3rd Life Mod gives you only three lives to survive in Minecraft. Each time you die, you lose one life, and your username changes color from green to yellow, and then to red. After your third and final death, you become a spectator, allowing you to watch the world without being able to interact with it.
Features:
- Players start the game with only three lives.
- Your username’s color changes from green to yellow, and finally to red as you die.
- After your third death, you enter spectator mode instead of respawning.
- Craft a Jagged Dagger to steal a life from another player when you defeat them.
- Use a Temporary Life to get an extra life that lasts for five minutes.
- Collect Golden Lives to gain extra, stackable lives that can exceed the initial three.
- Build and charge a Reviver block to bring yourself back to life from spectator mode.
Commands:
/resetlives (player name): Resets a player’s lives back to the start./addlives (player name) (number): Gives a player a specific number of lives./takelives (player name) (number): Removes a specific number of lives from a player./setlives (player name) (number): Sets a player’s life count to a specific number.
How to Use:
- Hold down the “I” key to see how many lives you have left.
- Press the “O” key to change where the lives display is on your screen.
- Right-click a life item to add it to your own life count.
- To revive yourself after losing all lives, find a Reviver block that has been filled.
