About this Mod

Works exactly like the Vanilla "Monochrome Logo" setting.

The “Monochrome Logo” setting in Minecraft’s settings menu becomes redundant.

When is this useful?

If your modpack ships with a defaultoptions.txt from KubeJS, the "Monochrome Logo" setting will not apply on the very first launch. This lightweight mod fixes that bug.

To make this mod work:

In:

YourMinecraftInstance\config\fml.toml

Change:

earlyWindowProvider = "fmlearlywindow"

To:

earlyWindowProvider = "blackearlywindow"
