EMI++

EMI++ is an addon for EMI, adding a variety of useful features, improvements, and customization options to enhance your recipe viewing experience!

Features

EMI++ provides the following enhancements:

• Stack Grouping: Cleans up the EMI item list by grouping related items together (e.g., keeping all colored wools in one expandable entry).
• Creative Mode Tabs: Displays vanilla and modded Creative Mode tabs directly within the EMI interface for easy browsing.
• Vanilla/Modern Theme: A unique visual theme for the sidebar, dependent on the EMI theme.

Configuration

EMI++ offers extensive configuration options to tweak the interface to your needs. You can configure the mod via the in-game config screen with YACL installed or by editing the configuration file directly.

Customizing Stack Groups

You can define new custom stack groups or modify existing ones using standard JSON files.

EMI++ loads stack groups from the config/emixx/stack_groups directory. For example, to create a custom group, create a JSON file in config/emixx/stack_groups/my_group.json.

JSON Structure:

Example: Creating a shiny things group (standard list)

{
  "id": "mypack:shiny_things",
  "type": "emixx:group",
  "contents": [
    "minecraft:diamond",
    "minecraft:emerald",
    "minecraft:gold_ingot",
    "#c:glass_blocks"
  ],
  "exclusions": [
    "minecraft:purple_stained_glass"
  ]
}

Example: Creating a group using Regex

You can use the "emixx:regex" type to dynamically group items based on their naming patterns. The example below groups all items that end in _sword (from any namespace):

{
  "id": "mypack:swords",
  "type": "emixx:regex",
  "regex": ".*:.*_sword",
  "name": "Swords"
}

Virtual Objects (Fluids, Modifiers, etc.):

EMI++ also supports grouping non-item objects such as Fluids, JEED effects, etc. To do this, prefix the entry with its EMI registry type using the format <type>:<namespace>:<path>.

Example: Creating a special group

{
  "id": "mypack:basic_fluids",
  "name": "mypack.stack_group.basic_fluids",
  "type": "emixx:group",
  "contents": [
    "fluid:minecraft:water",
    "fluid:minecraft:lava",
    "jeed:effect:minecraft:speed"
  ]
}

Disabling Default Groups

All stack groups are easily togglable using the in-game config screen, in the Stack Groups category.

To disable a default stack group, you can also override its definition. Create a file with the same path/ID as the default group and set "enabled": false.

Example: Disabling the spawn eggs group

File: config/emixx/stack_groups/spawn_eggs.json

{
  "enabled": false
}
