Enchantment Descriptions in All the Mods 10: To the Sky

Same as in the All the Mods 10 8.1 guide

Enchantment Descriptions is a lightweight, client-side mod that adds a short description of each enchantment to the tooltip of an enchanted book. Hover over a book and you can see what the enchantment does without looking it up.^[1]

It supports all the vanilla enchantments in over 13 languages, and most modded enchantments are supported too.^[1]

It's for anyone who wants to know what a book does before using it or spending resources on it. It's a quality-of-life tool, so there's nothing to craft and nothing to unlock.^[1]

In this pack

This pack version ships Enchantment Descriptions 21.1.11, using the NeoForge build for Minecraft 1.21.1. It was first included in an earlier pack release, 2.25 or before.^[2]

Enchantment Descriptions is a light weight, client-side mod. It adds a description of each enchantment to the tooltip of an enchanted book. So the first step is not crafting anything: you just look at the book.^[1]

How to use it

1. Get hold of an enchanted book, then hover over it in your inventory or in a chest.^[1]
2. Read the description added to the tooltip. It explains what the enchantment does, so you don't have to guess or look it up.^[1]
3. Do this before you spend a book on a tool or armour piece, so you know what you are putting on it.^[1]

What the descriptions look like

The mod covers all vanilla enchantments in over 13 languages, and most modded enchantments are supported too. The descriptions come from the mod's own language file, and they are short, plain sentences.^[1][3]

• Thundering: "Attacks strike the target with lightning."^[3]
• Guarding Strike: "Defeating enemies boosts your defence temporarily."^[3]
• Autosmelt: "Breaking a block will smelt it instead."^[3]
• Double jump: "Allows the user to jump twice."^[3]

Unverified Whether the pack's quest book or config files say anything about this mod is not shown in the sources here, so check the quest book chapters and the config folder in the pack yourself.

Enchantment Descriptions is a small, light weight, client-side mod. It has no machines, power or item handling to set up. It does one job: it adds a description of an enchantment to the tooltip of an enchanted book.^[1]

What you see in game

Hover over an enchanted book and the tooltip explains what the enchantment does, so you don't have to look it up. The mod covers all vanilla enchantments in over 13 languages, and most modded enchantments are supported too.^[1]

The descriptions live in the mod's own language file. Each entry is a text key for one enchantment, usually ending in .desc, with a one-line explanation as its value.^[3]

Modded enchantments with descriptions

The language file has entries for enchantments from several other mods, so their books are explained too. These are the enchantment namespaces that appear in the part of the file the sources show:^[3]

• betterarcheology, for example Tunneling, which mines the block below the target block as well.^[3]
• create_sa, for example Digging, which allows the drill to dig a bigger hole.^[3]
• deeperdarker, for example Catalysis, where killing mobs spreads sculk nearby.^[3]
• dungeonsenchantments, for example Weakening, where attacks temporarily weaken the enemy.^[3]
• grapplemod, for example the sliding enchantment, which allows the user to slide using built up momentum.^[3]
• improved_exp, which has by far the most entries, for example Fertilizing, where pressing the Z key will bonemeal nearby blocks.^[3]

Other namespaces in the file include endlessbiomes, gofish and hunterillager. The sources only show part of the file, so this is not a full list.^[3]

All the Mods 10: To the Sky 2.0.4 ships Enchantment Descriptions 21.1.11. The mod has been in the pack since 1.0 or earlier.^[4]

Changes in the mod's own releases

These are the notable changes from the mod's own changelogs, oldest first. This list only covers the changelogs available here, so it is not every release the mod has had.^[5][6][7][8]

• 21.1.7: Fixed build errors. It also changed how descriptions are applied, to improve compatibility with other tooltip mods.^[5]
• 21.1.8: Updated the Brazilian Portuguese localization.^[6]
• 21.1.9: Optimized the mod's images.^[7]
• 21.1.11: Fixed the sweeping edge description in various languages. This is the version in the pack now.^[4][8]

Unverified What changed for this mod between pack releases is not shown here, because the sources contain no pack changelog entries for it. Only the version listed above is confirmed for 2.0.4.
