🎮 Krylix v1.3.0 for Minecraft 26.1 (NeoForge & Fabric)

✨ What's New:

• Full Minecraft 26.1 & Java 25 Support:

  • Native builds for NeoForge (26.1.2.95+) and Fabric (0.155.2+).
  • Upgraded to Java 25 and modern rendering pipelines.

• Authentic GUI Hearts for In-World Mob Health Indicator:

  • Crosshair health nameplates now feature genuine Minecraft GUI heart textures rendered directly from the game's texture atlas (hud/heart/full, half, container) alongside crisp HP/MaxHP numeric values.
  • Full-Bright Visibility: Health indicators are rendered unshaded (FULL_BRIGHT), remaining 100% vibrant and clear even under dark tree canopies, inside caves, or at night.
  • Raised the health nameplate anchor cleanly (+0.35 blocks) above mob models to prevent overlapping horns, ears, and heads.

• Pixel-Perfect Mob Head Icons (36+ Mobs):

  • Restored accurate mob face crops across all 36 supported mobs (Zoglin, Hoglin, Skeleton, Creeper, Spider, Enderman, Warden, Breeze, Bogged, Ghast, Witch, Iron Golem, and more) in the top-left Mob Stats HUD.
  • Corrected resolution and UV mapping across all entity textures.

• High-Definition Player Face Avatars:

  • Switched player avatar rendering across the Leaderboard Screen, Kill Feed HUD, and Death Recap to Minecraft's native PlayerFaceExtractor, ensuring proper scaling and outer 3D hat/hair layer support.

📥 Requirements:

• Minecraft: 26.1.x (26.1.2)
• Java: 25+
• Loader: NeoForge or Fabric (with Fabric API)

🚀 Krylix v1.2.0 — Minecraft 1.21.1 & Multi-Loader Update

We are excited to bring Krylix to Minecraft 1.21.1 with a completely revamped architecture and full Multi-Loader (NeoForge & Fabric) support!

🌟 What's New & Improvements:

• Fabric & NeoForge Multi-Loader: Krylix is now natively available on both NeoForge and Fabric!
• Pure Java 21 Performance: Completely rewritten and migrated from Kotlin to Java 21, resulting in lightning-fast load times and zero extra language library dependencies (KotlinForForge is no longer required!).
• 3D In-World Health Indicator: Fixed billboard matrix calculation — smoothly tracks and renders targeted mob health bars directly above entities in 3D world space.
• Optimized HUD Layout: Repositioned the Mob Stats HUD to the top-left for a cleaner, non-intrusive view.
• Death Recap: View who defeated you, their weapon, distance, and damage dealt on the death screen.

Added

• Player leaderboard GUI (default key O) — a dark rounded-panel screen, not a chat dump. Two tabs: PvP (kills/deaths/K-D) and Mob Kills (players ranked by personal mob-kill count). Scrollable, with self-row highlight, avatars, empty states, and page-switch controls (60 entries/page) that appear once you scroll to the bottom of a page.
• Mob kill stats HUD panel (top-left, default key L) — tracks hostile-mob kills for the current world, persists across restarts.
• Health indicator (default key H) — compact HP readout above whatever entity is under your crosshair, using an extended-range raytrace (works past normal interaction distance). 4 configurable bar styles: Blocks, ASCII, Dots, Number Only.
• Full configuration screen (Esc → Mods → Krylix → Config) — previously registered but never wired into Forge's mod list; now actually reachable in-game. Covers kill feed timing/limits, panel toggles, health bar style, and the server-side broadcast restriction.
• Server-side setting: restrict kill feed broadcasts to players in the same dimension (default: off).
• Persistent toggle state for kill feed, mob stats panel, and health indicator — no longer reset on restart.
• Toggle feedback: a click sound and an action-bar ON/OFF confirmation whenever a HUD element is toggled via keybind.
• Default keybinds: K (kill feed), L (mob stats), O (leaderboard), H (health indicator) — bound out of the box, no setup required.
• Heart icon in the kill feed replacing the old plain "NNhp" text.
• Test command: /krylix leaderboard testfill [count] (1–500, client-only, visual) to preview scrolling/pagination without needing real players.
• Localization: full translations into 13 languages — English, Russian, Belarusian, Ukrainian, Polish, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese (Taiwan), German, Swedish, Dutch, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, French.
• 5 additional verified mob face textures: Enderman (composited from the base + glowing-eyes overlay texture, since the base alone is nearly featureless black), Ravager, Warden, Wither, Zombie Villager — bringing verified mob coverage to 27. Guardian, Shulker, and Phantom were evaluated the same way and excluded again — their front-face crop doesn't read as a recognizable face.

Fixed

• Iron Golem and other unmapped mobs showing a random player skin instead of a neutral fallback.
• Spider/cave spider showing the wrong body part instead of the face (wrong UV assumption).
• Duplicate kill feed rendering from two independently-registered render hooks.
• Kill distance calculation missing a square root.
• Weapon detection matching on localized display name instead of registry id (broke on non-English clients).
• Self-kill / environmental death entries showing a confusing blank killer avatar.
• Rank numbers overlapping avatars in the leaderboard for 3-digit ranks.
• Next-page arrow rendering off-center (Minecraft's </> glyphs aren't pixel-mirror-symmetric) — replaced with a hand-drawn, geometrically mirrored pixel arrow.
• Flickering/highlighted text when the health indicator's own name line collided with vanilla's built-in nametag for custom-named entities under the crosshair.
• Leaderboard tab labels, column headers, and footer text were hardcoded in English and ignored the selected language.
• "Mob Kills" leaderboard tab originally listed mob types instead of players ranked by mob-kill count.
• /krylix toggle, /krylix status, /krylix hud ..., and /krylix leaderboard ... command feedback was hardcoded in English; now localized.

Removed

• The kill streak system (Double Kill → Godlike chat announcements and escalating sounds) — added noise without enough value, removed entirely along with its config option and internal tracking.
• The /testkill command tree (sword/bow/axe/headshot/multi) — synthetic test-data scaffolding with no end-user purpose.

Changed

• Renamed all packages from the com.example.modid template to com.eliasnvx.krylix.
• Removed the unused Fabric module entirely — Forge only going forward.
• Skin textures are now cached instead of re-queried every frame.
• Kill feed avatars shrunk and given rounded corners.
• Mod description and metadata broadened to reflect the full feature set (previously described only the kill feed).
