Usage

How to Use Custom Window Title Mod

The Custom Window Title mod provides a straightforward yet powerful way to personalize your Minecraft window. This guide covers basic configuration, advanced features, and troubleshooting tips.

Basic Configuration

Accessing the Configuration: Press F7 (default key, can be changed in controls settings) while in-game to open the configuration screen
Setting a Basic Title: In the "Window Title" field, enter your desired window title text (e.g., "My Minecraft Adventure")
Applying Changes: Click "Save" to apply your changes immediately
Restoring Default: Click "Reset to Default" to revert to the original Minecraft window title

Using Dynamic Variables

The mod supports various dynamic variables that update in real-time. Insert these variables in your window title to display changing information:

%player% - Displays your player name
%world% - Shows the current world or server name
%fps% - Shows your current frames per second
%coords% - Displays your current X, Y, Z coordinates
%biome% - Shows the biome you're currently in
%time% - Displays the in-game time
%date% - Shows the real-world date
%memory% - Displays current memory usage
%ping% - Shows server ping (when on a server)

Example: Minecraft - %player% in %world% at %coords% (%fps% FPS)

Changing the Window Icon

Preparing Icons: Create PNG images in 16x16, 32x32, or 64x64 pixel dimensions (the mod supports multiple resolutions for different display contexts)
Adding Icons: Place your icon files in .minecraft/config/customwindowtitle/icons/ (the folder will be created after first launch)
Selecting an Icon: In the mod configuration screen, click "Browse Icons" and select your icon from the dropdown list
Applying the Icon: Click "Save" to apply the selected icon to your Minecraft window

Creating and Managing Profiles

Creating a Profile: Configure your desired title and icon, then click "Save as Profile"
Naming Profiles: Enter a descriptive name for your profile (e.g., "Survival Mode", "Creative Building", "Server Play")
Switching Profiles: Select a profile from the "Profiles" dropdown menu and click "Load Profile" to apply its settings
Deleting Profiles: Select a profile and click "Delete Profile" to remove it from the list
Automatic Profile Switching: Enable "Auto Switch" to automatically change profiles based on game context (e.g., different profiles for different servers)

Advanced Configuration

Update Frequency: Adjust how often dynamic variables update (higher frequency = more accurate but slightly higher performance impact)
Conditional Formatting: Use the conditional format editor to change title appearance based on game states (e.g., red text when health is low)
Custom Variables: Define your own variables using the custom variable editor for specialized information display
Keyboard Shortcut: Rebind the configuration key in Minecraft's control settings under "Custom Window Title" category

Pro Tip: Content creators can use this mod to display different information during recordings or streams. Create a "Recording Profile" that shows minimal information in the window title to avoid cluttering your capture, and a "Personal Profile" with more detailed information for when you're playing off-camera.
