NoChangeTheGame
by Cecer
NoChangeTheGame reverts several modern combat and movement changes on the client, and it is meant for use on the Hypixel server.
What it does
On the client, the mod reverts several behaviour changes made in later Minecraft versions that many PvP players dislike. It removes the blocking delay that high latency causes, disables the enderpearl cooldown, hides held shields and the offhand hotbar slot, turns off the interpolation of head movements, and stops automatic sneaking in low height areas. It also hides the portal background textures shown when switching dimensions or worlds.
Some of these changes can be applied through settings that override vanilla values by sending packets rather than by changing the client alone. The author states that the mod is designed for use only on Hypixel. A safety feature can be turned off in the config, though the author recommends keeping it on.
The mod is client-side only, so only the client needs it. It requires Cloth Config API, Fabric API and Fabric Language Kotlin, and Mod Menu is optional. Files target Fabric for 1.20.4 – 1.21.1, and the latest file is 1.1.0 for 1.21.1, published on 2024-07-15. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the author, Cecer, publishes the source code and an issue tracker.
