Authentic Adventure Lite
by BlueStaggo
Authentic Adventure Lite is a minimal Ornithe port that restores a Beta-style feel, with its main tweaks kept deliberately small.
What it does
The mod reworks world generation toward hillier terrain that resembles Beta, while keeping the layout close to the original Authentic Adventure. Passive mob spawning from the older versions returns, so animals appear in the way earlier releases handled them.
Survival rules change as well. Hunger drains only while sprinting, and starvation is removed, with food healing health directly. Enchantments need only a quarter of their usual level requirement. A classic mode and an extra challenging hardcore mode give players two further ways to play. Client and server both need the mod, and it is released under the MIT License as open source. Its source code and issue tracker are public.

Restored passive mob spawning

Classic and hardcore modes
A classic mode aims for a Beta-like experience, and a hardcore mode adds more challenge.

Use cases

Who it’s for: Players and server owners who want a small set of Beta-inspired changes rather than the full set of options in the larger Authentic Adventure mod.
