Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

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.

No Crawling (+old crouch/sneak behaviour)

A mod that disables crawling (added in release 1.14) and prevents crouching/sneaking under 1,5 block spaces. Also prevents swimming in 1 block tall spaces (as a side-effect: crawling is the same as swimming so they both get disabled)

Why?

For those who want to recreate the feel of older versions
