Past Life

This mod is a one-to-one recreation of Grian's Past Life mod.

If you want to play the other seasons, use my Life Series mod instead.

Join the Life Series discord server if you have any issues or questions.

Since modern modding Fabric is not available for Minecraft Beta and other old versions that Past Life is played on, this mod is made for OrniteMC.

The earliest versions (Beta 1.2_02, Beta 1.7.3 and Release 1.1) have a separate jar file for the client and the server, so make sure to download the correct one you want.

This mod is client-side required in versions Beta 1.2_02, Beta 1.7.3, Release 1.1 and Release 1.4.7. The later versions are only optional.

How to play in versions before 1.14 (after that you can just use Fabric like normal):

Client:

1. Install the https://ornithemc.net installer.
2. Open it, select the client environment, and install the desired version of Minecraft (based on the session you're on). If in mc version beta 1.2_02 or beta 1.7.3: Make sure to select check "Historical Versions" otherwise the beta versions won't show up.
3. Open folder where you installed it, and add the mod jar file to the mods folder.
4. Open the Minecraft launcher, select the Ornithe profile, and run the game.

Server:

1. Install the https://ornithemc.net installer.
2. Open it, select the server environment, and install the desired version of Minecraft (based on the session you're on). If in mc version beta 1.2_02 or beta 1.7.3: Make sure to select check "Historical Versions" otherwise the beta versions won't show up.
3. Open the folder where you installed the server and run the fabric-server-launch.jar file to first start the server.
4. If in minecraft version Beta 1.2_02, Beta 1.7.3 or Release 1.1: Open server.properties and set "online-mode" to false. This is required, as online-mode does NOT work in the oldest versions
5. Add the mod jar file to the mods folder in the server directory.
6. That's it, just run the server (fabric-server-launch.jar) and you're done!

Notes:

When updating the server, make sure you keep the _pastlife_lives.txt file, as that contains the info about players' lives.

This mod does not contain Simple Voice Chat.

This mod (obviously) does not handle updating the world to newer versions, so you're going to have to do that manually (and handle any issues with it).

After updating the skins in the minecraft launcher, it takes a while for the skins to update in the game (like 20 minutes) because of the custom implementation of how skins work, so be patient.

The Boogeyman

Only available in session 2 onwards (so Beta 1.7.3+)

Follow this to enable the Boogeyman in your session:

• An admin must run the /boogeyman choose command, which will randomly select the boogeymen.
• Boogeyman succeeding / failing is not tracked automatically, so the player that is the Boogeyman must run the /boogeyman succeed or /boogeyman fail command to say if they have succeeded or failed.
• They can run that command at any time, but it also sends a public message in chat to prevent any cheating.
• The console also logs the information about who got picked as the Boogeyman, and if they failed or succeeded, so you can also handle any possible cheating with that.

The Secret Society

Only available in session 3 onwards (so Release 1.1+)

Follow this to enable the Secret Society in your session:

• An admin must run the /society begin command, which start the Secret Society with a random word.

• Whether the society succeeds or fails is not tracked automatically, the Members must run the /society success /society fail command.
