LeviLamina VS Geyser

I was forced to go with a native version since most of my friends didn't even have a Xbox account or forgot the password and Geyser requires that so I ended up going with LiteLoaderBDS

LiteLoaderBDS is an unofficial plugin loader that provides basic modding support for BDS, with convenient APIs, lots of utilities and powerful script support. Writing plugins in C++, JavaScript(NodeJs), Lua, C#, Python(WIP) and other languages, which allows developers to easily extend and customize BDS functionality.
