A library mod for client-side mods. Contains most of the common/shared code of masa's client mods, and adds some inter-operation support between the dependent mods.
Description
MaLiLib is a library mod for client-side mods, containing most of the shared code between the dependent mods.
For example it contains all the configuration options and serialization, a powerful keybind system, most of the Screen/GUI code and a bunch of other miscellaneous utility classes and methods for the mods that are built around MaLiLib.
(The name is short for masa's Litemod Library because I have zero imagination...
The mod was initially created for the 1.12.x LiteLoader versions of masa's client mods.)
Mods that require MaLiLib
MaLiLib is required by all of masa's client-side mods, starting from the indicated versions:
Item Scroller - 0.14.0 and later
Litematica - for any builds starting from around 2018-06-11
MiniHUD - 0.17.0 and later
TellMe - 0.6.1 and later
Tweakeroo - 0.8.0 and later
There are also a number of other client-side mods by other authors that are built around MaLiLib. The mod project/description usually indicates which mod(s) are required as a dependency.
Mod Versions
Make sure to download the correct mod version for your Minecraft version and mod loader from the Versions page!!
Note: There are both Fabric and Forge versions of the mod! Look at the tagged mod loader or the file name to get the correct version of the mod for your mod loader!
The file name always indicates the mod loader (for example Fabric vs. Forge) and the Minecraft version.
The file name is in the format:
malilib---.jar
For example:
malilib-fabric-1.19.2-0.13.0.jar
The required version of malilib for each mod version may be indicated in the changelog of each of the dependent mods. But basically you want to get the version of all the mods that were the latest released version at the given time, to avoid version mismatches.
This would mostly become more tricky to figure out if you for some reason want to use certain older mod versions than the latest available version for a given MC version. Especially the 0.9.x and 0.10.x version era of MaLiLib for MC 1.12.2 and 1.14.x and 1.15.x (and maybe also 1.16.x still?) were kinda volatile for version compatibility. Also the releases based on the code rewrites, starting from MaLiLib 0.50.0 and going until the eventual 1.0.0 release change lots of things between versions, so getting all the mods from the same release date is crucial.
ABOUT THIS LISTING
This page describes MaLiLib by masa. The description and screenshots are the author's own, imported from their listing on Modrinth on 3 October 2026: https://modrinth.com/mod/malilib
Mythiq.net hosts no files for it. The download button goes straight to the release file on cdn.modrinth.com, so you are downloading from the author's own host, not from a copy of ours.
The download count, rating and comments on this page start at zero and count Mythiq.net only. The source's own figures are not copied here — they measure a different site, and a number that cannot be checked against our own ledger is not worth printing.
Requirements
Game version
26.3
MOD LOADER
This release is built for Fabric. A mod built for one loader will not load under another — Fabric mods do not run on Forge, and vice versa.
GAME VERSION
Built for Minecraft 26.3. Minecraft mods are tied to an exact version: a 1.21.4 build will refuse to load on 1.21.5.
THIS IS A LIBRARY
On its own it adds nothing you can see. It is here because other mods require it, and installing it is usually something another mod asked you to do.
DEPENDENCIES
Check the author's listing for required libraries before you start the game — a missing dependency shows up as a crash on launch, not as a warning.
Installation
1. Install Fabric for the Minecraft version you play, if you have not already.
2. Download the .jar with the button on this page. Do not unzip it — a mod jar is installed as it is.
4. Launch the game with the Fabric profile selected.
ON A SERVER
Anything that changes world generation or gameplay has to be installed on the server as well as on every client. Client-side visual and interface mods do not.
UPDATING
Replace the old .jar rather than adding the new one beside it. Two versions of the same mod in the folder is a crash on launch.
This release downloads from cdn.modrinth.com, not from us, so
there is no checksum to compare against. Scan the archive before you unpack it.
Tell us if something is wrong — a file that will not work, content taken from
someone else, or anything that looks unsafe. Reports go to our review team, not
to the author.
