That looks like a video rendering failure, not a normal image issue 😕

It could be related to these existing reports:

• Game intro video shows purple/black missing-texture squares
• Video background replaced by strange placeholder textures
• FancyMenu thinks WaterMedia failed even though it loaded the video
• Video use in game intro/splash causing problems

Please do these two things first:

1. Make sure you’re on the latest builds of FancyMenu, Watermedia V3, Watermedia Binaries V3, and your mod loader.
2. Send your /logs/latest.log file, grabbed immediately after the missing texture appears.

Without that log, I can’t narrow this down properly.

Got it, your log shows the actual issue, and it’s not a FancyMenu intro setting problem 😕

Problem found:
Your WaterMedia Binaries are outdated and don’t match WaterMedia itself.

• WaterMedia: 3.0.0.17
• WaterMedia Binaries: 3.0.0-rc.1

That mismatch is why the intro video fails and shows a missing texture.

Do this first:

1. Update WaterMedia Binaries to the exact matching version: 3.0.0.17
2. Delete this cache folder:
   C:\Users\Sonof\AppData\Local\Temp\watermedia
3. Restart Minecraft and test the intro again

If it still shows a missing texture after that, send me a fresh latest.log grabbed right after testing again 🫡

watermedia binaries does not seem to have a 3.0.0.17 version, ive checked both modrinth and curseforge

[fringe island]

Yep, that means the problem is version mismatch on the WaterMedia side, not your FancyMenu setup 😕

Your log shows:

• WaterMedia: 3.0.0.17
• WaterMedia Binaries: 3.0.0-rc.1

So FancyMenu can’t load the video engine properly, which is why the intro shows a missing texture.

If there is no matching WaterMedia Binaries build for 3.0.0.17, then this cannot be fixed locally.
In that case you have only these options:

1. Wait for a matching WaterMedia Binaries release
2. Use a non-video intro instead for now, like AFMA/FMA or APNG/GIF

If you want, I can help you check which intro format is the safest fallback for your setup 🤝

no what im saying is that a waermedia binaries version 3.0.0.17 literally does not exist at all. im not talking about just in my mod folder. neither the curseforge nor modrinth pages of watermedia binaries has a version 3.0.0.17 available to download

[fringe island]

You’re right, I misunderstood that part 😕
If WaterMedia Binaries 3.0.0.17 doesn’t exist publicly, then the issue is simply that your installed WaterMedia core and WaterMedia Binaries don’t match.

Your log still shows this clearly:

• WaterMedia: 3.0.0.17
• WaterMedia Binaries: 3.0.0-rc.1

So the intro video is failing because the video engine can’t load properly, which makes FancyMenu fall back to a missing texture.

What you can do:

1. Use a matching WaterMedia + WaterMedia Binaries pair
   • If there is no binaries release for 3.0.0.17, then your WaterMedia version is too new for the available binaries.
2. Downgrade WaterMedia to a version that matches the binaries release you can actually download
   • Or wait for a matching binaries release
3. Use AFMA/FMA or APNG/GIF for the intro instead, if you need something working right now

So the short version is: this is a WaterMedia version compatibility issue, not a FancyMenu intro setting issue 🤝

I have the same problem... Any version i combine gives me mod loading errors and the only one that worked gave me this missing texture
