Enhanced Tooltips
by Wadrix
Enhanced Tooltips is a client-side Minecraft mod that adds useful details to item tooltips for tools, armor, enchantments and food.
What it does
Item tooltips in vanilla Minecraft leave out several values that players often want to check. Enhanced Tooltips adds that information to the existing tooltip, keeping the vanilla style, so the extra lines read like the rest of the game.
Each tooltip element can be switched on or off, and the colors of the added lines can be changed. Every option is set in the built-in GUI config menu, so no file editing is needed. The mod is client-side only: only the client needs it, and a server can run without it, which is the safe way to use it on multiplayer servers.
Builds cover 1.20.1 – 1.21.11 across 18 release versions, published for Fabric and NeoForge. The code is under the MIT License, and the project is not open source.
