Main Menu Credits — Minecraft Java Edition 1.18.2–26.1+

When developing their own modification builds (modpacks), authors often run into the problem of branding. Vanilla Minecraft has no convenient way to leave a developer signature or add a link to the build's Discord server without tampering with the code or creating complex resource packs to replace the logo. If you are looking for a way to add your own text to the Minecraft main menu, Main Menu Credits is worth a look. It is a compact utility that elegantly solves the personalization problem by adding customizable text to the game's start screen.

Core functionality and interactivity

The modification specializes exclusively in changing the Title Screen and offers the following capabilities:

• Displaying credits: Adds a custom line of text in the bottom-right or bottom-left corner of the screen. This tool is usually used to indicate authorship (for example, "Modpack by [Your Name]").

• Clickable links: The add-on supports the vanilla JSON Text Components formatting system. This means the text can contain a ClickEvent. Players can click your text to automatically open the modpack page in a browser or instantly join the community Discord server.

• Visual feedback: For an intuitive interface, the engine recognizes clickable elements. When a player hovers the cursor over such text, it is automatically underlined, imitating the standard behavior of hyperlinks in the game's chat.

Configuration flexibility

The main audience of this project is build creators, so the configuration process is made as simple as possible by editing a single configuration file in the config folder:

• JSON formatting: Thanks to the use of standard Minecraft syntax, the modpack developer can freely change the font color (for example, make it gold or red) and add tooltips (HoverEvents) that appear when hovering the cursor over the text.

• Lightweight and stable: The mod does not change the rendering of vanilla buttons and does not try to completely rewrite the menu screen (as the heavyweight FancyMenu does). It performs only one simple function, which is why it works as stably as possible and does not conflict with other interface mods.

Conclusion

Main Menu Credits is a specific tool for content creators. For ordinary solo survival it makes little sense, but if you are creating a build for a public multiplayer server or for release on platforms like Modrinth or CurseForge, this mod is absolutely essential. It lets you brand your work professionally and gives players convenient, quick access to your external resources.
