Add your own creative tabs to the game with a simple JSON config file!
Creating Creative tabs
Each creative tab requires its own JSON file that needs to be placed in the config directory (.../config/cct/).
- icon: The registry name of the item that should be used as its icon.
- enable_search_bar: (Optional) If true, a search bar will be added to the creative tab.
- items: A list of String that is taking registry names of items that will be added to this creative tab.
Note: When using a Minecraft's item, writing minecraft: before the item's id is not required. However, `modid:` is required if an item from another mod is desired.
It is important to note that a creative use a translated text, but they are not included with this mod. An external resource pack is required to replace itemGroup.registryName in the creative menu. registryName is the file's name (excluding the extension).
If you want to generate a JSON file, you can use the new command included with this mod that will take all parameters to make the JSON file for you.
/cct <registryName> <icon> <enableSearchBar> <items> where <registryName> is a simple word for the file's name, <enableSearchBar> is true or false and <items> is the rest of the command and will take all item's registry names that should be added. However, concerning this last one, Minecraft will not display a list as for the icon.
Example
In the following example, the diamond block will be displayed as the icon and a search bar will be included for this creative tab.
{
"icon": "minecraft:diamond_block",
"enable_search_bar": true,
"items": [
"minecraft:dirt",
"minecraft:diamond",
"minecraft:diamond_sword",
"gold_ingot"
]
}
In this second example, the cake is displayed as the icon and the creative tab contains no search bar.
{
"icon": "cake",
"items": [
"cake",
"milk_bucket"
]
}
