✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-trusted with 697 endorsements and 14,454 downloads.
- Simple, focused feature that helps with damage testing and boss HP monitoring.
- Supports a wide range of languages for actual HP display.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2019 — may be incompatible with current game updates.
- Modifies hudmenu.swf, so it conflicts with any other mod touching that file.
- Non-supported languages only get percentage display, not actual HP values.
For Fallout 76 players who want a quick, at-a-glance view of enemy health, especially for testing weapon damage or tracking boss HP. If you play in a supported language and don't use other UI mods, this is a handy lightweight addition. Skip it if you rely on other mods that modify the HUD or if you need actual HP in an unsupported language.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to create Fallout76Custom.ini in the Fallout 76 root folder, not in Documents, and paste the exact line SResourceArchiveList2 = ShowHealth.ba2.
- If you use other UI mods, check if they also modify hudmenu.swf — this mod will conflict with them.
- After installing, verify the health display appears above enemy name bars; if not, double-check the INI syntax.
