DynamicUI

by voolt29

DynamicUI changes how the Minecraft interface looks and moves, adding animated menus and button behavior on Fabric.

What it does

DynamicUI reworks the game's GUI screens with animated transitions, so buttons react with custom hover effects and smooth motion. Players who want a different look for menus can switch these animations on through the mod. Only the client needs it, and servers run without it. Installation needs Fabric, and the files target 1.21.5 only, released as version 1.0 under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Animated menus

    Screens and menus play custom animations when they open, giving the interface a smoother appearance.

  2. Hover effects on buttons

    Buttons respond to the cursor with custom hover effects and motion, and category labels reflect their function.

  3. Language compatibility notes

    With other languages, special buttons can show incorrect color highlighting or layout issues, so the author lists this as a known limitation.

What the author says

Buttons now respond with custom animations, hover effects, and smooth motion that reflect their function and category. Using other languages may lead to incorrect color highlighting or layout issues with special buttons.
