About this Mod

Server Banner

Customize any server in Minecraft's multiplayer list with your own banners.

Server Banner allows you to assign custom images to any server entry, making your server list more personal, organized, and visually appealing.

Features

Add custom banners to any server.
Supports static and animated banners.
Animation is powered by sprite atlases.
Multiple scaling modes for improved animation quality and detail.
Works entirely on the client.
No server-side installation required.
Compatible with any Minecraft server.

How It Works

Select a server in your multiplayer list and assign a custom banner image. If the image is a sprite atlas, Server Banner can automatically play it as an animation.

The banner is displayed directly in the server list, allowing you to create unique server entries with custom artwork, branding, or animated effects.

Client-Side Only

This mod is completely client-side.

Servers do not need to install anything, and the banners are only visible to players who have Server Banner installed.

Supported Formats

PNG images
Sprite atlas animations
Multiple animation scale options

Frequently Asked Questions

Custom Server Banners server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.21.11). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Custom Server Banners compatible with fabric?

Custom Server Banners officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.21.11. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Custom Server Banners – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Custom Server Banners consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
