Hwyla Mod gives you information about the blocks and mobs you are looking at in Minecraft. When you point your cursor at something, a small tooltip appears on your screen showing helpful details. This mod is a continuation of the popular WAILA mod, and it is compatible with all addons made for it. It works for both Forge and Fabric.
Features:
- See the name of any block or mob you are looking at.
- View the contents of inventories like chests and furnaces without opening them.
- Check the amount of energy or fluid stored inside tanks and machines.
- Look up recipes for blocks directly in the world by pressing a key (requires JEI).
- Change the colors, text style, and position of the tooltip in the in-game config menu.
- Turn on a narrator to have the tooltip information read out loud.
- You can disable the item icon in the tooltip if you find it unnecessary.
Commands:
/dumphandlers: Creates a text file that lists all registered tooltip handlers. This can help find and fix issues with other mods.
How to Use:
- To see information, simply point your crosshair at any block or mob. A tooltip will automatically appear.
- Press Numpad 3 or Numpad 4 by default to look up the recipe of the block you are looking at. This requires Just Enough Items (JEI) to work.
- To change how the tooltip looks, go to the mod’s configuration screen in the game. From there, you can adjust colors, formatting, and other options.
