¶ FancyMenu in Modpacks
Including your FancyMenu setup in a modpack is very easy and only takes some simple steps.
This page is ONLY for FancyMenu setups made completely in FancyMenu v3+, so if you use a legacy setup (made in v2 and converted to v3), some steps could be different.
¶ Including the FancyMenu Setup in Your Modpack
You simply need to include FancyMenu's config folder, that's all.
- Navigate to the root directory of the Minecraft instance you made your layouts in.
- Open the
configfolder of the Minecraft instance. - Copy the
fancymenufolder of theconfigfolder to your desktop. - Navigate to the
configfolder of the modpack instance. - If there is already a
fancymenufolder in theconfigfolder, delete the existingfancymenufolder. - Move the
fancymenufolder on your desktop to theconfigfolder of the modpack instance.
That's it. Nothing more you need to do.
Please keep in mind that old legacy setups made in FancyMenu v2 (even if converted to v3) allowed you to store layout assets outside FancyMenu's
/config/fancymenu/assets/folder, so in that case you need to make sure you also include all of your assets in the modpack.
¶ Disabling the Menu Bar and Hotkeys
You surely don't want to keep FancyMenu's menu bar visible in your modpack, so you should disable it. But since people can still press the hotkey to make it visible again, let's do something a little bit more aggressive.
Navigate to /config/fancymenu/options.txt and open the file in a text editor.
Now set modpack_mode to true and save the file.
This will completely disable all overlays and hotkeys.
To be able to edit your layouts again, set the config option back to false.
¶ Disabling the Welcome Screen
This shouldn't be needed in most cases, but if you didn't close the Welcome screen yet (the screen that tells you to read the documentation), make sure to set show_welcome_screen to false in /config/fancymenu/options.txt.
The screen only shows once and disables itself when clicking on the Open Documentation button, so again, doing this manually shouldn't be needed in most cases.
