Selfaware 1.0.0 is out.
This is the first proper release of Selfaware, a client-side Minecraft mod that lets you see your own nametag while playing in third person.
The main idea is simple, but I wanted it to feel like something that actually belongs in Minecraft. Your nametag follows the normal rendering behavior, and Selfaware can also match server-specific nametag styling instead of always showing a basic vanilla label.
There are a few integrations already included. On DonutSMP, Selfaware can show your own rank, prefix and balance. Simple Voice Chat is also supported, so your own voice and group icons can appear next to your nametag.
There is also a settings menu with a live player preview, options for the different integrations, and everything can be changed without leaving the game.
A big part of this first release was compatibility. Selfaware already supports a lot of Minecraft versions and works across Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt where available. The project is structured so I can keep adding versions without having to maintain completely separate mods.

Hello! Today I continued working on Selfaware.I mainly focused on fixing issues across different Minecraft versions and mod loaders, so everything works more consistently. There were a few version-specific problems from yesterday that are now cleaned up.I also added a proper menu for Selfaware. It makes the mod feel a lot more complete and gives me a good place to add settings and new features later.Besides that, I spent some time cleaning up the overall project structure. Since I want to support a lot of Minecraft versions and mod loaders, I wanted to get the structure right early instead of having everything become messy later.The base is now in a much better state, so I can start focusing more on actual features next.
Hello! Today I started working on a new project called Selfaware.Selfaware is a Minecraft mod that displays your own nametag above your head while playing in F5. I tried a few other mods that do something similar, but I found them a bit too simple, so I wanted to make my own version with more features.I want Selfaware to support things like server specific nametag formatting, DonutSMP features, Simple Voice Chat icons for yourself, and more in the future. I also want to support as many Minecraft versions and mod loaders as possible.Today I mainly worked on the base of the mod. So far, all supported versions and mod loaders seem to be working correctly, and the nametag is rendering properly. I also added Simple Voice Chat support, so you can now see your own voice chat icons above your nametag.
