Work in progress Minecraft client for 1.8.9. Built for the Legacy Fabric mod loader.
(TODO: Screenshots)
- Account Switcher (WIP - waiting for API access).
- Modifying the game title.
- Camera tweak options.
- Disable view bobbing for the camera/hand separately.
- Minimal view bobbing reduces the amount of bobbing.
- Disable hurt cam.
- Hide the crosshair in third person.
- Fullbright toggle.
- Keybind to stop rendering entities.
- Screenshot manager to copy/delete/open after they are taken.
- Scrollable item tooltips when hovering.
- Cleaning up the title screen.
- Removing the splash text.
- Removing the broken Realms button.
- Removing the language change button.
- Disabling the Snooper (telemetry).
- Originally, I was unaware of the option to disable it in vanilla. However, I have kept this feature in the client as it returns all calls to the Snooper to prevent any data being sent. This is enabled by default.
- Changing the startup logo.
- This can be done with resource packs, however the plan is to make it easier for users to simply choose an image from their computer without having to make a resource pack.
- Zoom key (defaults to C).
- Modifies the FOV (temporarily) to make the camera appear to be closer.
- Multiplayer direct connect status pinger.
- Shows the status of the server IP entered in the Direct Connect multiplayer menu.
- Customizable Discord presence (currently through language files, very limited).
- Better language system than Fabric provides.
- Language files will be stored in TOML, and are loaded at mod runtime.
- These files can be edited in-game the same as module settings will be able to.
- The selected language will synchronize with Minecraft's language setting.
- Prevent rendering of certain particles and particle multipliers.
- Customizable chat box - resizable, movable, custom chat tabs, etc.
- Raw mouse input - attempts to reduce the time it takes to retrieve mouse movement.
- AutoGG, AutoTip (Hypixel), etc.
- Cloud height and removal.
- Removable fog.
- User interface to change settings.
- Preventing chunks from unloading if the old render distance is less than the new distance.
- Showing capes (and maybe more) from other clients (you still need to buy them from the original client).
- Better keybind system (including fixing perspective key when bound to a mouse button).
- Ability to turn off / customize volume of certain sounds.
- Scrollable tooltips prevent a lot of mouse clicks from being registered.
