs are the ones will attack you on sight.

Mod is inpired by the UI from S.T.A.L.K.E.R. game series that once crosshair is hovered over an NPC it provides NPC name, faction icon and faction name.

Notes

  • Currently this mod lacks customization and is not optimised.
  • I'm aware that current placement collides with chat and lack of background makes it unreadable in some cases.
  • The activation of this UI has a range limit and activates only on living entities that are up to 15 blocks away
