A lightweight, client-side mod that shows every creature’s (and optionally players’) health in a clean, game-style bar above the head.
The bar scales with distance, changes colour as HP drops, animates smoothly when damage is taken, and features a subtle dark background with a stone-frame border that fits the Vintage Story aesthetic.
| Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| Stylish pixel bar | Stone-frame border, dark backdrop, colour-shifting fill (green → yellow → red). |
| Distance-aware scaling | Bar and text shrink as you step back, keeping the HUD tidy. |
| Smooth damage animation | Fill slides to the new value instead of snapping. |
| Fade-in / fade-out | Appears only when you target the entity, then fades out. |
| Configurable everything | Colours, thresholds, size, fade speed, vertical offset… all in JSON. |
| Tiny footprint | Pure client mod. Safe to add or remove at any time. |
- Download HealthBar v1.0.1.zip from the Releases tab or the VS Mod DB.
- Drop the zip into your
Mods/folder (no need to unzip). - Start the game – the mod loads automatically and is client-side only.
Multiplayer: Works on any server; other players need the mod installed to see bars on their own screen.
