Now with beta mobs and loot tables (zombies now drop feathers)!
No off-hand or recipe book in sight!
Alongside enchanting tables, anvils no longer require XP!
In Beta 1.9 pre-release 3, the portal had a light blue texture and a different texture for both the unlit and lit portal. Because I am unsure how to replicate the textures, I remade the end portal with the old color scheme!
The night sky's stars are the best!
Zombie Pigmen are back, alongside the pre-1.16 nether!
The end looked very different than it does today. The endstone textures were different, and Endermen eyes were green. (Dragon eyes were originally purple to match Endermen, but it has been changed to green).
No XP? No problem! You can now enchant with lapis only!
Full block chests, alpha ore blocks, and much more!
To fit the nostalgic feel, there are three custom textured items (and yes, elytras were originally dragon wings).
Now with sword blocking and spam hitting! Axes have also had their damage reduced.

FAQ:
Q: Why does my world always generate with the same seed?
A: Random seeds provided in-game do not work! To change the seed, open Modern Alpha (or Modern Alpha Plus)/data/minecraft/dimension/overworld.json and update the two "seed" fields to your desired numeric seed! (Pasted from Modern Alpha Plus).
Q: Will you update this mod to X version?
A: Not unless every mod receives an update, or I find alternatives. On the other hand, I may be able to backport to 1.12 using different mods.
Q: Where can I configure the mods?
A: Click on mods at the title screen and click one a mod you wish to configure. Some mods do not have an option to, while others are more complicated. I would suggest looking at the developer's page on how to configure X mod.
Q: Will there be a Fabric port?
A: Yes, I plan on creating a modpack for Fabric in the future.
If I failed to mention any resource packs or missed any textures, sounds, item names, etc., please let me know and I will give proper credit!
To do: edit some vanilla crafting recipes
