Advanced Book
by Eennou
Advanced Book is a Forge mod for reading and sharing books with graphics, illustrations and multiple languages, running on client and server.
What it does
The mod adds a book with graphics, which can carry illustrations and text in several languages, including English and Russian, and a LOLCAT setting for playful text. A book's contents can be copied into another book, so a finished page set does not have to be written twice.
Illustrations can be placed in the world with an Illustration Frame, so a picture made in a book can be shown on a wall or in a room. Both players and server owners can use it on a shared world, since the server and every player need the mod. Files are published for Forge only, across seven release versions, and the mod is licensed as All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
