modpage_about

Legacy4J is a mod that brings back nostalgia for the old Minecraft Legacy Edition by 4J Studios. The main goal of the project is to completely recreate all aspects of Legacy Console Edition for Java Edition with maximum accuracy, adding exclusive features and adapting them for modern game versions.

The mod includes precise controller support, control tooltips, crafting menu, creative flight, gamma shader, interface scaling, HUD, and much more!

In addition to accurately recreating the original Legacy Edition features, the mod adds additional conveniences such as Resource Albums, Global Packs, World Templates, built-in mods screen, terrain fog settings, and other improvements.
