WorldDownloaderLegacy
by Nixuge
WorldDownloaderLegacy is a Forge utility for backing up Minecraft worlds into archives, ported to the 1.8.9 and 1.9.4 releases.
What it does
The mod lets a player make backups that archive a Minecraft world. It is a legacy Forge mod that runs on the client alone, so only the player's game needs it and servers are unaffected. Files exist for two game versions, 1.8.9 and 1.9.4, with 1.0.0 for 1.9.4 as the latest Forge file, published on 2023-06-30. The mod is released under a custom license and is not open source.

What the author says
This is a port of a project made by Pokechu22 (mainainer) & other contributors. This port was intended to run on Forge 1.8.9, but I ended up doing: 1.9.4-liteloader -> 1.9.4-forge -> 1.8.9 forge, so there's also a 1.9.4 version available. I'll maybe eventually port 1.12.2.
