About this Mod
There have been many, many removed beta features through the years.
Today, I have added them back along with a few new features including:
The instant bow shooting, old combat, the rose, seeds from farmland, and much, much more! Coming soon!
Back in Classic - Fabric Version is out!
The mod releases versions for Fabric and Fabric-like loaders including Quilt. Download the QSL to run there!
Hi everyone! As you can see, I have been hard at work on the transfer over to Fabric 1.20+ to keep the mod going!
Forge became a hindrance in my development so all versions going forward will be Fabric and hopefully Quilt!
Now, you all want to know what is in this version, don't you?

Back in Classic server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 4 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.4). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is Back in Classic compatible with fabric and forge and quilt?
Back in Classic officially supports fabric, forge, quilt for Minecraft 1.20.4, 1.20.3, 1.20.2. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with Back in Classic – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 6 GB (per 5 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Back in Classic consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge.
