What it does

Pause Screen Tweaks changes how the pause menu is drawn, bringing back the layout of the classic legacy pause screen while keeping features from the current game. Only the client needs the mod, so a player can install it alone and still join servers that do not run it. Files are published for Fabric only, for game version 26.2, and the code is under All rights reserved with no open-source license.

Key features

  1. Legacy pause layout

    The pause screen returns to the arrangement of the classic game, with the familiar placement of its buttons.

  2. Cleaner nostalgic look

    The menu presents its options in a tidier, more organized arrangement than the standard pause screen.

  3. Modern buttons kept

    Newer buttons from the current game remain available inside the restyled menu, so no options are lost.
