About this project

What does Prologue add?

Prologue is a world-based intro system for Minecraft modpacks that triggers a fully customizable cinematic or scripted sequence when a player loads into a world for the first time. Perfect for immersive modpacks, story-driven adventures, or games with rich lore, Prologue sets the stage before gameplay even begins.

Features:

  • Plays a configurable intro when entering a world for the first time

  • Supports cutscenes, scripted camera movement, narration, visual effects, and more

  • Config-driven: define intro behavior per world, modpack, or player

  • Seamlessly integrates with lore mods, spawn scenarios, or cinematic worldgen

  • Optional skip behavior for repeat players or debug mode

  • Lightweight and compatible with other client-side mods

Whether players wake in a cryo chamber, rise from the ashes of a ruined civilization, or experience a vision from the past—Prologue brings your story to life the moment their world begins.
