Questions about Shiny Hearts.
4 questions
How do I install Shiny Hearts?
Put the zipped pack in your resourcepacks folder through Options, Resource Packs, Open Pack Folder. Then move it to the Selected side of the Resource Packs screen. Keep the file as a .zip. A pack built for another release can still load but shows an incompatibility warning.
Does Shiny Hearts work with AppleSkin and Combat Roll?
Yes. AppleSkin and Combat Roll are both listed as compatible on the pack's Modrinth page, and the newest build requires nothing else, so neither mod is needed to use the pack. You can run the pack on its own or alongside either one.
Is Shiny Hearts available for Bedrock?
No. It is a Java pack only. Bedrock uses a different resource format, and the pack is listed for Java on Modrinth, so it will not load on Bedrock.
What does Shiny Hearts change?
It retextures all types of hearts and the hunger icons on the hotbar. Modrinth files it under the GUI, 16x and vanilla-like categories, and it is a narrow pack aimed at those icons rather than a full overhaul.
