by BrandonItaly

What it does

Templates can be fetched directly from the world selection menu, so a new world built from a template does not require leaving the game or handling ZIP files by hand. The settings of a template can be changed before the world is created, including game mode, difficulty and cheats, through a menu styled after the vanilla settings screen. The mod is client-side only, so no server installation is needed, and it requires Fabric API. Mod Menu is an optional dependency. Files exist for 1.21.11 and 26.1, with the latest 26.1-1.0.1 build for Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt dated 2026-03-26. The code is open source under the MIT License.
