Modern Map Tooltip

by JustGnat

With Modern Map Tooltip, a filled map shows its contents when hovered in the inventory, including the map component tooltip that the vanilla game does not display.

What it does

The mod displays the map component tooltip and lets players view the contents of a map in a tooltip, with some extra customisation. Map contents are normally sent only to the client that holds the map, so unexplored or unknown areas of other maps can appear blank; the tooltip shows what the client has. Chests also display their contents in the tooltip, which the mod adds on top of the map view.

Modern Map Tooltip runs on the client alone, so servers need nothing installed and players join without it. It is published for Fabric only, across six release versions, 1.21.11 – 26.3, and the code is closed: the mod is not open source and is released under All rights reserved. The configuration file is saved to disk, and the config menu opens with a command, where the options for the tooltip are set.

Key features

  1. Map component tooltip

    Hovering a filled map shows its contents as a tooltip, including areas that the holding client has explored.

  2. Tooltip customisation

    A config menu sets how the map view and tooltip look, so the display can be adjusted to taste.

  3. Chest contents display

    Chests show their items in the tooltip as well, so storage can be read without opening the container.

  4. Config menu command

    The configuration screen opens through a command, and the settings persist in a saved configuration file.

Questions

Does Modern Map Tooltip need to be on the server?

No. Only the player's game needs it, and servers run without it.

Which loader does Modern Map Tooltip support?

Fabric is the only loader with files. The latest Fabric file is 1.4-26.3, published on 2026-10-12 for 26.3.

Where are the tooltip options changed?

The config menu opens through a command, and the settings are written to the saved configuration file. Versions before 1.4 used the modernmaptooltip config instead.
