Welcome to ForgeHUD Starter

ForgeHUD Starter (1.4.3, one-time US$5.99) is the current ForgeHUD release. It gives your server the full HUD, party, skill, talent and progression systems — 27 configurable talent nodes across three active constellations — plus basic Warrior, Mage and Ranger starter classes, each with two working abilities (Cleave/Guard, Arcane Bolt/Mend, Focused Shot/Trail Rush). The legacy free Core archive (1.4.1) is no longer offered; the Starter is the only ForgeHUD package on sale. Orders placed at 1.4.2 keep their original 1.4.2 download.

New in 1.4.3: the dock is rebuilt as separate class, survival, XP and inventory rows on one backplate — shaded life/resource orbs replacing duplicate hearts, ten medieval hunger icons (full/half/empty and Hunger-effect states), the real Minecraft XP track with a gold level badge, and native armour and air clearance. F8 → Customise HUD gives every component its own saved switch, Styled/Vanilla/Hidden survival modes, size/spacing controls and a draggable dock — including an External class HUD preset that hides Forge's class displays when another plugin provides the HUD. Six new original ability icons, three class-menu emblems and the complete animated six-bone straw-and-burlap training dummy are included. Gameplay costs, damage and cooldowns are unchanged.

Open F8 → HUD size / layout to select the Party, Dungeon or Player panel — each has its own 50–150% size, four screen anchors and a saved position. Party and Dungeon offer Compact/Detailed styles; Player switches between the MMO panel and Classic resource-pack orbs.

What's in the Starter bundle

• server/ForgeHUD-1.4.3.jar — the Paper server plugin.
• client/ForgeHUD-Controls-1.4.3+1.21.11.jar — the optional Fabric companion (player's mods folder, not the server).
• The bundled resource pack — dock, orbs, hunger icons, dummy model and ability artwork.
• Install steps, changelog, SHA-256 manifest and the 1.4.3 validation record (protocol, cast, Survival, fallback, armour, air and restart-model checks).

The dock and class-menu screenshots are real in-game 1.4.3 captures. Panels showing the older 1.4.1 core interface are labelled interface demos, not 1.4.3 footage. Ability icons and class emblems are original AI-assisted artwork.
