💬 Notes

• This mod works completely standalone and is visual-only. It does not change boss mechanics, spawns, or AI. If you have Cobblemon or Pixelmon installed, the mod will complement them, but they are 100% optional and only there to fit your modpack's theme.

• Fully compatible with Sodium, Optifine, and Iris shaders, as it does not touch rendering engines—only the HUD overlay.

• This mod is client-side only. You do not need to install it on a server, and it won’t affect gameplay for other players.

• ⚠️ This mod uses Mixins to override the vanilla boss bar rendering. It may conflict with other mods that also modify the boss bar HUD.
