Savaru's Curtain

Summary

Hide unfinished terrain behind a smooth fade when joining a world or teleporting, with adjustable timing and optional custom loading artwork.

Description

Let the world arrive before the view does.

Savaru's Curtain covers the game view when you enter a world, change dimensions, or make a detected teleport. It waits for nearby chunks to load and terrain rendering to finish, then smoothly fades back into the game.

A smoother arrival

• Conceal unfinished terrain during world entry and detected teleports.
• Reveal the view with a smooth fade once nearby terrain is ready.
• Set a maximum wait so the curtain can lift even if loading remains incomplete.

Make it fit your modpack

Adjust world-entry and teleport effects separately, including fade durations, minimum hold time, maximum wait, the surrounding chunk radius to check, and the movement distance used to detect teleports.

Prefer artwork to a plain black screen? Use a local PNG or a resource texture, with cover, contain, or stretch fitting. The artwork fades with the curtain.

Settings are available through Mod Menu when installed, or in config/savaru_curtain.json.

Requirements

• Minecraft 1.21.1, Fabric, and Fabric API.
• Client-side only; no server installation is required.
• Mod Menu is optional.

The curtain changes how loading is presented; it does not speed up chunk loading. Teleports are detected from world changes and movement exceeding the configured distance threshold.
