Keeping track of item durability in Minecraft usually means hovering over each tool and squinting at a tiny tooltip — not exactly ideal in the middle of a fight or mining session. ShayBox's Durability101 Mod, a faithful remake of RedBanHammer's original Durability101, solves this by adding a clear, color-coded durability bar directly beneath every equipment item in your inventory. At a glance, you can tell whether your diamond pickaxe is in perfect shape or one swing away from shattering, making it far easier to manage repairs and replacements on the fly.
Key Features
- Color-coded durability bars — Each equipment item displays a bar underneath it that transitions from green (optimal condition) to red (critical state), so you can instantly assess wear without opening any menus.
- Remaining uses counter — A numeric indicator shows exactly how many uses are left before an item breaks, removing all guesswork from durability management.
- Works across all equipment — Any item that can wear out — tools, weapons, armor, and more — gets the durability overlay, keeping you informed no matter what gear you carry.
