For mod authors:
Installing users please ignore this segment!
To load this and other mods' standalone scripts (aka make your mod compatible with CSHR) just add the following code to your hudmenu.swf:
// Import the Loader class & UncaughtErrorEvent in the package with the other imports
import flash.display. Loader;
import flash.events. UncaughtErrorEvent;
// Add the loader as global variable within the HUDMenu class
private var cshrLoader:Loader;
// This is the topmost already existing function in hudmenu.swf
public function HUDMenu()
// There is a lot of bethesda code here
// Insert this code at the end of the function
this.cshrLoader = new Loader();
addChild(this.cshrLoader);
this.cshrLoader.load(new URLRequest("CompatibleShowHealthRedux.swf"),new LoaderContext(false,ApplicationDomain.currentDomain));
this.cshrLoader.uncaughtErrorEvents.addEventListener(UncaughtErrorEvent. UNCAUGHT_ERROR,this.uncaughtErrorHandler);
catch(e:Error)
// You can optionally log loading errors to the screen here
// Add a handler for when the mod loading fails horribly (won't trigger when there's no CSHR to be loaded)
public function uncaughtErrorHandler(param1:UncaughtErrorEvent) :
// You can optionally log loading errors to the screen here
If your mod is running as standalone script as well please feel free to send me a DM on Nexus and I'll add your mod to my loaders as well so that users can load mods in any order to avoid conflicts and confusion! :)

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 568 endorsements and over 27k downloads.
- Multiple positioning options to fit your UI preference.
- Actively maintained (last updated May 2024).
⚠️ Cons
- Manual install requires editing Fallout76Custom.ini, which can be tricky for first-time modders.
- Only one positioning variant can be installed at a time—you'll need to swap files to change position.
- Compatibility depends on load order; if other mods don't load correctly, the health percentage may not show.
For Fallout 76 players who want a clear, customizable health percentage display without breaking other UI mods. If you use Text Chat or other UI overhauls, this is built to play nice. Skip if you prefer a minimal HUD or don't need enemy health percentages.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're new to modding, extract the optional Fallout76Custom.ini to your My Games folder—it sets up the necessary archive list for you.
- When editing Fallout76Custom.ini, make sure to append the mod's .ba2 filename to the sResourceArchive2List line, separated by commas.
- Load Text Chat last if you use it, so its loader takes priority and ensures compatibility.
