[1.7.10] Adding a Description to Vanilla Items

[DanielDawn]

Hello, thank you for taking the time to read this. I'd like to add short descriptions that work with the language files to vanilla items. So I can list how many hunger bars a food fills and such or add a description to rarities such as diamonds I'd preferably like to add this code in my base class. I'm still new with coding, and have only done basic things. (Ores, Materials, Effect Swords, Effect Helmets, Right Click Special Swords, Increasing maximum stack size for potions, and creating a block that negates fall damage.)

Note that if NEI is running,

ItemTooltipEvent

won't be fired. To modify NEI's tooltips, you need to implement

IContainerTooltipHandler

and register it using

GuiContainerManager.addTooltipHandler

instead.

Thank you for the quick reply. How can I make my message customizable in the lang file? Do I just put item.documentation.line1?

[DanielDawn]

Oh and I do use NEI. So would it not work at all if I was running NEI?

But, I currently use 1.7.10 and find NEI to be very useful.
