FancyMenu Scene Renderer
by LaMalditaG
FancyMenu Scene Renderer lets menu designers place 3D scenes built from blocks, entities and models inside FancyMenu's custom UI.
What it does
Scenes are defined in a JSON file, stored in FancyMenu's config folder, and rendered in a FancyMenu screen. Each scene can be rotated, scaled and translated from the editor, and its parameters can be animated with placeholders. Entities, 3D models and particles can all appear in the rendered scene.
A scene can be created in the world with a command. The first argument sets one corner of the scene, the second argument sets the opposite corner, and an optional third argument can be added. The command writes the scene file, so the result can then be edited. The mod is client-side only and requires FancyMenu. It is released under the MIT License and is open source, for Fabric builds on 1.20.1 with the 1.0.1 file as the latest release.
Key features
Entity rendering
Entities can be drawn inside a scene, so menu backgrounds can show living figures rather than static blocks.
3D models and particles
Custom 3D models and particle effects can be included in a scene to build a richer background.
Editable scene layout
Scenes can be rotated, scaled and translated in the editor, and their parameters can be animated using placeholders.
Block-based scenes from the world
A command selects a region in the world and generates a scene file from the blocks inside it.

Who it’s for: Menu designers and modpack authors who already use FancyMenu and want animated 3D scenes in their custom screens.
