Client-side and server-side ViaVersion implementation for Fabric

Allows the connection to/from different Minecraft versions on your Minecraft client/server (LAN worlds too)

This mod supports 1.8.9 (in mc-1.8 branch), 1.14.x/1.15.x (in mc-1.14-1.15 branch) and 1.16.x/snapshots (in mc-1.16 branch) with Fabric Loader. Check the Minecraft version in file name when downloading from CurseForge/GitHub Releases.

Note: ViaVersion is designed for Vanilla Minecraft servers. It probably will not work with modded registry entries or registry synchronization (fabric-registry-sync mod).

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

How can I install ViaBackwards/ViaRewind?:

  • Just drop it into mods folder. Make sure you are using versions compatible with the ViaVersion version you are using. ViaVersion-DEV/ViaBackwards-DEV/ViaRewind-DEV and ViaVersion/ViaBackwards/ViaRewind CI builds are only compatible to each other if they have the same label (-DEV or empty).

What versions can ViaVersion, ViaBackwards and ViaRewind translate?:

  • Server-side: Graph with ViaVersion supported versions

  • Client-side:

Your Client 1.8.x 1.9.x 1.10-1.14.4 1.15.x 1.16.x
1.8.9
1.14.x
1.15.x
1.16.x

✓ = ViaVersion ⟲ = ViaBackwards = ViaRewind

Can ViaVersion, ViaBackwards and ViaRewind support snapshots?:

Commands:

  • There're 3 server-side alias /viaversion, /vvfabric and /viaver, and a client-side command /viafabricclient for Minecraft 1.14+ (OP permission level 3 is required for these commands, received by Entity Status Packet)

Configuration:

  • ViaVersion configuration is available at .minecraft/config/viafabric/viaversion.yml
  • ViaFabric configuration is at .minecraft/config/viafabric/viafabric.yml

Alternatives to this mod:

  • ClientViaVersion: This discontinued client-side plugin for The 5zig Mod implemented ViaVersion, ViaBackwards and ViaRewind for 1.7.10, 1.8.9, 1.12 and 1.12.2 clients, allowing them to connect to 1.7-1.12.2 servers. It also had a protocol translation for 1.7 servers, which there's an updated version at https://github.com/KennyTV/ViaVersion/tree/hack (unsupported).
  • multiconnect: This client-side Fabric mod does also accept older protocols and fixes some differences between versions, which ViaFabric doesn't. Currently, it goes down to 1.10. (2020-06-23)
  • Protocol4: This LiteLoader client-side mod allows your 1.7.10 client to connect to 1.7.x servers.
  • ProtocolSupport: This Bukkit plugin allows clients to connect from older versions (down to 1.4.7).
  • ViaVersion: ViaVersion can run as a plugin for BungeeCord, CraftBukkit, SpongeCommon and Velocity servers.

How can I disable client-side ViaFabric?:

  • You can disable it by resetting the anti-cheat warning in config file or by setting protocol version to -1

Does it work with multiconnect at same time on client?:

  • Yes, ViaFabric can be used with multiconnect. ViaFabric will send to their version auto detector their closest supported version. (multiconnect beta-supported versions (currently 1.10) aren't used)
  • Example of setups:
  • (1.8 server) <-> (disabled ViaFabric) <-> (auto detected 1.8 server - multiconnect) = doesn't work because multiconnect doesn't support it
  • (1.8 server) <-> (forced 1.8 - ViaFabric - suggests 1.11) <-> (detected 1.11 server - multiconnect) = works, ViaVersion translating 1.8 -> 1.11 and multiconnect accepting 1.11
  • (1.8 server) <-> (forced 1.8 - ViaFabric - detected 1.12.2 client) <-> (forced 1.12.2 server - multiconnect) = works, ViaVersion translating 1.8 -> 1.12.2 and multiconnect accepting 1.12.2

WARNING

I cannot guarantee that this mod is allowed on every (or even any) server. This mod may cause problems with anti cheat plugins. USE AT OWN RISK
