What the mod does
Armor Hud adds a visual overlay to your Minecraft screen. It displays distinct icons for each piece of armor you wear. Alongside those icons, the mod shows durability bars that track item condition as you play.
You don't have to pause and open your inventory screen in the middle of a battle to see if your chestplate is intact. The overlay keeps the numbers and condition visible directly in your main view. It's simple. It stays out of your way until you need the information.
Durability stages and colors
The durability bars use four specific color codes to show the state of your equipment.
Green indicates high durability, which applies when an armor piece has more than 75 percent durability remaining.
Yellow indicates moderate durability. But this appears when your gear sits in the range between 25 percent and 75 percent.
Red marks low durability when condition drops below 25 percent.
Black shows lost durability.
These distinct visual stages let you spot damaged equipment quickly. You see your gear change from green to yellow, and then to red when it takes heavy hits. That visual warning gives you time to swap items or back off before a piece breaks completely.
Platform support and requirements
Armor Hud runs entirely on your local game client. It's listed as required on the client side and unsupported on the server side. Look, you don't need to install it on dedicated servers.
The mod supports Fabric, Quilt, and Neoforge loaders. Supported game releases include Minecraft versions 26.3, 1.20, 1.20.1, 1.20.2, 1.20.3, 1.20.4, and 1.20.6. When you install it on Fabric, you put the mod file along with the Fabric API into your game mods folder, then start Minecraft using your Fabric profile.
