Hardcore Revive+ Legacy

by StapleTT

With Hardcore Revive+ Legacy, a player who runs out of lives becomes a ghost that other players can bring back, and the server owner sets how many lives everyone gets.

What it does

Hardcore Revive+ Legacy is a data pack for Minecraft Hardcore mode that replaces the usual single life with a configurable lives system. When a player loses their last life, the player turns into a ghost spectator. Ghosts can generate and load chunks, possess other players and grant them buffs. A fallen player can be brought back by making a Soul Charm and placing it on the ground, and a ghost that touches the charm returns with a set number of lives.

The data pack runs on the server, and server owners control its options: the maximum number of lives (1, 3 or 5), Auto Revive, which brings ghosts back automatically after 10 minutes, and Lifesteal, which gives a life to the player who kills another player. Name colors and the tab list can show each player's remaining lives. The mod is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with the 1.10.2+mod build for 26.1.2 as the latest file, and it covers 15 release versions in 1.21 – 26.1.2.

Key features

  1. Ghost spectator state

    Once a player loses all lives, the player becomes a ghost who can still act in the world.

  2. Soul Charm revives

    A Soul Charm made by crafting can be dropped to bring a fallen player back with a set number of lives.

  3. Life Jam recovery

    Consuming a Life Jam restores a lost life, and the stock can be raised past the normal maximum.

  4. Auto Revive and Lifesteal

    Ghosts can be revived on a timer, and a kill can grant the killer an extra life when Lifesteal is on.

  5. Lives display

    Player names can be colored by lives remaining, and the tab list can show each player's count.

What the author says

Are you tired of standard Minecraft death mechanics? Maybe dying over and over again just to respawn is too easy, or playing Hardcore mode with one life is too difficult. Hardcore Revive+ solves this problem by adding a highly configurable lives system to your Minecraft world that fits all scenarios.
