About this Mod

Fabric Loading Window

One thing I find really annoying is that the Minecraft splash screen doesn't open for a while after the game is launched, making it hard to determine what's going on without the console open. This dead-simple mod fixes that by showing an AWT loading screen until the game finishes initializing.

Due to a limitation imposed by the operating system, this mod does not work on Mac.

Frequently Asked Questions

Loading Window 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 (1.20.4). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Loading Window compatible with fabric?

Loading Window officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.20.4, 1.20.3, 1.20.2. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Loading Window – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Loading Window 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.
