About this project

What does Legacy Patch add?

With Minecraft aging more and more, sometimes some mods can suddenly stop working (notably mods that require an internet connection to download some assets).

Due to the age of the Minecraft version and the mods, the original authors no longer provide support, which is reasonable of them.

A note to mod developers

This mod is in no way meant as a way to shame you into providing support on older MC versions.

I object to people asking developers to support years old versions of the game, considering the huge amount of effort that needs to go into getting a development environment set up.

Instead, this mod is here as a courtesy to provide small fixes where it might otherwise be impossible to fix these in the original mod anymore.

If one of your mods gets support added by this mod, adding it as a required dependency on CurseForge would enhance the player experience for those that still play old versions for whatever reason, without too much effort on your part.

Mod requests

If you have a request for a mod which no longer works properly to be added, submit a request on GitHub. Pull requests adding support are also appreciated!
