Changelog

[1.3.0-beta] - 2026-07-06

Changed

• Level labels are now rendered client-side from synced data; mob names (CustomName) are no longer modified.
• Type names in labels resolve in each client's own language.
• Network protocol bumped to 2 — servers on 1.3.0 require clients on 1.3.0+.

Added

• Update notice in chat: once per session, players are notified when a newer version is on Modrinth, with a clickable download link.

Fixed

• Mobs now follow vanilla despawn rules exactly (the old name-based persistence workaround is gone).
• No more "Named entity died" log spam.
• Name tags, WTHIT/Jade and other mods now see clean mob names.
• Legacy [LvN] names from older versions are stripped automatically as chunks load.

Notes

• Players without the mod no longer see level labels (labels require the mod client-side).
