Classic mechanics is a datapack I've made into my passion project recently! The goal of this datapack is to re-insert older features, tweaks and mechanics of the game into modern minecraft, this includes various things from beta, alpha, infdev, indev, classic, early release, snapshots, april fools versions, etc.
The datapack comes with 'modules' - each one is a different tweak/feature/mechanic, all of them are toggle-able/configurable at any time and are only ever active if enabled, to preserve game performance.
Remember that all modules are _disabled by default_! To enable them you must type in the command for the options/config message (listed below)
You can also use _presets_ to mass enable several modules at once!
The options message contains a button you can click to see which modules are enabled/disabled, aswell as all modules, with the minecraft versions they were added and removed on
Config/Options message command:
``` /function classic_mechanics:options_message ``` If you're on classic mechanics version v1. 17. 0 or above you can also use the short version: ``` /function cm:opt ```
This datapack was greatly inspired by (https://modrinth.com/mod/nostalgic-tweaks) and (https://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/mapping-and-modding-java-edition/minecraft-mods/1275907-olddays-nbxlite-spawnhuman-ssp-sspc)! Go check them out aswell!
### Also check out the auto-preset-enabler!
The Classic Mechanics Auto-Preset-Enabler is a datapack & mod that automatically enables a selected preset when loading a world/server. You can (https://modrinth.com/datapack/classic-mechanics-auto-preset-enabler)
This is a great feature for anyone planning on creating a modpack with this project!

This datapack aims to be compatible with several other types of datapacks, meaning, it purposefully does not touch things like world/terrain generation and actively tries other, different methods for results that would require such a thing!
2. This datapack and all other work I've put out is fully public property. You can freely edit/modify/tweak/remake/copy/add to your modpack/add to your own pack/etc, anything you wish! <3
