1. World joining, loading, and reconfiguring screen
This mod fully disables the world loading screen and reconfiguration screen. This may cause a brief/temporary client to server position desync in Vanilla, but will provide a normal-ish experience where you just don't see the loading screen briefly flash on Paper/modded servers.
2. Resource pack loading screen
This mod also drastically reduces the resource pack loading screen duration by simply removing the forced fade-in and fade-out, which will be especially obvious on otherwise fast loading packs.
3. Server switches
Preview (mildly flashing screen) This also happens to fix a Sodium issue of having a 30 seconds long loading terrains screen on Paper servers.
Known incompatibilities
- Feather client
- FastLoad
Original issue (up to and including Minecraft 1.19.2/mod version 1.1.1)
THE TEXT BELOW ONLY APPLIES TO 1.18.2-1.19.2 WITH MOD VERSION 1.1.1
Say goodbye to seeing the world loading screen for 2-5 seconds when joining a server or switching worlds
Since 1.18.2, the client only quits the world loading screen once the chunk it is in has been received... and at least 2 seconds have passed.
By default, the mod fixes that behavior. Additionally, you can also fully get rid of the screen.
This mod also happens to fix an infinite-loading issue with Sodium on Paper servers on join/respawn.
Yeeting the screen entirely
If you want to fully kill the world loading screen, you can toggle a config option (you need modmenu and Cloth Config API for that). Keep in mind this reintroduces a client bug where you can briefly (only visually) fall through the world if your network connection is slow or the server is loading chunks very slowly after a world change.
Here are video comparisons of Vanilla vs. the mod with the instant-close option enabled:
Server joining (1 vs. 3 seconds)
World changing (0 vs. 2 seconds)

Also removes the "Joining World..." screen on world/proxied server switches now. See below for a hot preview
The preview below contains a brief flashing of the world loading / dirt screen appearing, the latter you will see without the mod. If you don't like this behavior anyways and would like to keep the semi-transparent joining world screen (vs. the non-transparent loading world dirt screen), simply keep using version 2.0.0 of this mod.

The mod now also removed the fade-in and fade-out of the resource pack loading screen, which dramatically reduces the duration of the screen, especially for fast loading packs.
You can probably guess which one has the mod and which one does not

The default option properly fixes the screen, which is basically instant if your chunks are loaded fast enough.
If you want to keep using the instant option, feel free to do that anyways.
