CMM
CMM lets a modpack author rebuild the Minecraft main menu from a simple JSON file, changing its layout, content and positions almost entirely.
What it does
CMM is a Forge mod for Minecraft 1.20.1 that replaces the vanilla title screen with a menu defined in JSON. Through that file, element positions, text and most other content can be changed, and new entries such as slideshows, web links and entirely new sub-screens can be added. The mod was originally made by Lumien231 for the 1.20.1 version.
The mod is built for modpack makers and server owners who want a branded start screen. The server and every player need the mod installed. It is published only for Forge, and the single game version covered is 1.20.1. The latest Forge file is 3.0.0 for 1.20.1, released on 2026-08-16, and the code is distributed under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Several supporting tools are included, among them a text-to-logo generator for creating stylized titles on websites, and a way to fetch a player's skin head or avatar from a URL. Those URL features can be used together with a web service that returns user images. The author also asks that issues be checked on the project's GitHub before a new report is opened.
