About this project

What does Mob Locator add?

Now with Per-Mob Colors! (See below)

Mob Locator

Mob Locator

Ever felt like something was lurking just out of sight? Mob Locator gives you a tactical advantage by visualizing "heard" entities directly on your HUD. It uses a sleek, non-intrusive radar system centered on your experience bar to show you exactly where mobs are located relative to your position.

FEATURES
Dynamic Radar Mobs appear as icons on your XP bar. Their position shifts as you turn, providing a 180° field of view
Distance Scaling Icons change shape based on proximity. A tiny dot represents a distant sound, while a large square indicates a mob is right on top of you
Elevation Indicators Small arrows appear above or below icons if a mob is more than 3 blocks above or below your current Y-level
Variable Hearing Range Unlike simple radars, this mod uses "hearing" logic. Common mobs appear within 16 blocks, while massive entities like the Ender Dragon (192 blocks) or Wardens (48 blocks) can be detected from much further away
Per-Mob Colors Each mob can show its own unique color based on how it actually looks in-game, including different colors for variants like Wolves, Cats, Sheep, and more
Smart Classification
Hostile Shows Red fill for aggressive mobs (Creepers, Zombies, Skeletons, etc.).

Shows White fill for neutral mobs (Endermen, Wolves, Bees, etc.) until provoked.
Passive Shows White fill (Cows, Sheep, etc.)
Invisible Shows Gray outline so you aren't surprised by invisible mobs
HOW TO USE

Simply install the mod and play! The radar is automatically active and sits right above your XP bar.

Center of the bar The mob is directly in front of you
Left/Right edges The mob is to your far left or right
Up/Down Arrows The mob is in a cave below you or on a ledge above you
CONFIGURATION

If you have Mod Menu installed, you can customize your experience:

Show Invisible Mobs Toggle whether the radar picks up invisible entities
Custom Colors Change the Hex colors for Hostile, Passive, and Invisible indicators
Use Per-Mob Colors Give every mob its own unique color based on its real appearance
Use Black Outlines Choose between black outlines or colored outlines when Per-Mob Colors is enabled
Mob Blacklist Exclude specific mobs from the radar by name
