Thank you for looking into the plugin! This page will go into how to set the plugin and the required dependencies up, as well as start configuring it.

Shows how to install Tooltips with Oraxen (same way with ItemsAdder)

Installation

1. Download the latest version of the plugin

2. Download the required dependency

   • ProtocolLib

3. Drag the plugins into your plugins folder

4. Start or restart the server

After restart

If you're using Oraxen or ItemsAdder, you can configure the plugin to automatically copy it's assets into those plugins' resource pack folders. Otherwise, use the "Without plugins" option.

Oraxen

Inside Tooltips

1. Go into config.yml

2. Set copy-resource-pack to enabled: true

3. Set the path to path: Oraxen/pack/assets

Inside Oraxen (Highly recommended)

1. Go into settings.yml

2. Set formatting titles: false and subtitles: false

Why?

Tooltips plugin checks conditions every defined amount of ticks. When it does so and the conditions match, a title is sent to the player with the tooltip. Oraxen by default intercepts these titles and reads them, which (due to the amount of these titles being sent) takes time and may cause unnecessary lag. Disabling these options prevents Oraxen from reading the titles.

It also for some reason breaks backslashes " \ " by unnecessarily escaping them.

1. Do /oraxen reload all to reload Oraxen

ItemsAdder

Inside Tooltips

1. Go into config.yml

2. Set copy-resource-pack to enabled: true

3. Set the path to path: ItemsAdder/contents

4. Do /iazip to reload resource pack

Without plugins

You will have to first create your own resource pack (if you don't have an existing one already) and then copy the contents of ...plugins/Tooltips/generated into your resource packs assets folder. After that, host the resource pack somewhere (for example here or here). You will have to re-merge the resource pack after every config change related to themes or icons.

Additional setup

Some conditions require additional plugins. One notable one is PlaceholderAPI. See all of supported plugins here:
