Which Minecraft do you have?

Every version of the game needs its own build. Pick yours, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game. This mod is built for Fabric only.

Minecraft 1.21.11Newest
Minecraft 1.21.6–1.21.7
Minecraft 1.21.4–1.21.5

⬇ Download for 1.21.11 ⬇ Download for 1.21.6–1.21.7 ⬇ Download for 1.21.4–1.21.5

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

Normal1.8zer

Based on NoChangeTheGame by Cecer, but minified & up to date

Compatibility tool for 1.8 servers that support joining on the latest versions of Minecraft (such as Hypixel).

Hypixel has recently added sword blocking on vanilla 1.21.4+, removing the need for a lot of changes in NoChangeTheGame.

To reflect on that change, I've created this mod which uses much of the same code as NoChangeTheGame, but with a heavy reliance on Animatium (https://modrinth.com/mod/animatium) for the rest of the features.

Big thanks to Cecer for making the original mod, & big thanks to the Animatium team for their work. This mod should work on any 1.8-based server which added 1.21.4 support & sword blocking, but this mod is primarily made for use on Hypixel

What does this mod modify?

This mod modifies:

Swimming (disabled)
Crawling (disabled)
Sneaking (Hitbox reverted back to <=1.8 & MC-159163 fix)
Sprinting (Sprint Resetting readded on 1.21.5+)
Buckets (reverted back to <=1.12.2)
Beds (no bounce)

The following changes make the general experience much better & less buggy, allowing for smoother gameplay on the latest versions

You can access the mod's config via /normalizerconfig or ModMenu if you have it installed.
