FluxMenu

by FelixFGF

FluxMenu replaces the vanilla main menu with smoother animations and modern transitions, and players who want a cleaner start screen can use it without touching the rest of the game.

What it does

The mod redesigns the main menu of Minecraft Java Edition with fluid animations, smooth button hover effects and transitions between screens. The original look of the game is kept, so the interface still reads as vanilla while the navigation feels more responsive. Its focus is menu navigation only, and it leaves gameplay and the core systems of the game unchanged.

FluxMenu is client-side only, so only the player's client needs it and a server can run without it. It is published for Fabric, for 1.21.11 only, and the latest file is 1.0, released on 2026-05-31 on the beta channel. The code is under the MIT License, but the project is not open source. It requires EnvironmentDetector and YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL) to be installed alongside it.

Key features

  1. Animated main menu

    The main menu gains animated backgrounds and transitions that play when the player moves between screens.

  2. Smooth hover effects

    Buttons respond with animated highlights when the cursor moves over them, giving the menu a livelier feel.

  3. Vanilla-style layout

    The layout and visual style stay close to the original menu, with a cleaner arrangement of elements.

  4. Configurable options

    Settings for the menu are exposed through YetAnotherConfigLib, so the player can adjust the effects from the options screen.

Questions

No. The mod is client-side only, so only the player's client needs it, and servers can run without it.

Which game versions does FluxMenu support?
