ViaFabricPlus
Clientside ViaVersion, ViaLegacy, ViaBedrock and ViaAprilFools implementation with clientside fixes for Fabric
This project has nothing to do with the original ViaFabric and is therefore also not compact
Why?
ViaFabricPlus is supposed to be an alternative to multiconnect that offers more compactness and more clientside improvements, as ViaFabricPlus implements all Via platforms (ViaVersion, ViaBackwards, ViaLegacy, ViaAprilFools, ViaBedrock) and adds tons of clientside fixes and QoL improvements like old rendering for all platforms.
Issues and Contributions
If you encounter any issues, please report them on the
issue tracker.
Contributions in the form of pull requests are always welcome, please just stick to my code style and make sure your code is easy to update and compatible with other mods.
Compatibility
ViaFabricPlus is structured to interfere with mods as little as possible. It should work fine with most if not all mods and modpacks.
Known incompatibilities:
Basic Features
- ViaVersion implementation
- ViaBackwards implementation
- ViaLegacy implementation
- ViaAprilFools implementation
- (Beta) ViaBedrock implementation
- BetaCraft implementation for MP Pass
Clientside related Fixes

- Entity interaction and movement related packet fixes
- Sync and async mouse/keyboard handling in <= 1.12.2
- Mining speeds and item attributes
- Filter item creative tabs for only available items

Setting up a Workspace
ViaFabricPlus uses Gradle, to make sure that it is installed properly you can check Gradle's website.
- Clone the repository using
git clone https://github.com/FlorianMichael/ViaFabricPlus. - CD into the local repository.
- Run
./gradlew genSources. - Open the folder as a Gradle project in your preferred IDE.
- Run the mod.
Settings
Settings are optional settings that can turn fixes on and off, originally they were used for debugging
Classic stuff
Custom protocol extensions
ViaFabricPlus implements new Classic Extensions into the CPE protocol of ViaLegacy which are rather client side.
- WeatherType extension (version 1)
Protocol commands
To better control the Classic Protocol, there are a few clientside commands, the command prefix is /v:
- /vhelp - Displays all commands, available from: c0.28-c0.30
- /vsettime <Time (Long)> - Changes the Clientside World Time, available from: c0.28-c0.30
- /vlistextensions - Displays all classic protocol extensions, available in: c0.30 CPE
Addons
There is no real addon base, to create addons you can simply use the event system, which uses Fabric's Event-API.
public class ViaFabricPlusExampleAddon implements ClientModInitializer {
@Override
public void onInitializeClient() {
ChangeProtocolVersionCallback.EVENT.register(protocolVersion -> {
System.out.println("Version changed to " + protocolVersion.getName());
});
}
}
ViaFabricPlus has 7 events at the moment:
| Callback class name | Description |
|---|---|
| ChangeProtocolVersionCallback | Called when the user changes the target version in the screen |
| FinishMinecraftLoadCallback | Called when Minecraft is finished with loading all its components |
| FinishViaLoadingBaseStartupCallback | Called when ViaLoadingBase and Via* is loaded and ready to use |
| InitializeSettingsCallback | Called after the default setting groups are loaded and before the setting config is loaded |
| LoadClassicProtocolExtensionCallback | Called when the classic server sends the protocol extensions (only in c0.30 CPE) |
| PreLoadCallback | Called before everything (Pre-pre load) |
| SkipIdlePacketCallback | Called as soon as the idle packet is skipped in the <= 1.8 |
General API
Get the release version of an material:
final ProtocolRange range = ItemReleaseVersionDefinition.INSTANCE.getItemMap().get(Items.WRITABLE_BOOK); // If an item does not appear in the item map, it has always existed
// The Range class then contains all versions in which the item occurs.
// You can find out how the Range class works in the ViaLoadingBase README.
// https://github.com/FlorianMichael/ViaLoadingBase
Creating own settings for the settings screen:
public class ExampleSettingGroup extends SettingGroup {
public final static ExampleSettingGroup INSTANCE = new ExampleSettingGroup();
public final BooleanSetting test = new BooleanSetting("Test", false);
public ExampleSettingGroup() {
super("Example");
}
}
and then you register the setting group in your onLoad method:
PreLoadCallback.EVENT.register(() -> {
ViaFabricPlus.INSTANCE.getSettingsSystem().addGroup(ExampleSettingGroup.INSTANCE);
});
Implementing classic protocol commands:
public class ExampleCommand implements ICommand {
@Override
public String name() {
return "example";
}
@Override
public String description() {
return null;
}
@Override
public void execute(String[] args) {
}
}
and then you register the command in your onLoad method:
PreLoadCallback.EVENT.register(() -> {
ClassicProtocolCommands.commands.add(new ExampleCommand());
});
Implementing custom classic protocol extensions:
public class ExampleExtensionSupport implements ClientModInitializer {
public static ClientboundPacketsc0_30cpe EXT_CLICK_DISTANCE;
@Override
public void onInitializeClient() {
PreLoadCallback.EVENT.register(() -> {
CustomClassicProtocolExtensions.allowExtension(ClassicProtocolExtension.CLICK_DISTANCE); // Register extension as supported
EXT_CLICK_DISTANCE = CustomClassicProtocolExtensions.createNewPacket(ClassicProtocolExtension.CLICK_DISTANCE, 0x12, (user, buf) -> buf.readShort());
});
FinishViaLoadingBaseStartupCallback.EVENT.register(() -> {
Via.getManager().getProtocolManager().getProtocol(Protocolc0_30toc0_30cpe.class).registerClientbound(EXT_CLICK_DISTANCE, null, new PacketHandlers() {
@Override
protected void register() {
handler(wrapper -> {
wrapper.cancel();
final short distance = wrapper.read(Type.SHORT);
// Do your stuff...
});
}
}, true);
});
}
}
