Smart Pickup
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
Smart Pickup Preview
Pickup Preview brings item pickup feedback directly to your crosshair
Whenever you pick up items in Minecraft, a notification pops near your cursor, showing the item icon, count, and material rarity color.
100% Client-Side: Works on any server and in any modpack.
Customization (Mod Menu)
Open the configuration screen via Mod Menu to customize:
- Position: Anchor notifications to the Right or Left side of your crosshair.
- Minimalist Mode: Toggle full item names off to
+#badges. - Toggles & Sliders: Adjust text scale, opacity, display lifetime, drop shadows, and material icon visibility.
Modpack Usage
You are free to include Smart Pickup Preview in any modpack on Modrinth or CurseForge!
