When I was developing my modpack I needed an intro in the beginning, so I found this mod. After some testing and messing around I couldn't get it to show more than ~180 frames, it would just fade out no matter what I tweaked. So, I came up with this thing, that fixes the thing, at the expense of another thing 0_0.
What changed?
Pros: Animation time increased(tested up to 600 frames).
Cons: Frame time can no longer be adjusted, the framerate is fixed
SplashAnimation is a lightweight utility mod that lets you play a custom animation right at the start of the game, smoothly transitioning into the loading screen.
Features:
Displays an animation as the game begins to load
Doesn’t impact loading speed — and can even make it feel faster by keeping users entertained
Offers config options to fit your modpack
Usage : It's recommended to follow the tutorial to get started
Add your animation frames as images: animation/000.png, animation/001.png, and so on, depending on how many frames you need
Customize the behavior by editing config/splashanimation.cfg
That’s it — launch the game and enjoy!
