Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on the mod after installing it?
Better Screens Mod works automatically once installed—there's no activation step needed. Open your inventory or any chest to see the mod is active; you can then access settings through your mod configuration menu or in-game options.
Why does my chat keep closing when a minigame starts on my server?
This is the forced-closing behavior that Better Screens Mod prevents. Enable the 'Stop Forced Closing' feature in the mod settings, and your chat and open menus will stay open even when server events trigger.
Can I make the dark overlay behind menus completely invisible?
Yes—the mod lets you adjust the background opacity slider all the way to fully transparent, so you can see the world behind your chest or inventory while it's open.
How do I change the color of chest labels and container names?
Go to the mod's color customization settings and select the text color option for chest labels; you can then pick any color you want for how container names appear on your screen.
