About the Simply Tooltips mod
Note: By default, Simply Tooltips will only render for modded items that have valid Simply Tooltip theme files created (such as Simply Swords and Simply Bows).
- To enable tooltips for ALL modded items, enable 'applyTooltipsToModItems' in the config.
- To enable tooltips for vanilla items, enable 'applyTooltipsToVanillaItems' in the config.
Creating custom themes
Simply Tooltips allows you to create your own tooltip themes, and apply them to any item in the game (modded or vanilla). This is entirely data driven, allowing these themes to be applied via resourcepacks.
For information on how to create and assign these themes, please see the GitHub page.
Misc
Simply Tooltips allows you to generate gifs of any on-screen tooltip by pressing the hotkey ('H' by default). This saves a short gif of the tooltip to the screenshots folder. Useful for showcasing your custom themes.
