Show Everything (Forge Port)
Forge port of MinersLab/show-everything.
Show items, blocks, fluids, and entities in chat with hover details. The command logic runs on the server, and the mod declares remote clients as optional, so vanilla/Forge clients without this mod can still join.
Clients that also install this mod get enhanced /show-item rendering for very large item NBT. Clients without the mod receive a safe shortened hover instead, so oversized NBT cannot kick players through Minecraft's chat packet string limit.
Commands
All commands are available to normal players.
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
/show-item |
Shows the item in your main hand, or offhand if the main hand is empty. |
/show-block |
Shows the block you are looking at within 15 blocks. Falls back to your current position. |
/show-block <x> <y> <z> |
Shows the block at a specific position. |
/show-fluid |
Shows the fluid you are looking at within 15 blocks. Falls back to your current position. |
/show-fluid <x> <y> <z> |
Shows the fluid/block at a specific position. |
/show-entity |
Shows the entity you are looking at within 15 blocks. Falls back to yourself. |
/show-entity <selector> |
Shows a selected entity. |
Aliases without hyphens are also registered, such as /showitem and /showblock.
Client keybind (since v1.0.5)
With the client mod installed, an optional keybind (customizable in Controls, default H) shows the item under the cursor in chat. It works in any screen where an item tooltip is displayed — container screens, other mods' GUIs, and item-list overlays such as JEI/REI/EMI — and requires the server to run the mod. The chat output is identical to /show-item.
