Neat is a highly functional and minimalistic mod designed to enhance the player's experience by adding essential Unit Frames above entities within the Minecraft world. This mod addresses the common need for readily accessible information about mobs and other entities, providing crucial details such as their current health, armor status, and even their names directly in the game's interface. By presenting this information in a clear and unobtrusive manner, Neat significantly improves situational awareness, allowing players to make more informed decisions during combat and exploration, ultimately leading to a more engaging and strategic gameplay session without cluttering the screen with unnecessary elements. The core functionality of Neat revolves around displaying dynamic health bars and other vital statistics directly above each entity. These health bars are intelligently designed to appear only when the entity is not obstructed, ensuring that the player's view remains clear. Furthermore, the health bar's color dynamically shifts from green to yellow and then to red, providing an immediate visual cue of the entity's remaining health percentage. The mod also impressively displays the mob's specific attributes, such as enchantments like Smite or Bane of Arthropods, and their equipped armor, offering a deeper understanding of their combat capabilities. For stacked entities, such as multiple mobs in one space or unique combinations like spider and chicken jockeys, Neat intelligently groups their health bars together for better management. This mod offers broad compatibility across various Minecraft versions and loading systems, ensuring that a wide range of players can benefit from its features. Neat is designed to work with the Fabric, Forge, NeoForged, and Quilt mod loaders. It supports Minecraft versions 1.21.5, 1.21.6, 1.21.7, 1.21.8, and also versions 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2, and 26.2. Crucially, Neat is a client-side only mod, meaning it only needs to be installed on the player's game client and does not require any server-side modifications or installations. This simplifies the installation process for multiplayer environments as server administrators do not need to take any action. Installing Neat is a straightforward process that requires placing the mod file into the correct directory for your chosen mod loader. For users of Fabric, Forge, NeoForged, or Quilt, the mod file should be placed within the 'mods' folder of your Minecraft installation. Before launching the game, it is essential to ensure that you have the corresponding mod loader installed and that your Minecraft version is compatible with the mod. Verifying these prerequisites will guarantee a smooth installation and prevent any potential conflicts or errors, allowing you to immediately enjoy the enhanced entity information provided by Neat.
