The Minecraft main menu and other menus aren't that modern, sleek or beautiful. We can see due to the popularity of menu editor mods and GUI redesign mods and other mod GUIs that the menus leave a lot to be desired. This desire to change the menu and the soon-to-be-released Pixel MK 4 modpack leaves a hole to be filled that was filled with Pixel MK 1 and 2's Voxel Menu mod that was brought over from the Voxel Modpack.
This mod serves as a port/successor to that mod, redesigning the menu and, bringing in modern mod support as well as support for Forge.
Pixel MK Menu currently only changes the Main Menu, Create's main menu (if Create is loaded) and the Pause Menu.
The Main menu has up to 10 buttons, when both Create and Quark are enabled/installed alongside Pixel MK Menu, normally this count is only 8.
As you can see the main menu looks much more sleek and polished. This modernity directly reflects the modpack as a whole and is translated into the modpack using resourcepacks and others. For anyone who doesn't like the menu it can be removed without consequence.
One of the new buttons on the menu is a mute button to mute menu music entirely, the menu music can also be muted using the config to restore the original menu music.
It is also possible to add a modpack definition in the top-left corner to bring a little extra touch to the menu using a JSON file, this will eventually also be extended into an entire button and dynamic screen.
The Buttons added with Quark and Create are built into the mod but any other buttons will have to be added via determination from other mod authors unless requested and approved through the issue tracker.
The pause menu has been redesigned to take up a smaller space of the screen and no longer dims the background meaning that it is easier to see you surroundings when online. The pause menu also has animations associated with it.
