WhiteScreen
WhiteScreen holds every player on a loading overlay until the whole group is ready, so a server can start an event for everyone at once.
What it does
When an operator starts a session, each connected player sees the same title, progress bar and status text in real time, and nobody enters the world before the others are ready. The overlay is synchronized across the server, which suits hardcore communities and scheduled events where a late player would otherwise miss the start.
Players who join while a session is pending wait in a queue, and staff can hide administrators from the pending players list through a dedicated whitelist. Titles, tips and player limits can be changed live with a full command set, and the settings are stored in a JSON configuration file.
WhiteScreen is published for Fabric and Forge, with builds covering 1.20.1 – 1.21.1. Installation is required on both the client and the server, because the two sides exchange the synchronization data. The license is custom and the code is not open source.

Use cases
Scheduled hardcore starts
A server can hold every player on the overlay until the event begins, so no one starts early or late.
Organized events
Event organizers can use the waiting screen and stealth staff mode to run a start sequence without showing their presence.
Who it’s for: Server owners and event organizers who run synchronized starts for hardcore communities or professional events. Players need the mod too, since it runs on both the client and the server.
