    Imagine writing your own Minecraft client that can connect to any 1.12.2 server(including Cuberite)

    Are there minecraft clones that are compatible with minecraft mods? Or would that be a licensing problem with the mods?

      Im not aware of any. Most clones have a very different architecture (and programming language, most clones dont run on the JVM) than Minecraft, even tho some projects go for feature parity and support the original Minecraft multiplayer protocol.

      So, no licencing problem Im aware of, mods are free to be shared under whatever licence and many are FOSS, but a technical problem.

        Thanks a lot for the heads up! The was very informative. I‘ll definitely check it out because I‘m pretty sad how MS treats minecraft these days.

      I think the other response was quite accurate. Different language and architecture makes it harder. There are mods made for minetest that can work with MineClone2, so there may be some stuff you’ll enjoy, but usually they have to specify it’s available for MineClone2. Here is a page if you want to have a look: https://content.minetest.net/packages/Wuzzy/mineclone2/hub/

      Minetest modding is actually quite nice to do from what I’ve heard.
