Expanded Tooltips (Forge)

This is the Forge version of the mod. There is also a version for Fabric/Quilt.

Expanded Tooltips is an open-source client-side modification that adds custom descriptions to all vanilla and modded blocks and items in Minecraft.

Mod Features

The mod comes with pre-made descriptions for all blocks and items, as shown in the image above and in the examples section. However, you can customize it using language files—from adding support for blocks and items from other mods to creating descriptions in different languages! Since the project is open-source, you can suggest an official translation through the request system on GitHub.

How to Add Descriptions

Note: If the image is too small, right-click and open it in a new tab.

All descriptions are created in the language file for the corresponding language in the assets/expanded_tooltips/lang directory.

To modify an existing description, add an entry similar to the first one in the image, separating sentences with a space and the \n character. This will automatically replace the description set by the mod.

Adding a new description works almost identically to modification. The only difference is that you need to specify the identifier of the new block or item from the modification.
