Modded Creative Menu

ModdedCreativeMenu

Multi-module Gradle project that builds:

• Paper plugin (1.21.11+, Mojmap dev via Paperweight)
• Fabric server mod (1.21.11+, Mojmap via Loom)

Purpose

ModdedCreativeMenu provides a faux-creative browser for custom server content.

• It indexes content defined by installed server datapacks.
• It presents that content in an in-game paged menu (items, blocks, mobs, enchant books).
• It lets players obtain/use that content without manually typing datapack commands like loot or function.

Build

.\gradlew.bat build

Output jars:

• paper/build/libs/moddedcreativemenu-paper-1.0.0.jar
• fabric/build/libs/moddedcreativemenu-fabric-1.0.0.jar

Config

paper/src/main/resources/config.yml

ui:
  ops-linear-pages: false

• Config is reloaded when opening/navigating the menu, so style changes apply live.

• ops-linear-pages: false (default):

  • OPs use category mode with the center category button enabled.

• ops-linear-pages: true:

  • OPs see one continuous page sequence with categories appended in order:
  • Items -> Blocks -> Mobs -> Enchants
  • Middle category button is disabled for OPs in this mode.

Menu Layout

• Bottom-left: Previous page
• Bottom-middle: Change category
• Bottom-right: Next page

Inventory title format:

• `Modded Creative X/Y`

Content Source

• The plugin reads server datapack content from `/datapacks` (folders and zip packs).
• Visuals/icons are rendered by the player's active resource pack.

• In practice, this relies on both:

  • datapack for item/function/enchantment definitions
  • resource pack for custom models/textures
