Hi! Please first select which type of question you want to ask:

  • "Normal Question" is enough for most questions. If you are unsure, you should choose this mode. It provides quick and accurate answers to your questions and problems.
  • "Complex Task" is for very complex questions and multi-step tasks. For example, questions involving complex action script, requirement, or placeholder logic. Normal users will almost never need this. Getting answers takes much longer here.

Ahh gotcha 😕🐛 For a blank Player Entity on the main menu, the first thing I’d check is:

  1. Are you on Minecraft 1.21.1+?
    If yes, FancyMenu’s docs say the Player Entity element needs Fancy Entity Renderer (FER) installed for it to work.

  2. Are you on the latest builds of:

    • FancyMenu
    • Konkrete
    • Melody
    • FER (if you’re on 1.21.1+)
    • your mod loader
    • Fabric API too, if you’re on Fabric
  3. Please send your /logs/latest.log file right after reproducing the issue 🙏
    That log is the important one for debugging this, not a crash log.

Also, if you can, tell me:

  • your Minecraft version
  • mod loader + version
  • FancyMenu version
  • whether FER is installed

If you’re not on the latest builds yet, update those first, then test again with just FancyMenu + its dependencies + FER, and send the log after that.

Gotcha 👍🪲 On 1.20.1, FER is not the required thing according to the docs, that dependency is only mentioned for 1.21.1+.

So if the Player Entity is still blank on 1.20.1, I need your /logs/latest.log first to debug this properly 📄
Please grab it right after you open the menu and see the blank entity, then send it here as a file attachment.

Also, tell me these exact Player Entity settings if you can:

  • Copy Client Player on/off
  • Player Name set or empty
  • any custom skin/cape set or not
  • whether you changed pose/scale stuff

Without the log, I can’t really narrow down why it’s blank 😅

# abstract mulch copy client player, off

Ahh okay, with Copy Client Player = off, the Player Entity needs either:

  • a Player Name set to an actual player, or
  • a custom skin/cape set manually

If both of those are empty, it makes sense that the entity would just show up blank 😅

So please check:

  • Player Name is filled in
  • or set a custom skin/cape
  • or turn Copy Client Player back on if you want your own skin

Also, I can’t inspect the zip file you attached 📦
I can only read Minecraft log files or images, and this is a .zip, so please use the Request Human Help button for that file type.

If you want, send me the exact Player Entity settings for:

  • Player Name
  • custom skin/cape
  • scale/pose

and I can help you narrow it down further 😊

copy client player is on, player name is off custom cape is disabled

# abstract mulch copy client player is on, player name is off custom cape is disabled

Gotcha, if Copy Client Player is on, then the Player Entity should normally mirror your own skin/name/cape 🎮🙂

At this point I need your /logs/latest.log to see what’s actually happening.

Important: I can’t inspect .zip files here, so that attached CurseForge logs archive isn’t something I can read مباشرة 📦
Please do one of these instead:

  • attach the actual latest.log file from /logs/
  • or upload latest.log to a site that turns it into an attachment here

Please grab it right after opening the menu and seeing the blank entity, so the relevant info is at the end of the log.

Without the log, I can’t debug this properly 😅

# abstract mulch is that right

Yep, those Player Entity settings are the right idea for showing your own player ✅🙂

From your log, I don’t see a direct FancyMenu error that explains the blank entity. The warnings in there are about other mods, and they don’t point to the Player Entity specifically.

Since you’re on 1.20.1, FER is not the thing FancyMenu docs call out for this feature, so that’s not the likely issue here.

Next step I’d want you to try:

  • run the game with only FancyMenu + Konkrete + Melody
  • make sure those are the newest versions
  • also make sure your Fabric Loader / Fabric API are up to date
  • test the Player Entity again

If it’s still blank with only those mods, then it’s most likely a FancyMenu bug, and at that point you should report it on FancyMenu’s GitHub with a fresh latest.log grabbed right after reproducing it 📄🐛

If you want, I can also help you check whether the Player Entity settings themselves look correct for a title screen setup.

so i did that and im getting the red box that says I need FER

# abstract mulch so i did that and im getting the red box that says I need FER

Yep, if you’re seeing the red box that says you need FER, that means FancyMenu is currently not detecting the Player Entity renderer properly 😕🧩

But on 1.20.1, that’s a bit weird because the docs only call out FER as required for 1.21.1+. So I don’t want to guess here.

Please send me a fresh latest.log from this exact test setup:

  • FancyMenu
  • Konkrete
  • Melody
  • FER
  • Fabric API / loader

Grab the log right after you open the menu and see that red FER box, so the relevant info is at the end of the file 📄

Once I see that new log, I can tell you whether this is:

  • FER not loading correctly,
  • a version mismatch,
  • or a FancyMenu bug.

If you want, also tell me the exact FER file name/version you installed 👀

# abstract mulch there

Yep, I checked the log, and it shows FER is actually loading, so this doesn’t look like a simple “FER is missing” situation anymore 😕🧩

Because you’re on a minimal setup and the log is clean, the red FER box is most likely a FancyMenu-side bug or a compatibility issue with the Player Entity on your setup.

At this point, please open an issue on FancyMenu’s GitHub and attach this latest.log there 📄🐛

I can’t really help debug it further from here without just guessing.

🙋 | Player entity error

#
Ticket Summary

The user wants to use a Player Entity on their FancyMenu main menu, but it appears blank / shows a red box saying FER is required.

What’s been tried/discussed:

  • They are on Minecraft 1.20.1.
  • They initially had Copy Client Player off, then confirmed it is now on.
  • Player Name is not set, and custom cape is disabled.
  • They tried using FancyMenu + Konkrete + Melody + Fabric API/loader, and also installed Fancy Entity Renderer (FER).
  • A latest.log was checked, but no clear FancyMenu error was found.
  • After testing with the minimal mod setup, the red FER-required box still appeared.

Files/links:

Still unresolved:

  • The Player Entity still does not render correctly, and the cause is unclear.
  • Likely needs a FancyMenu bug report or further compatibility investigation.
