Custom Title & Icon

Custom Title & Icon lets a modpack show its own name, version and icon on the game window. Everything is set in one config file, which can also be edited in game.

It is a client-side mod for NeoForge 1.21.1. Servers do not need it, and players with the mod can join servers without it.

Features

Window title

• A title for the menus, one for singleplayer and one for multiplayer
• Variables: {packname}, {packversion}, {mcversion}, {neoforge}, {modcount}, {username}, {world}, {server}, {address} and {modversion:<modid>}
• The server address is only shown when you turn it on, so it does not end up on stream by accident

Window icon

• One square PNG is enough. The mod scales it to 16, 24, 32, 48, 64, 128 and 256 pixels without dark edges around transparent parts.
• Small sizes can be drawn by hand (icon-16.png, icon-24.png, …) and are used instead of the scaled ones
• The icon shows up as soon as the game window is created, in the title bar and on the taskbar

Title bar on Windows

• Light or dark title bar, or follow the Windows app mode (Windows 10 1809 and newer)
• Custom title bar, title text and border colors (Windows 11)

Window

• Taskbar flash when the game finishes loading, or when a server disconnects you while you are in another window
• Initial window size and starting maximized
• Remember the window size, position and maximized state between starts. A window from a monitor that is no longer connected is moved back to the main monitor.

Example config

config/customtitleicon-client.toml:

[pack]
    name = "Example Pack"
    version = "2.1.0"

[title]
    default = "{packname} {packversion}"
    singleplayer = "{packname} {packversion} - {world}"
    multiplayer = "{packname} {packversion} - {server}"
    show_server_address = false

[icon]
    file = "customtitleicon/icon.png"

[titlebar]
    theme = "system"
    caption_color = "#1E1E2E"
    text_color = "#CDD6F4"
    border_color = ""

[window]
    flash_when_loaded = true
    flash_on_disconnect = false
    initial_width = 1600
    initial_height = 900
    start_maximized = false
    remember_size = true

Title, icon and title bar changes apply as soon as the file is saved. Window size settings apply at the next start.

Preparing the icon

1. Make a square PNG with a transparent background, 256x256 or 512x512.
2. Save it as config/customtitleicon/icon.png. The folder is created on first start.
3. Optionally, add hand-drawn icon-16.png, icon-24.png and icon-32.png next to it for a sharp title bar icon at 100%, 150% and 200% display scaling.

Supported systems

A setting that a system does not support is skipped. A wrong value or a broken icon file only logs a warning, the game keeps running with the vanilla behavior.
