Apothic Tooltip Cleanup
If you play Minecraft with the Apotheosis mod, you know the struggle. Your carefully crafted sword or armor piece can end up with a tooltip that looks like a small novel. Affix lists, gem details, cooldown markers, durability lines, and summary blocks all pile up, making it hard to see the information you actually need. Apothic Tooltip Cleanup is a client-side Forge mod for Minecraft 1.20.1 that solves this problem elegantly. It gives you granular control over what appears on your item tooltips, so you can see the stats that matter without the visual noise.
Why You Need This Add-On
Apotheosis adds powerful affixes and gems to gear, but the default tooltips can be overwhelming. This mod cleans up the affix and gem tooltips that Apotheosis adds to weapons, armor, and raw gems. It is compatible with Apotheosis, Apotheotic Additions, and Apothic Attributes out of the box. You can also use it with Fallen Gems & Affixes, which has been tested as compatible. Everything is configurable, and every single feature can be turned off if you prefer the original look.
Truncate Affix Lists with a Key Press
The core feature of Apothic Tooltip Cleanup is its ability to truncate long affix lists. You can configure it to show all affixes, show the top N (default is 3), or hide all unless you hold the Alt key. When content is hidden, a "Hold Alt for full details" prompt appears, so you never lose access to information. This makes your tooltips clean and readable at a glance while keeping the full details just a key press away.
Affix Display Modes
The affix_display_mode setting controls how affixes show on tooltips. The three options are:
- All: Shows every affix on the item.
- Top N: Shows the first N affixes with Alt to expand the rest (default).
- Alt Only: Hides every affix unless Alt is held.
You can also set the affix_visible_count to define the N for top N mode. The default is 3, but you can adjust it to suit your preference.
Compact Gem Tooltips
Raw gems from Apotheosis come with detailed tooltips that can be bulky. This mod offers four modes for gem tooltips:
- Full: Keeps Apotheosis's original layout.
- Compact: Strips headers and the Unique tag, keeps the bullets, and removes "level to existing" wording (default).
- Ultra: Puts categories on one line and bonuses on one line for maximum brevity.
- Hidden: Removes all gem info from the tooltip.
You can also hide individual gem categories from "Fits In" lists. This is useful for modpacks that disable certain weapon types. For example, you could use ["Bows", "Crossbows"] on a pack that disables ranged weapons. If every category is hidden, the "Fits In:" header is also dropped.
Merge Empty Sockets
Socketed items can show multiple empty socket lines, cluttering the tooltip. The merge_empty_sockets feature collapses empty sockets into one summary line. Filled gems still render normally, and only the empty rows get merged. Mixed sockets are supported, so filled gems are shown with the empty count displayed below. This feature is on by default.
Hide Specific Tooltip Elements
Beyond affixes and gems, this mod lets you hide several other elements that Apotheosis adds to tooltips. The summarization_mode controls the Apotheosis summary block (Cold, Fire, HP%, Spell Resistance lines). The durability_bonus_mode controls the "ignores X% of durability damage" line. The potion_descriptions_mode controls potion-style affix descriptions. The affix_extras_mode controls the [⌛ MM:SS] cooldown markers and [Stacking] tags on affix lines, without ever touching the affix text itself.
Three-Mode Toggle System
Most hide features use a three-mode toggle:
- Show: Keeps the content fully visible.
- Alt: Hides it by default and reveals it while Alt is held.
- Delete: Hides it permanently with no Alt reveal.
This system gives you complete control. The affix source line is always hidden with no config option, as it is considered unnecessary clutter by default. You can also strip prefixes from affix names, sort affix lines by rarity, alphabetical, type, or default, and hide individual affixes by translation key prefix.
Configuration and Installation
All settings live in the config/apothic_tooltip_cleanup-client.toml file. The file regenerates from defaults if you delete it, making it easy to reset. To get started, you need to download Apothic Tooltip Cleanup from a trusted mod repository. The mod is client-side and works with the Forge loader for Minecraft 1.20.1.
How to Install
If you are wondering how to install, the process is straightforward. First, ensure you have Forge for Minecraft 1.20.1 installed. Then, place the downloaded JAR file into your mods folder. Launch the game, and the mod will generate its config file. You can then edit the config to your liking. For those who prefer a more streamlined approach, the foxygame.net launcher offers a one-click install for Apothic Tooltip Cleanup for Minecraft, automatically handling version compatibility and mod placement so you can jump straight into a cleaner UI.
Compatibility and Final Thoughts
Apothic Tooltip Cleanup is a soft dependency on Apotheosis 7.x, meaning it does nothing without it. It optionally supports Apotheotic Additions and Apothic Attributes. The mod is licensed under MIT and was created by Nightwielder23. It is a polished, configurable solution for anyone who finds Apotheosis tooltips too cluttered. Whether you want to see just the top three affixes or hide all the extra lines, this mod puts you in control. Its clean design and thoughtful default settings make it an essential companion for any Apotheosis player on Minecraft 1.20.1.
