📋 About This Mod
This mod is a work in progress. Use at your own risk and be sure to back up your saves beforehand. That said, I feel it's stable enough at the moment to release for other people to try out. Just be aware there could be crashes.
To use this mod you'll need the latest version of MGE XE and its included version of MWSE.
Once you have all the dependencies installed, just move the included data files folder into the Morrowind directory and it should be good to go.
Includes an MCM menu for blacklisting specific actors, changing the polling rate for updating the health bars, and toggling on/off the event-based health update.
As of version 0. 4a, you can reposition the health bar menu by clicking and dragging it while the command console is open.
If you run into any issues or have any suggestions, leave a comment and I'll try to respond.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 585 endorsements and 18k downloads—clearly fills a need.
- Simple, focused feature: no bloat, just health bars for your allies.
- MWSE Lua means it's lightweight and integrates smoothly with the HUD.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires MWSE, so you'll need to set that up first if you haven't.
- Last updated in 2021—might have issues with newer Morrowind patches.
- No screenshots or detailed instructions in the description, so you're on your own for setup.
For Morrowind players who use companions or summon spells and want to keep an eye on their health without opening menus. If you're a UI purist who likes minimal HUDs, this is a must-have. Skip if you never use companions or summons.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the latest MWSE installed and that your Morrowind is patched to 1.6.6+.
- Use a mod manager like Wrye Mash or Mod Organizer 2 to keep your MWSE lua mods organized.
- If health bars don't appear, check that the mod is placed in the correct Data Files folder and that MWSE is loading it.
