A themed way to express your emotions.
Cheerful is a resource-pack that introduces multiple emojis into the game by changing what's already there.
Unicode has thousands of emojis. It's physically impossible to support all of them, but luckily - it's not even needed. See, the majority of existing Unicode emojis are combinations of ones. They use what is called a Zero-Width-Joiner to fuse two characters together into a completely new one. Minecraft, with its limited emoji support, cannot handle any emojis that use the ZWJ.
Therefore, only around a 1000 emojis are actually implementable in the first place.
Note
Cheerful currently supports around 100 of different emojis for all use cases.
A nice way to contribute to the project is, of course, suggesting your own emojis! It helps a lot to understand which emojis are essential, and which ones can be left out.
Since 1000 emojis is an ambitious number, Cheerful keeps track of which emojis are already done ✅
, not done yet ❌
, and are blacklisted ⛔
. Before suggesting your emoji, please take a look at the To-Do list and ensure it's not already done ❌
.
If the emoji you want to suggest is indeed neither blacklisted, nor already done, you can feel free to suggest it in the Workshop. Others can upvote your emoji by reacting to your suggestion with an up-arrow ⬆️
.
Important
Please be aware that your emoji wouldn't automatically be accepted, it might also get blacklisted!
