FacePop

FacePop — Quick Expression Bubble

FacePop is a mod developed based on Minecraft Forge. In Minecraft multiplayer games, you might have encountered situations where you need to say something, but there’s no spare operation to type text to convey information to others, and it’s not convenient to use voice to communicate. Now, this mod provides a way of communication besides typing and voice. Using expressions can allow you to more quickly and conveniently convey the message you want to express to other players.

Introduction

Press the G key to open the main interface of this mod.

Press Ctrl + G to open the expression setting interface.

FacePop, like many other mods, offers data packs for customization and has the most basic management system.

In the expression management system, the basic unit is the expression pack (facebag).

Different expressions are included in the expression pack.

In the customization of the expression pack, there is an attribute, default_unlock, which indicates whether it is unlocked by default.

In addition, this mod has a command to unlock the expression pack for a specified player:

/facepop unlock [player] [facebag]

And one for the command user:

/facepop unlock [facebag]

Data Pack Format Description

The facebag is placed in the data/[modid]/facepop/facebag/ folder.

The textures of Face / FaceBag are uniformly placed in the assets/[modid]/textures/faces/ folder.
