Itematic 0.9.0 Preview 2 for 26.3

13th of October 2026

This preview adds a new data-driven registry for item groups!

Changes

• Added data-driven item groups under the item_group directory in a data pack.

Item Groups

• A new registry for providing items for the Creative inventory.
• Format: A map with fields:
  • name: A text component. The name displayed when hovering over the group, as well as a title in all but the Survival Inventory group.
  • icon: An item stack. The icon to display for the group.
  • entries: An item group entry provider, list of item group entry providers, or hash-prefixed item group entry provider tag. The items to display in the group.

Example:

{
  "entries": "#minecraft:building_blocks",
  "icon": {
    "id": "minecraft:bricks"
  },
  "name": {
    "translate": "itemGroup.buildingBlocks"
  }
}

• You can add your own item groups to the #minecraft:creative_mode_groups tag to display them in the Creative inventory.
• Any additional groups will be displayed on a separate page, and only ten groups from the tag will be displayed at once.
• If no item stacks are available in an item group, it won't display the group and later groups will be moved earlier in the list.
• The following groups are always in the same place:
  • Operator Utilities (minecraft:op_blocks)
  • Search Items (minecraft:search)
  • Saved Hotbars (minecraft:hotbar)
  • Survival Inventory (minecraft:inventory)
• If any of these are removed with a data pack filter, they will no longer display in the Creative inventory.
