Re-Console Lite
Re-Console Lite is a streamlined version of Re-Console designed for people who want a more barebones experience, and being built for low end computers, while keeping it simple
Re-Console Lite is a massively debloated version of Re-Console, cutting the modpack down to about ~20 mods and a few resource packs.
It comes with the core features of Re-Console, but lacks some major features, such as:
- Mash-up packs
- OptiFine parity
- Old World Generation
- Tutorial Worlds
📥 Installation Guide
Please be sure to read Sodium's Driver Compatibility section on the wiki before installing Re-Console. It contains some important instructions on preventing crashes and other performance issues.
There are multiple ways to install and experience Re-Console Lite.
Modrinth Launcher (Recommended)
For the easiest possible installation, we recommend using the Modrinth Launcher. It's light, easy to use, reasonably quick, and only takes a few clicks to set up. Once you have it installed, you can install Re-Console Lite by searching for Re-Console Lite in the Modpacks section.
Prism Launcher
Although more complicated, you can install Prism Launcher from their website. Prism is much more versatile and stronger as a launcher, but has a worse GUI. From there, add an instance and search for "Re-Console Lite" in the Modrinth section.
Installing Re-Console Lite on a server
Re-Console Lite also optionally functions server-side! We now use Modrinth's mrpack environment feature to install the proper mods for the correct environment. Client-side mods that are part of Re-Console Lite will not be installed through these methods. The server portion of this modpack was previously known as the Re-Console Server Software.
📦 Install using mrpack-install
Download mrpack-install
through GitHub releases (or your distro's package if it has one) and take a look at the commands on the README. In Re-Console Lite's case, to install in your server you would run:
mrpack-install legacy-minecraft-lite [optional version number]
🐋 Install using Docker Compose
It's a good idea to have some knowledge on using Docker before doing this.
- Make sure you have Docker Engine installed properly according to the Docker docs
- Create a new directory
- Place the contents below in a file called
docker-compose.yml
. This Compose file also contains some other server tweaks meant for performance, such as disablingsync-chunk-writes
, reducing render and simulation distance, and more - Run
docker compose up -d
in that directory
For any other information, you can read through the Docker Minecraft Server documentation.

✨ Install using mcman
mcman is a tool for managing the mods/plugins/configurations of a Minecraft server. First, install mcman from releases. To import Adrenaline while initializing a server, use this command:
mcman init --mrpack mr:legacy-minecraft-lite
After initializing and importing the mrpack, run mcman build
to build the server into the server/
directory, from which you can call cd server && sh start.sh
or cd server && call start.bat
. For more information, check out mcman's docs.
💿 Install using mrpack4server

🐛 How to Report Issues
Please use the issue tracker linked at the top of the page if you are experiencing bugs, crashes, or other issues. Be sure to include necessary information like your hardware/software (such as the GPU, CPU, modpack version, and OS) to help us identify and resolve issues.
✅ Hardware Compatibility
Re-Console Lite, due to utilizing the powerful Sodium mod, is only compatible with graphics cards that support OpenGL 4.5 or newer. Most graphics cards released in the past 12 years will meet these requirements, including the following:
- INTEL HD Graphics 500 Series (Skylake) or newer
- NVIDIA GeForce 400 Series (Fermi) or newer
- AMD Radeon HD 7000 Series (GCN 1) or newer
If you are running into problems, you should make sure that your graphics drivers are up-to-date. I also recommend taking a look at this page on the Sodium wiki.

⭐ Legacy Console Edition accuracy
Re-Console Lite, like Re-Console, seeks to be accurate to an idea of "Legacy Console Edition if it never ended". This means the modpack does not seek to re-create old versions, but rather make LCE in the modern versions. It has titular features of LCE, including the crafting menu, gamma, creative menu and more!
🚀 Major performance improvement
Re-Console Lite is built off and kept in sync with Adrenaline by devin, the performance modpack officially endorsed by Sodium. Re-Console Lite's goal is to significantly improve rendering and game logic performance, along with memory and hardware usage, without compromising on the game's looks or features in any way. Re-Console Lite comes with all the features within Adrenaline, including;
- Improved rendering & game logic performance
- Improved memory and hardware usage
- Improved world generation speed
⚙️ Open Source
Re-Console Lite is comprised of only open-source or source-available mods, which gives you the ability to see the code and contribute to the mods in the pack. Without mod developers hard work, Re-Console would not be possible. If you want to show the developers of these mods your appreciation, I encourage you to donate to them! Re-Console is also available as a packwiz project on GitHub!
📩 Up to Date
Re-Console Lite is usually one of the first modpacks to update in a stable state to new Minecraft versions.
