Damage Overlay is a small mod that renders a red screen overlay based on the player's current health, making low health and incoming damage much more noticable to the player.
Features
- Renders a red vignette when health is low, becoming stronger as the health decreases further
- Displays a short flash when taking damage, with higher damage resulting in a stronger flash
- Highly configurable: Customize overall opacity, brightness, effect start health, and fade speeds
- Overlays are hidden alongside the GUI when using the F1 key
