Arcanus: Legacy is being discontinued

There's a new version that I've decided is going to be the version going forward. It was originally a separate project so people could still have old school Arcanus, but I don't have any interest in maintaining it.

You can find the new Arcanus here.

Arcanus is a magic mod with a magic system inspired by Wynncraft and Electroblob's Wizardry, along with new trinkets, structures, and threats sometime SoonTM in future updates.

To get started, you want to find yourself a Library (Village or Stronghold), or a Ruined Portal. Village Libraries have a guaranteed Spell Book, the rest are up to chance.

When you find a Spell Book, all you have to do is read it to learn that spell, and you are now able to cast it using the left and right mouse buttons to create the pattern defined in the book.

You can also use /spells list at any time to see all the spells, as well as their patterns, that you know.

How to install Arcanus: Legacy

With Millida Launcher

  1. Install Millida Launcher

    The launcher is free: download it at millida.net/launcher and sign in with any nickname.

  2. Click “Install” on this page

    The launcher opens and installs the mod for Minecraft 1.18.2–1.20.1 on Fabric or Quilt automatically.

  3. Launch the game

    A profile with it appears in the launcher: click “Play”.

Manually

  1. Install Fabric or Quilt

    The loader must match the game version of the mod file, for example Minecraft 1.20.1. After installing it, a separate profile appears in your launcher.

  2. Download the file for your version

    In the version list above, pick the file arcanus-legacy-2.1.0.jar (675 KB) for your game version and loader.

  3. Put it in the mods folder

    The folder is inside .minecraft (Windows: %appdata%\.minecraft\mods). If it does not exist, create it.

  4. Launch the loader profile

    Open “Mods” in the main menu: Arcanus: Legacy should be in the list.

Minecraft 1.20.1 runs on Java 17: with a different Java version the game may close right after launch.
