Description
Classic Alpha: A Bygone Era
Classic Alpha adds a whole new dimension to modern Minecraft, built to look and feel like the game did in its Classic, Indev, Infdev, Alpha and early Beta days.
Getting there
Hidden in the Overworld are rare 7×7 mossy cobblestone shrines. Each one holds an unlit classic obsidian portal and a chest with flint and steel inside. Light the portal and step through into A Bygone Era, and you get an achievement for it.
The world
- Old-style plains with hills, classic oak trees, roses, dandelions, cyan roses and reeds.
- Plain oceans and rivers with no beaches, and squids in the water.
- Classic stone all the way down to bedrock, with old-style ores in caves and mineshafts built from classic planks.
- The old blue Indev sky, flat clouds, fog that closes in at 128 blocks, and Beta’s dark void fog near bedrock.
- The sun rises in the north and sets in the south, like it used to. (very obscure addition BUT TO MAKE IT ACCURATE)
- Classic textures.
Things to find
- Classic villages with classic blocks.
- They’re home to Old Villagers with 1.12 skins and old-style trading and breeding, and the odd “TESTIFICATE” as an easter egg.
- Brick pyramids, abandoned villages and Indev houses.
- Old roofless dungeons with zombie spawners.
- Endless 1×1 glass pillars running from bedrock to the sky.
- Mysterious leafless forests: bare, leafless trees.
- The Infdev obsidian walls, crossing at 0,0.
- Very rare locked Steve Co. Supply Crates.
Mobs
- Classic animals: cows, pigs and chickens. 1 in 100 is “possessed”, with glowing white eyes.
- Humans: wandering Steves that never stop moving or jumping.
- Classic hostiles: zombies, skeletons, creepers and spiders that come out in the dark.
- Indev mobs from the Rana mod: Rana, Steve, Black Steve and Beast Boy. You make them yourself by combining a gear with an ore, and they guard you like iron golems.
- Zombie pigmen: they come from the nether reactor.
Old features brought back
- Pocket Edition nether reactor: build the pattern, activate it, and a netherrack spire rises around you while waves of pigmen and loot pour out.
- Classic swords: right-click to block, and no attack cooldown. Turn any sword into a classic one in a stonecutter, and it keeps its enchantments.
- Pre-1.8 chainmail: crafted from Fire.
- Pocket Edition camera: hit it and it takes a screenshot.
- And more: rubies in place of emeralds, the classic sponge, classic iron, gold and diamond blocks, the stonecutter, the Workbench, classic doors and furnaces, and classic lava.
Requirements: Minecraft 26.2, Fabric Loader, Fabric API and GeckoLib.
Small Chance to have animals that spawn "Herobrineified"....
