[1.16.4] Displaying differend HeldItemTooltip

[Guest]

I want the HUD to render something different from the DisplayName of the focused item in the hotbar.

I was guessing, this had to be done within the RenderGameOverlayEvent but could not find a way to do it. Can someone give me a suggestion on how to achieve this without changing the item?

use PlayerEntity#displayClientMessage and set the second parameter to true,
note: only the ClientPlayerEntity has an working implemention of this methode
