No Dimension Background

by SirBroMate

No Dimension Background removes the animated portal background screen that Minecraft shows when players teleport between dimensions.

What it does

Since version 1.20.5, vanilla shows an animated background while the player travels through a portal. This Fabric mod turns that transition screen off, so teleporting between dimensions shows no extra animation. It is client-side only, so only the player's game needs it, and servers can run without it. Options are set in a config file, and the mod is released under CC0 1.0 Universal, which makes it open source. Builds cover 1.20.5 – 1.21.11, with 1.5.0 for 1.21.11 as the latest file.

Key features

  1. Transition screen removal

    The portal background shown during dimension changes is switched off, leaving the game without the animated screen.

  2. Config file options

    Behaviour is set in a config file, so the transition can be left as vanilla or disabled on the player's side.

  3. Optional config menu

    Cloth Config API and Mod Menu give an in-game settings screen, though Cloth Config API is only recommended.

Questions

Does No Dimension Background need Mod Menu?

No. Mod Menu is an optional dependency that adds a settings screen. The mod itself requires only Fabric Loader and its config file.
