What the mod does
- Puts a health bar above each enemy
- Bar stays above the model and faces your camera
- Size stays sensible at any distance
- Shows a damage chip so big hits are obvious
- Optional always-on or only after damage
- Works in multiplayer
Multiplayer info
Only the player who wants the bars needs the mod. Host not required. Other players do not need it.
Config settings
You can tune how it looks and when it shows. These are the key options.
- AlwaysShow: keep bars visible at all times or only after damage
- ShowOnDamageSeconds: how long bars stay up after a hit when not always shown
- BarWidth: base width of the bar
- BarHeight: base height of the bar
- OffsetPercentOfHeight: how far above the enemy to float the bar
- ExtraOffsetMeters: extra space above the head
- DistanceScaleFactor: how much the bar grows with distance so it stays readable
- MinScale: smallest it can get
- MaxScale: largest it can get
- OnlyWhenVisible: hide the bar when the enemy is off screen or fully hidden
- LerpSpeed: how smooth the front bar moves when healing
- ChipDropSpeed: how fast the damage chip falls after you hit
- HealCatchupSpeed: how fast the chip catches up when healing
- UseMeshParentIfAvailable: lock to the mesh root when possible
Technical details
- BepInEx plugin with Harmony patches

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
