Modded Creative Menu
by cev-api
Modded Creative Menu gives server players a faux-creative browser for custom content defined in installed server datapacks.
What it does
Modded Creative Menu indexes the content that installed server datapacks define and presents it in a paged in-game menu covering items, blocks, mobs and enchanted books. Players can pick an entry and receive it without typing the datapack commands by hand, such as loot or function calls. A live-style command lets operators and admins open the menu on demand.
The mod is built for Paper and Fabric servers. On Paper it ships as a plugin for 1.21.11 and later, developed against Mojmap through Paperweight, and on Fabric as a server mod for 1.21.11 and later, using Mojmap through Loom. Fabric is the only loader listed. The server platforms Paper, Spigot, Bukkit, Purpur and Folia are also named as supported targets. The license is the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and the code is open source, with the source code and issue tracker public.
Files are published for 16 release versions, spanning 1.21 – 26.2. The latest Fabric file is 1.0.1 for 26.2, released on 2026-08-22, after the first publication on 2026-02-28.
Key features
Paged content menu
Custom items, blocks, mobs and enchanted books are arranged across pages for browsing in-game.
Datapack content indexing
The menu reads the content that installed server datapacks define, so new datapack entries appear without extra setup.
Command-free obtaining
Players receive content from the menu, without typing the loot or function commands the datapacks would otherwise need.
Operator live command
A command lets operators and admins open the menu directly, for quick access while managing a server.
