Old not bad
by DimonTV33
Old not bad is a Forge adventure mod for 1.20.1 that brings older versions of Minecraft content into the game as new items and a summonable boss.
What it does
Old not bad adds special items with two kinds of icon and a Continuum Portal item. The portal is used to summon a new boss in a space-time continuum, and the summon needs the portal placed on the ground. A dimension appears while a player is inside it and disappears once the player leaves. The mod runs on the server alone, so players join without installing it.
Its files target 1.20.1 only, the latest being 1.0.3 from 2025-05-25. The mod is released under the MIT License and is not open source. Public links exist for its issue tracker, and it was first published on 2025-01-07.
