LegacySneak

by xbudingqwq

LegacySneak brings back the shallow sneak camera from older Minecraft releases while keeping modern collision behavior by default.

What it does

Modern Minecraft lowers the camera noticeably when a player sneaks. LegacySneak limits that movement so the view moves only a little, giving the older feel without altering how normal gameplay behaves. An optional Full Restore setting also brings back the old sneak collision, which lets a player pass through gaps that are half a block shorter than a full block.

The mod offers a choice between smooth instant sneak animations from the classic style and the modern smooth transition when standing up. Because Full Restore allows movement through narrow gaps, it can cause inconsistencies on multiplayer servers, so the option is disabled by default and online use is at the player's own risk. The Fabric Mod Menu is suggested for opening the configuration screen.

LegacySneak is client-side only, so only the player's game needs it and servers run without it. It is published for Fabric and NeoForge, with files for 26.2 only, and is released under the MIT License, which means it is not open source. Required dependencies are listed alongside the files.

Key features

  1. Shallow sneak camera

    The view dips only a little while sneaking, matching the feel of earlier releases.

  2. Modern collision by default

    Sneaking keeps the current collision box, so normal gameplay behaves as it does in recent versions.

  3. Full Restore setting

    An optional setting restores the old sneak collision, letting players pass through narrow gaps.

  4. Instant sneak animations

    Players can switch to snappy classic sneak animations or keep the modern smooth transition.

Questions

Does the server need LegacySneak?

No. Players add it to their own game, and a server needs no copy.

The option is disabled by default. Because it allows passing through narrow gaps, it can cause movement inconsistencies on multiplayer servers, and online use is at the player's own risk.

Which loaders does LegacySneak support?

The mod has files for Fabric and NeoForge, both for 26.2 only.
