About this project

What does Essential Patcher add?

Important: Essential Patcher is unofficial and may conflict with Essential's terms of use or other platform rules. It does not include Essential or Minecraft code/assets, does not modify Essential's servers, and does not forge purchases or account entitlements. Full legal position: LEGALITY.md.

Essential Patcher

This mod can be put into a modpack even if essential is not installed, it will provide a better experience for the players who later add it.

YOU CAN SEE EACH OTHERS COSMETICS IF BOTH HAVE THE PATCHER BTW

Essential Patcher is a client-side patcher for the Essential mod on Minecraft 1.21.1.

It gives users more control over Essential's local client behavior, including cosmetics, telemetry, ads, purchase prompts, and cosmetic sync between other patcher users.

Features

  • Local cosmetic unlocking
  • Local cosmetic saving
  • Cosmetic sync between Essential Patcher users
  • Telemetry and analytics blocking
  • Ad, promo, and notice removal
  • Purchase prompt and checkout-flow blocking
  • Fixes for some Essential cosmetic sync crashes

How Cosmetic Sync Works

Essential Patcher does not modify Essential's servers or account ownership records.

When two players both use Essential Patcher, the mod can sync selected cosmetic IDs and settings through an independent HTTPS sync service. This lets patcher users see each other's selected cosmetics.

Players who do not use Essential Patcher will not see patched cosmetic sync data.

What This Mod Does Not Do

  • It does not include Essential's code.
  • It does not include Essential's assets, cosmetics, models, textures, or icons.
  • It does not include Minecraft's code or assets.
  • It does not distribute a modified Essential JAR.
  • It does not distribute a modified Minecraft JAR.
  • It does not create Coins.
  • It does not submit fake purchases.
