Ale_256's custom window title
by Ale_256
Ale_256's custom window title lets a player set the text shown in the game window's title bar.
What it does
The mod changes the window title to a custom one that the player chooses. It runs on the client alone, so only the client needs it and servers can run without it. Fabric is the only loader with files, and Fabric API is required alongside it. Builds cover 1.21.1 – 26.3, with 1.1.0 for 26.3 as the latest file from 2026-10-03, released under the MIT License but not open source.

Title Changer also runs on Forge and NeoForge across 1.20.1 – 26.3, but its license is All rights reserved and it is not open source.
