Minecraft /title Generator

Big text across the screen, with a smaller line under it. Write both, set how long they take to appear and how long they stay, and copy the commands in the order they need to run.

Timing is counted in ticks. Twenty ticks is one second.

How it looks on screen
VICTORY
You survived the night
The commands, in this order
/title @a times 10 70 20
/title @a subtitle [{"text":""},{"text":"You survived the night","color":"gray"}]
/title @a title [{"text":""},{"text":"VICTORY","color":"gold","bold":true}]

Run them in the order shown. The timing has to be set before the title appears, and the subtitle has to be sent before the title, because showing the title is what puts both on screen.

How it works

  • Write your title and subtitle. Click into one first, then click a color to put its code at the cursor.
  • Choose who sees it. @a is everybody on the server.
  • Set the timing in ticks. Twenty ticks is one second, and the tool prints the seconds under each field.
  • Copy all three commands and run them in the order shown. The order is what makes it work.
  • For a message in the chat box instead of across the screen, use the tellraw generator.

The preview draws the title larger than the subtitle, the way the game does, so you can judge how much text fits.

Questions

Why are there three commands?
Because /title does one thing at a time. One sets the timing, one holds the subtitle ready, and one shows the title. Only the last one puts anything on screen.
Does the order matter?
Yes, and it is the thing people get wrong. Set the timing first, or your title uses whatever timing was set last. Send the subtitle before the title, because showing the title is what puts both on screen. A subtitle sent afterwards waits for the next title.
What is a tick?
The game's unit of time. Twenty ticks make one second, so 70 ticks is three and a half seconds. Every timing field here is counted in ticks, and the tool shows the seconds under each one.
Can I show only a subtitle?
Not on its own. A subtitle appears when a title is shown, so if you want just the smaller line, send a title that is an empty string and put your text in the subtitle.
Where do I put these?
Paste them into chat one after another, or put them in a row of command blocks that run in order. Drop the leading slash in a command block.
Do I need to be an operator?
Yes, to run the commands. The players who see the title need nothing.
