Windows 11 Startup

by Anti-Vision

Windows 11 Startup swaps the vanilla Mojang loading screen for a startup screen modeled on Windows 11 when the game launches.

FabricClient-side onlyMIT License1.21 – 26.1.2

What it does

On launch, the loading screen that normally shows Mojang branding is replaced by a Windows 11 style startup screen. The change applies to the client only, so players install it and servers do not need it. Builds are published for Fabric, covering 1.21 – 26.1.2 across 15 release versions, and the code is released under the MIT License, though it is not open source. Installation needs the Fabric API, listed as a required dependency.

Key features

  1. Windows 11 startup screen

    Replaces the default Mojang loading screen with a startup screen styled after Windows 11.

  2. Client-side change

    Affects only the game launch on the player's machine, with no effect on server gameplay.

  3. Credits to KSmc's Team

    The author credits the KSmc's Team in the project text as a special thanks.

Questions

Does Windows 11 Startup need Fabric API?

Yes. Fabric API is listed as a required dependency and must be installed next to the mod on Fabric.

Does the server need Windows 11 Startup?

No. It is installed on the player's side alone, so servers need nothing.
