Overview#

Tips adds informative tips and hints to Minecraft's loading screens. The mod ships with over 200 built-in tips and supports custom tip packs via resource packs and server-side config.

This version is a NeoForge 26.2 (Minecraft 1.21.1) port by 9Minecraft Studios, based on the original Tips mod by Darkhax.

Built-in Tips#

The mod includes 200+ tips in multiple categories:

  • Crafting ? lesser-known recipes and shortcuts
  • Combat ? PvP and PvE strategies, critical hit mechanics
  • Farming ? crop growth, animal breeding, fishing
  • Exploration ? biome tips, structure locations, nether/end travel
  • Redstone ? basic circuits and common contraptions
  • General ? game settings, accessibility, keybinds

Built-in tips are in the bundled en_us.json (and 13 other languages).

Custom Tips via Resource Packs#

Create a resource pack with this structure:

mypack.zip/
  pack.mcmeta
  data/tipsmod/tips/
    my_tips.json

Each JSON file under data/tipsmod/tips/ is loaded as a tip set.

JSON format:

{"tips": [{"text": "Your tip text here", "category": "general"}]}

Tips support Minecraft's raw JSON text format for colors, translations, and click events.

Server-Side Tips#

Server operators can define custom tips that are sent to all connected clients:

  1. Place JSON tip files in config/tipsmod/ on the server
  2. Players with the mod will receive these tips on login
  3. Server tips temporarily override client-side tips while connected

This allows server owners to show rules, wiki links, and community info.

Getting Started#

  1. Install NeoForge 26.2 for Minecraft 1.21.1.
  2. Place the mod JAR in .minecraft/mods/.
  3. Launch Minecraft ? tips appear automatically on loading screens.
  4. No configuration needed for basic use.

Want custom tips? Create a resource pack with your own tip JSON files (see Custom Tips section).
