Hi,

I want to add to my mod a book with custom text inside it.
Like a book and quill that has text in it.

So it would be an item (ex: Book01) that already contains text when taken from the creative inventory.

I cannot find any up to date tutorial.

Does anyone know how to achieve this or point me in the right direction.

So nobody knows how to spawn a book with written text ?

if you want a vanilla book and quill, just with prepared text, that just NBT attached to an itemstack. itemstack has getOrCreateTag method. use it to get the tag, then add data into it.

if you want pictures, etc. it's best that you use existing mods as a dependency/library. for example guidebook mod (looks best, a little iffy when you change gui size) or patchouli (i don't like the visuals - too "computery" - but it's quite robust).

Thank you
