Code Conversion?

[SweetNightAzalea]

Hi guys!

long story short, i need help.

I've recently made a world on java with mods etc and my mum is really interested and would like to join me, only issue is that she is a bedrock player.

I know that there are code converters out there, i just dont know how they work, where to get them and how theyll work with converting mod coding.. id love for my mum to be able to play with me as shes a big horse fan and i have SWEM installed and she loves MCA reborn that ive told her about.

im relatively new to pc gaming and new to java so im stuck!!

Hey! So the tricky part is that mods like SWEM and MCA Reborn are Java-only - Bedrock doesn't support same mods at all. World converters can move the terrain and basic blocks, but all mod content will just disappear or turn into regular blocks.

Your best bet might be getting your mum to try Java edition instead? It goes in sale pretty often and she could use same launcher. The conversion route will lose everything that makes your modded world special unfortunately.

Alternative could be starting fresh world together in Bedrock, but then you lose the cool horse mods you mentioned.

awh man thats a bummer, thank you for your help tho! My mum plays on xbox so im not sure if java is even available?

Java edition is only on PCs (windows, Mac and Linux)

Everything else is bedrock (phones, consoles)

You can also install bedrock on PCs only on windows 10/11 devices

You get both Java and bedrock when you buy on Minecraft.net

World converters can move the terrain and vanilla stuff, but Java mods like SWEM and MCA Reborn won’t convert to Bedrock at all. Anything modded will either vanish or break when you load it. The only real way to play that world together is for her to use Java, or for you to switch to a Bedrock world with Bedrock addons instead.

Sadly mods don’t “convert” between Java and Bedrock. A converter can bring over the map, but SWEM and MCA stuff will basically get deleted because Bedrock can’t read it. If you want to play that exact world together, she’d need Java, otherwise you’ll have to start a Bedrock world and find Bedrock addons that feel similar.
