ArmorHUD

What it does ArmorHUD adds a small overlay that sits just above your hotbar. It shows every armor piece you're wearing plus the item in your main hand. Each slot displays the item icon and its current durability so you can see at a glance when something is about to break. The mod doesn't change any gameplay mechanics; it only surfaces information that's already in the game but normally hidden behind an inventory screen. ## Who it's for Players who spend long sessions mining, fighting, or building and want to keep track of gear wear without pausing to open their inventory. It's especially handy on older PvP or survival servers where 1.8.9 and 1.12.2 are still the standard versions. Because the mod is purely visual, it doesn't give any competitive advantage beyond convenience. ## Compatibility and requirements The mod runs on Minecraft Forge only. Supported game versions are exactly 1.8.9 and 1.12.2 - no other versions are listed by the project. It is a client-side mod, meaning you install it in your own game and it works on any server that allows client mods. The server doesn't need the mod installed and won't see it. The license is LGPL v3.0 only. ## What you won't find There are no configuration menus, no extra HUD elements for off-hand items, and no support for Fabric, NeoForge, or newer Minecraft releases. The project description and repository both describe the same feature set: armor and held item above the hotbar, two Forge versions, nothing else.
