Version 1.5.0-mc1.20.1:

Additions

• Dialogues can now contain illustrations, extra visual content that can be positioned anywhere on the screen (thanks Sekoia !)
  • Added 3 default illustration types : in-world entities, fake entities, and items
  • Illustrations can also be added to individual choices, in which case they are positioned relative to the corresponding choice
  • This feature should be considered experimental on 1.20.1, the entity illustrations in particular do not render as well as they do in later versions
• Added Chinese localization (thanks SettingDust and nageih !)

• You can now see a little arrow icon next to the currently selected choice
