unknownLegacy Cross Play
Any questions, need help? Join the server!
CURRENTLY, THE ORIGINAL LEGACY CLIENT IS BROKEN, USE THIS ONE
This project allows Legacy Console Edition clients to join a vanilla 1.8 Java Edition server!
How to Install
Code modifications, or server plugins ARE NOT required!
- Install NodeJS, you may need to restart your computer after
- Start a localhost Java Edition server running on port 25564, and in offline mode (you can edit these in
server.properties) - Run the file
install_dependencies.bat, - you only need to run this file one time. - Run
start.bat, the Java Edition server will appear in the join tab on Legacy Console Edition! You can configure the server IP / PORT inconstants.js.
Known issues, will be fixed
- Chunk lighting is always based on sky light (no lighting data)
