Quick Switch (S,W)
Quick Switch lets players move between singleplayer worlds and multiplayer servers straight from the pause menu, without returning to the title screen.
What it does
Without the mod, switching worlds or entering a server means leaving the game, waiting on the title screen to reload, and clicking through a chain of menus. Quick Switch adds options to the pause menu so a world or server can be picked there in a few clicks, which keeps the game running in the same session.
The mod suits players who often move between favorite worlds and servers, for example when alternating creative building with survival play alongside friends. It is client-side only, so only the player's game needs it and the server can run without it. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with builds for 26.1.2 and 26.2 and 1.5.0 for 26.2 as the latest file. The license is the MIT License, and the mod is not open source.
Key features
Singleplayer switching
Saved singleplayer worlds can be opened directly from the pause menu without going through the title screen.
Direct server joining
Multiplayer servers can be joined from the pause menu, so the title screen is never reached on the way.
Favorite worlds and servers
Frequently used worlds and servers can be kept at hand for quick access from the pause menu.
Vanilla-style interface
The added options are styled to match Minecraft's own menus and sit inside the existing pause screen.

Use cases
Alternating worlds
A player who builds in a creative world and plays survival with friends can change between them without leaving the session.
Frequent server hopping
Players who regularly visit several multiplayer servers can move between them from the pause menu.
Who it’s for: Players who often switch between several singleplayer worlds and multiplayer servers and want fewer menu steps. Server owners need nothing, since the mod runs on the client alone.
How it compares
Better menu buttons is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and is client-side only for 26.2. Server list in pause menu is client-side only under the MIT License, is published for Fabric alone, and covers 1.21.11 – 26.2. Quick Switch targets the pause menu for world and server switching, so it addresses a different task from either of these.
