Experiencing the Dark Souls-Inspired Death Screen
Triggering the Custom Death Screen
DarkMenu replaces the vanilla red-tinted game over interface with a visual sequence inspired by Dark Souls. To see this feature in action:
1. Enter any survival or adventure world.
2. Take lethal damage from mobs, falling, or environmental hazards.
3. When your character's health drops to zero, the game transitions to the Dark Souls-inspired death screen instead of the vanilla layout.
Respawning or Returning to Title
Once the custom death visual appears, you can proceed using the updated interface options:
- Respawn: Click the RPG-styled respawn button to instantly reload at your bed, respawn anchor, or the world spawn point.
- Main Menu: Select the menu button to forfeit the current session and exit back to the dark fantasy title screen.
- In hardcore mode, standard world deletion rules still apply, but the screen will present the death sequence using the mod's atmospheric dark theme before you exit to the menu.
