Starshadow Modlist

★ Starshadow Menu

Your mods, beautifully organized.

Starshadow Menu replaces the default mod list with a clean, modern screen that makes browsing your installed mods a pleasure. Search, filter, view details, and jump straight into any mod's config — all from one place.

"Finally, a mod list that doesn't feel like a spreadsheet."


🪄 How It Works

  1. Install the mod and launch Minecraft
  2. Click "Mods" on the title screen or pause menu — a new button appears automatically
  3. Browse your mods in a clean, scrollable list with search
  4. Click any mod to see its details, links, and config button
  5. Open config screens with a single click — no more hunting through Mod Menu

That's it. A better mod list, instantly.
