Fancy Menu Mod FAQ

Press the keybind assigned to Fancy Menu (default is usually a key like Right Shift, but check your controls) while on any menu screen, or click the Fancy Menu button that appears in the corner. This opens the editor overlay where you can start moving and adding elements.

Yes, Fancy Menu can edit almost any screen, including those added by other mods. Just open the editor while that screen is visible and it should be listed as an editable menu.

In the editor, add a new button element, then set its action to 'Open Link' and paste the URL. You can also set it to run a command or send a chat message instead.

Make sure the image file is in the correct folder (usually the mod's config or a 'fancymenu' folder) and that the path in the editor matches exactly. Also check that no other element is covering it or that the background isn't set to a different screen.

Use the 'Conditions' tab for that element. You can add requirements like a specific screen being open, a certain mod being loaded, or a variable value, and the element will only show when those are met.

Yes, Fancy Menu supports animated images like GIFs. Just add an image element and select your GIF file; it will play automatically in the menu.

In the editor, go to the menu's settings and set a custom sound file for that screen. You can assign different tracks to different menus, and they will play when that screen is open.

You probably didn't save the layout. Always click the save button in the editor before closing it, and make sure the layout is assigned to the correct screen.

Fancy Menu is client-side, so it works on any server as long as the server allows client mods. It is generally compatible with other mods, but if another mod also edits menus, you may need to adjust load order or disable one of them.

It has minimal impact on performance, but using many high-resolution images, GIFs, or complex animations can increase memory usage and cause slight lag on lower-end systems. Keep your custom elements optimized if you notice slowdowns.

It lets you redesign your Minecraft menus entirely in-game without editing files. You can move, resize, hide, or add buttons, place text and images, change backgrounds and music, and set conditions for when elements appear.

Open the editor on the screen you want to change, select the button you want to adjust, and drag it to reposition or use the visibility toggle to hide it. Changes are saved per-screen, so you can customize each menu separately.

In the editor, add a new button element, then set its action to open a URL and paste the link you want. You can also set actions like running a command or sending a chat message.

Yes. In the editor, add an image element and point it to a file on your computer. Animated GIFs are supported, so you can use them as decorations or animated backgrounds.

Select the background option in the editor and choose between a single image, a slideshow, or an animation. You can set a different background for each screen.

In the editor, open the audio settings for that screen and assign a music file or sound event. Each menu can have its own track, so the title screen and in-game menus can sound different.

Conditions let an element only show when certain rules are met, like a specific day, a mod being loaded, or the player having a certain item. You add a condition to an element in the editor and it will appear or disappear based on that rule.

Yes, it can customize menus added by other mods as well as vanilla ones. Some heavily modified or custom-rendered screens may not be fully editable, but most standard menus work.

You can toggle the mod off in its config or disable it from your mod loader's mod list. If you only want to revert one screen, open the editor and reset that screen's layout instead of disabling the whole mod.
