Markdown has a limit on how many tabs you can add to the top-side of the panel itself, therefore the README needs to be shortend to allow different versions to fit but can look confusing for others.

ViaVersion
How can I install ViaBackwards/ViaRewind?:
- Just drop them into mods folder. Make sure you are using versions compatible with the ViaVersion version you are using.
What versions can ViaVersion, ViaBackwards and ViaRewind translate?:
-
With ViaVersion: Your server can accept newer versions. Your client can connect to older versions.
-
Adding ViaBackwards (and optionally ViaRewind): Your server can accept older versions. Your client can connect to newer versions.

- Check https://ci.viaversion.com/ for development builds with snapshot support
Alternatives
Client-side:
- ClientViaVersion: Discontinued 5zig plugin.
- multiconnect: Discontinued Fabric mod for connecting to older versions: down to 1.11 (stable) and 1.8 (experimental).
- ViaForge: Clientside Implementation of ViaVersion for Forge.
- ViaFabricPlus: Fabric ViaVersion/ViaLegacy/ViaAprilFools/ViaBedrock implementation with client-side fixes.
Server-side:
- ProtocolSupport: Bukkit plugin for older client versions (down to 1.4.7).
- ViaVersion: Plugin for BungeeCord, CraftBukkit, SpongeCommon and Velocity servers.
Standalone proxy:
- DirtMultiversion: Proxy allowing to connect down to Beta 1.3 with newer Minecraft client versions.
- VIAaaS: Standalone ViaVersion proxy with ViaBackwards and ViaRewind, allowing you to connect without a mod installed on your client. Supports online mode.
- ViaProxy: Standalone ViaVersion proxy with ViaBackwards, ViaRewind and ViaLegacy, allowing you to connect to a wide range of versions (down to classic versions) with your modern client (1.7.2+). Supports online mode.
Cool things to try:
- Geyser: Plugins, Fabric mod and a standalone proxy for allowing Bedrock Edition on Java Edition servers.
- PolyMc: Fabric mods which translates modded items and blocks, allowing vanilla to connect using resource packs.
Commands
Commands:
- There're 3 server-side alias
/viaversion,/vvfabricand/viaver, and a client-side command/viafabricclientfor Minecraft 1.14+ (OP permission level 3 is required for these commands, received by Entity Status Packet)
Configs
Configuration:
- ViaVersion configuration is available at
.minecraft/config/viafabric/viaversion.yml - ViaFabric configuration is at
.minecraft/config/viafabric/viafabric.yml
How can I disable client-side ViaFabric?:
- You can disable it in the menu or by setting global protocol version to -1 (this will keep per-server translations still enabled)
How to use protocol detection?:
- For using globally, set the protocol to AUTO or -2. For using in a specific
server:
ddns.example.com._v-2.viafabric - The protocol detector will try to ping with the client native protocol version, differently than multiconnect which uses -1 version, which may detect the native server version.
How can I set the version for specific servers?:
- Append ._v(VERSION).viafabric.
- Examples:
minigame.example.com._v1_8.viafabric,native.example.com._v-1.viafabric,auto.example.com._v-2.viafabric
ViaFabricPlus
Does it work with ViaFabric:
- No, ViaFabric cannot be used with ViaFabricPlus.
Differences with ViaFabricPlus:
| ViaFabric | ViaFabricPlus | |
|---|---|---|
| Can be installed on | Multiple client/server versions with fabric | Latest client-side version with fabric |
| Objectives | Simply implement ViaVersion | Implements ViaVersion with client-side fixes to version changes |
| How does it work? | Modifying packets at network code | Modifying client code more deeply |
| Triggering anti-cheats | Very likely | Mostly not |
Disclaimer
It cannot be guaranteed that this mod is allowed on specific servers as it can possibly cause problems with anti-cheat plugins.
