Re-Console
A continued Legacy Console Edition experience, expanded upon with modern Java Edition content and QoL! (An Official Legacy4J Project)
Quick answer
Which Re-Console release matches Forge?
RC 26.1.0 (Forge) is a complete pack release for 1.20.1 with Forge 47.4.13. Install it as its own launcher instance. If the creator publishes a separate server file, make sure it names this exact pack release. 53 mods in this pack file.
Pack setup
How should I set up Re-Console for players and a server?
Use RC 26.1.0 (Forge) as the pack version. Install the pack as its own launcher instance. The creator’s listing does not name a separate server file, so check the release notes before setting up a dedicated server. Do not upload the ordinary client folder blindly.
A pack is a matched client and server setup, not one mod with an install-side label. Keep its release, loader, manifest and overrides together.
These numbers come from the pack file you chose. “Not labelled” means we don’t know which side it belongs on—not that it is safe everywhere. The file count is not a RAM estimate.
What are the server requirements for Re-Console?
RC 26.1.0 (Forge) on Forge. The pack contents and setup notes below stay tied to that release.
The selected pack release is RC 26.1.0 (Forge). That file is for Minecraft 1.20.1 with Forge 47.4.13. It contains 53 mod projects. The creator’s listing does not name a separate server file. Check their notes before using one, and do not upload an ordinary client folder or rebuild the pack mod by mod. A file count cannot tell us the right RAM, CPU or storage; size the server for the players and world you actually run.

All the Bells and Whistles...*
Thanks to mods such as Legacy4J and Minimega, everything from the washed-out (if desired) gamma, easy to navigate crafting interface, and controller input, to the Texture Packs, Skin Packs, Mash-Up Worlds and Mini Games, are all accessible right out of the box!
As of Re-Console+ 26.x, Re-Console even now features proper Limited World Generation!
As of writing, features contributing to the "complete experience" (i.e. working tutorial system and console-style global achievements) are already under development for Re-Console+.
Don't worry, the features mentioned above are 100% playable!
...and much more!
On top of these fundamental LCE features, Re-Console also adds plenty of custom Texture Packs, OptiFine features such as Better Grass, dynamic lighting and built-in shader packs, Bedrock-style bridging, and more!
Nice and Speedy!
With the help of some of Minecraft's best optimization mods, we've been able to squeeze out performance that far exceeds what the vanilla game gives you, and maintains the "Always 60FPS" vision of LCE (though with considerably more frames than that)
At times, Re-Console can even match, or exceed dedicated Performance Modpacks, as it utilizes its own unique performance stack!
Updates, people... Updates!
Whenever a major functional part of the modpack is updates, whether it be a resource pack or gameplay mod, we ready ourselves to do the same. Though, not everything will be guaranteed an update within the pack if it breaks functionality, so our update strategy is quick and simple, yet remains methodical.
Built-in SMP!
Re-Console comes built in with the Re-Console SMP, our officially run Survival Multiplayer Server, with an active community and active updates!
Free and Open Source!
Re-Console is comprised of only open-source or source-available mods, which gives you the ability to see the code and contribute to the mods in the pack. The modpack is also available on Codeberg as a packwiz project.
Re-Console LTS!
Modern Re-Console is a significant evolution from the initial Re-Console. However, we still continue to maintain those original versions with bug-fixes, occasional feature backports, and other features from modern Re-Console+ versions.
For more information on LTS, you can read our LTS page on our Documentation!
