NeoForgeClient-side onlyAll rights reserved1.20.6 – 1.21.1

What it does

The NeoForge mod is a client-side tooltip enhancement, so only the client needs it; servers run without it. Players can customize which details appear, and it is compatible with other mods. Files are published for NeoForge across 1.20.6 – 1.21.1, with 1 for 1.21.1 as the latest file, released 2024-08-16. The code is all rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.

Key features

  1. Durability display

    Durability values are rendered inside the tooltip, so remaining uses show without opening the debug screen.

  2. Selected NBT values

    Chosen NBT data is shown in item tooltips, letting players read stored values at a glance.

  3. Block and item IDs

    Registry IDs can be shown directly in tooltips, replacing the F3+H toggle for that information.
