Tips — FAQ

Troubleshooting

No tip appears on the loading screen. - Confirm showTips is enabled in the config file. - Make sure at least one tip. key resolves to non-empty text in the active language. - Very fast world loads (small superflat worlds, high-end SSDs) can flash the loading screen so briefly the tip is hard to read — this is normal.

My custom tips do not show up. - Verify the keys start exactly with tip. and the language file is valid JSON (a trailing comma will break the whole file). - Ensure the resource pack is enabled and loaded above other packs that might override the same keys. - Reload resource packs (F3+T) or restart the game after editing lang files.

Tips appear in the wrong language. - The tip follows the game's active language. Add the same tip. keys to that language's lang file, or the mod falls back to en_us.

Formatting codes show as literal text (e.g. \u00A7a). - Use the section sign character itself in the string, and make sure your editor saves the lang file as UTF-8.
