Minecraft 26.2 / 26.3 · Fabric · alpha
Vanilla, only polished.
No new blocks or mobs. A faster game, nicer looks, seven ages of progression and a journal that shows what to do next.
01 / Contents
The game stays as you know it: the same blocks, mobs and biomes. What changes is how it runs and looks, plus some structure: seven ages from wood to post-End, personal goals for your base, and an Epilogue for after the dragon.

02 / Journal
One progress screen, on the J key.
- Tabs per age with progress bars, search, and filters: all, remaining, completed.
- Replaces the built-in advancements screen and its pause-menu button. Hold Shift while opening for the classic view.
- A pin on every quest tracks it: its name, description, a checklist of requirements with counters and a progress bar show in a small panel in the screen corner, even with the journal closed.
- After the Ender Dragon, an Epilogue tab unlocks with 55 goals for the long game.
- If the screen ever fails, the game falls back to the classic view.
03 / Loader
Its own loading screen instead of the Mojang logo.
While the game starts, reloads resources, or saves a world you see a dark screen with the Fancy Vanilla wordmark and a thin progress line. The loader ships inside Fancy Journal, so it is not a separate mod. The game still runs loading and fading; the overlay only draws on top, and if it fails to load you simply get the vanilla screen.
Get the loader on its own (Fancy Journal)
The Fancy Vanilla packs already include it. The standalone file is for your own mod set: needs Fabric Loader and Fabric API, and also brings the journal on the J key.

04 / TEMPERED progression
Seven ages, you do not need to finish everything.
An age unlocks recipes and gear. Progress is shared by the world, also on a server. A part of the current age's quests is enough to advance (the “Threshold” column). Extra goals are optional, personal, give XP, and do not count towards the threshold.
An administrator disables the recipe lock and gear penalties with /function tempered:admin/gate_off. TEMPERED is the author's own mod and takes a single file in the pack.
| Age | Name | Threshold | Optional |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Wood | 6 / 9 | 9 |
| 2 | Stone | 9 / 15 | 9 |
| 3 | Iron | 8 / 13 | 9 |
| 4 | Diamond | 8 / 13 | 9 |
| 5 | Nether | 9 / 14 | 9 |
| 6 | End | 8 / 13 | 9 |
| 7 | Post-End | 8 / 12 | 9 |
06 / Server
The same pack, a small server for friends.
- Players import the same
.mrpackyou do. - Download the server builder and run it on the pack file (Python, Java 25). It downloads only server-side mods and verifies their hashes.
- Read and accept the Minecraft EULA in
eula.txt, then runstart.batorstart.sh.
The starting settings (15 players, view distance 8, simulation 6) are defaults, not measured capacity. Start with a few people and check tick times with spark.
