Description
❤️ Animated Half Heart
In vanilla Minecraft, losing half a heart leaves a static half-heart icon at the end of the health bar
Animated Hearts replaces it with a full heart that smoothly fades in and out, making the remaining health easier to notice without changing the original HUD style
Before
After
✨ Regeneration Effect
Vanilla regeneration makes individual hearts jump while health is being restored
Animated Hearts adds a smooth wave that travels across the entire health bar during regeneration
The wave follows the position of each heart and stays aligned even when hearts jump during the vanilla healing animation
The effect also works with multiple rows of health
Before
After
☠️ Poison Effect
When the player is poisoned, small animated bubbles appear around the poisoned hearts, making the effect more noticeable while keeping the vanilla heart style
The bubbles work with blinking hearts, half-hearts, and multiple rows of health
🔥 Burning Hearts
When the player is on fire, animated flames appear directly around the hearts
The flames follow the health bar and make fire damage feel more noticeable while keeping the icons clearly visible
The effect works with different heart types, armor and multiple rows of health
🎨 Other Visual Effects
The mod also includes several additional HUD animations and improvements
- Animated water effect while underwater
- Animated heart pulse at low health
- Shine effect across absorption hearts
- Silver shine when wearing a full armor set
- Animated wave across the experience bar
- Support for multiple rows of health
- Support for vanilla and modded status effects
⚙️ Configuration
Animated Hearts includes an in-game configuration screen where most visual effects can be enabled, disabled and customized separately
Available settings include:
- Animation speed
- Animation smoothness
- Animation FPS
- Effect transparency
- Health thresholds
- Individual settings for different visual effects
Configuration Menu
🖼️ Resource Pack Support
Animated Hearts uses Minecraft HUD textures instead of replacing them with custom heart textures
This allows the animations to automatically match most resource packs that change the vanilla heart icons
Animated Hearts is a client-side visual mod and does not change health, damage or other gameplay mechanics
