ChangeGameTitle
ChangeGameTitle lets a player replace the window title of the Minecraft client through a plain JSON file placed in the game directory.
What it does
The title shown in the game window is read from a file named title.json in the game's root directory. A player creates that file, writes the JSON content described by the author, and edits the title value to the text wanted. The change takes effect without changing any game files, so removing the mod or the file returns the window to its default title.
The mod also ships a small set of read-only APIs that other code can call to get information about the running game, including the game time, the Minecraft version, the player name and the current frame rate. The author describes the project as a Fabric mod written in China. Because the change is made by a local file, the mod only needs to be installed on the client, and servers do not have to run it.
Files are published for Fabric alone, for 1.19.4, with version 1.0.0 dated 2023-07-23. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the source code and issue tracker are public.
Key features
Custom window title
The window title is taken from the title value in title.json, so any text can be shown in place of the default.
Plain JSON configuration
The file is written by hand in the game's root directory, and no in-game screen is needed to change the title.
Information API
Other mods can read the game time, Minecraft version, player name and frame rate through the APIs bundled with the mod.
Client-only change
The title is changed on the player's own window, so the mod does not alter how a server or other players see the game.
