Using EMI Effect Descriptions on Multiplayer Servers

Client-Side Operation

EMI Effect Descriptions runs entirely on the client side and requires EMI to display its status effect screens. Because it does not add any new items, blocks, or world data to Minecraft, your worlds remain completely untouched by custom registry entries.

1. Make sure both EMI and EMI Effect Descriptions are active in your local game client.

2. Join your singleplayer world or connect to a multiplayer server as normal.

3. Open your inventory to browse status effect explanations, color-coded effect names, and source item lists right away.

Playing on Servers and Removing the Mod Safely

Because the mod operates strictly on your client, a multiplayer server does not need to have EMI Effect Descriptions installed for you to read status effect guides while playing there. As long as your client has the mod loaded—along with any content mods required to join a modded server—it will automatically generate descriptions and source lists for the effects present in your game.

Similarly, because no blocks or items are created in your save files, you can add or remove the mod from an existing singleplayer world at any time without missing-block warnings or inventory corruption.
