Splashy
by Darkhax
Splashy gives players control over the splash text shown on the main menu, including the option to turn off vanilla splash texts.
What it does
The mod lets a player decide which splash texts appear on the title screen. Custom entries can be listed in a configuration file and added to the pool, and the vanilla splash texts can be switched off entirely so only custom lines remain. Splash texts added by other installed mods are included in the pool as well, and several examples ship as defaults so the feature can be seen working straight away.
Splashy is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 only. It is client-side only: only the client needs it, and servers and other players do not. Fabric API is required, and files exist for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across the 1.14.4 – 1.20.4 range, with 14.0.5 for 1.20.1 as the latest Fabric and Forge file.

Use cases

Modpack splash lists
A modpack author can ship a fixed set of splash texts and disable the vanilla pool for a consistent look.
Who it’s for: Players who want to shape the title screen and modpack authors who want a custom splash pool. Because the mod is client-side only, the server does not need it.
