UltimateHealthDisplay
In the vast world of Minecraft, knowing your enemy's health can be the difference between victory and a sudden respawn. UltimateHealthDisplay is a powerful add-on for Paper servers that brings real-time health information directly to your action bar. Whether you're facing a custom MythicMobs boss or sizing up an opponent in PvP, this plugin delivers clear, customizable health displays without impacting server performance.
What Makes UltimateHealthDisplay Stand Out?
Unlike basic health plugins, UltimateHealthDisplay is built with compatibility and performance in mind. It supports Minecraft versions 1.21 through 1.21.11 and runs on Paper (or Spigot) servers, leveraging modern Java 21 features. The plugin integrates seamlessly with popular tools like MythicMobs, LevelledMobs, WorldGuard, and PlaceholderAPI, ensuring it fits right into your existing server setup.
Six Unique Display Styles
UltimateHealthDisplay for Minecraft comes with six professionally designed styles, each offering a distinct way to visualize health. You can choose from classic Hearts, modern Bars, clean Lines, straightforward Numbers, immersive RPG bars, or a sleek Minimalist dot display. Every style is fully customizable, so you can tweak colors, icons, and layout to match your server's theme.
Smart Performance Optimization
Performance is a top priority. The plugin uses async ray tracing to detect entities without blocking the main server thread, a smart caching system to avoid redundant calculations, and camera movement detection that updates only when necessary. Even on servers with hundreds of players, UltimateHealthDisplay maintains a TPS impact below 0.5 and uses less than 50 MB of RAM.
How to Install UltimateHealthDisplay
Getting started is straightforward. Follow these steps to add UltimateHealthDisplay to your server:
- Download the latest JAR file from the official plugin page.
- Stop your server completely.
- Place the JAR into your server's
/plugins/folder. - Start the server to generate the default configuration.
- Customize the
config.ymlfile insideplugins/UltimateHealthDisplay/to suit your needs. - Reload with
/uhd reloadto apply changes without restarting.
If you're using the foxygame.net launcher, you can skip the manual download entirely—UltimateHealthDisplay is available in the launcher's add-on catalog for a one-click install, with automatic updates ensuring you always have the latest version and perfect compatibility with your server setup.
Customizing Your Health Display
Once installed, you have full control over how health appears. The configuration file lets you toggle health for mobs and players independently, set the active style, and even create your own custom styles using placeholders like {name}, {health}, and {maxhealth}. You can define full, half, and empty icons, and incorporate PlaceholderAPI placeholders to show extra data such as player levels or custom stats.
Region-Based Control
With WorldGuard integration, you can blacklist specific regions like spawn or safe zones, so health displays automatically vanish where they aren't needed. This keeps lobbies clean and prevents information overload in non-combat areas.
Compatibility and Conflict Prevention
UltimateHealthDisplay is designed to play nicely with other plugins. It automatically yields to other action bar plugins to avoid flickering or overwriting, ignores Citizens NPCs so their health doesn't clutter the screen, and works flawlessly alongside McMMO, TAB, and scoreboard plugins. The permission system also lets you control exactly which players can see health displays, making it ideal for donor perks or role-specific visibility.
