provides a "bare minimum" (or at least what I think is bare minimum) of setup for Legends to load a world with your user-defined gamemode
Unlike Bedrock, Legends is currently extremely creator-unfriendly. It doesn't seem to respect development packs & such. You'll
have to place the BP and RP in their respective subdirectories under premium_cache. This is a multi-step process for steam. WinStore may also work:
- place the files under
%APPDATA%\Minecraft Legends\internalStorage\premium_cache - add the pack UUIDs to
%APPDATA%\Minecraft Legends\<some numbers here for Steam>\games\com.mojang\minecraftpe\valid_known_packs.json
There are two things you should worry about:
- pack UUIDs
- the gamemode id.
The gamemode ID is a bit less of a problem. It should be a simple find-and-replace from mod_template to whatever your choice is.
Pack UUIDs obviously should be re-randomized, but they also need to be updated in RP/gamelayer/launcher/game_mode.json, or legends will softlock.
You may also wish to update the icons in RP/dlc_data.
Legends has a bunch of different configurable subsystems (gamelayer), services (services), scripting (scripts_bsharp20), and such.
It will be a while until docs exist. Until then, explore vanilla! It should give you a good sense of what you can accomplish.
This template is configured to use a "flat" world generator, since that allows for the use of a world template (place a world folder under BP/world_template). If you want a normal Legends world, removing that line in RP/game_rules/gamerules.json should be sufficient.
