Inspecio

The Inspecio mod dramatically improves item tooltips in Minecraft, making gameplay more informative and convenient. Instead of standard text descriptions, you get visually appealing and detailed pop-up hints for various item categories.

Mod Capabilities

Inspecio adds enhanced tooltips for a wide range of items:

• Armor - displays durability indicator
• Food - shows hunger and saturation levels
• Effects - beautifully formatted descriptions for potions, tipped arrows, and beacons
• Containers - shows contents of shulker boxes, chests, campfires, and chiseled bookshelves
• Music blocks - displays information about inserted discs
• Maps - shows thumbnail of filled maps
• Entities - displays mobs in buckets, spawn eggs, and spawner cages
• Signs - shows sign text
• Banner patterns - displays finished pattern
• Repair cost - shows item repair level

Configuration

The mod offers a flexible configuration system through the config/inspecio.json file. You can enable and disable various types of tooltips, choose compact or expanded display modes, configure animations, and much more.
