AccessSaves

by WhyJan

AccessSaves gives the world selection screen a button that opens the saves folder in the file manager.

FabricClient-side onlyMIT License1.21.8 – 1.21.11

What it does

Players who want to reach their world files without navigating the game directory can use a button that opens the saves folder directly. The button follows vanilla styling, so it sits alongside the existing controls. The mod runs on the client alone, so only the player's installation needs it, and it needs the extra libraries installed beside Fabric API. Builds cover 1.21.8 and 1.21.11, released under the MIT License and not open source.

Key features

  1. Saves folder button

    A button on the world selection screen opens the folder that holds every saved world.

  2. Vanilla-style design

    The button is drawn in the same style as the game's own buttons, so it blends into the menu.

  3. Client-only install

    Servers do not need the mod, since it only adds a button to the player's own menu.

How it compares

Full comparison

Screenshot Folder Button also opens a folder from the game, but it is built for Fabric 1.19.2 – 1.19.3 and is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only. Rype's Profiles is client-side too, with All rights reserved and files for 1.21.11 only, so it covers the same version as AccessSaves but adds profile handling instead of a folder shortcut.
