ViaFabricPlus


Fabric mod to connect to EVERY Minecraft server version (Release, Beta, Alpha, Classic, Snapshots, Bedrock) with QoL fixes to the gameplay

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.

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:

Supported Server versions

  • Release (1.0.0 - 1.20 [23w14a])
  • Beta (b1.0 - b1.8.1)
  • Alpha (a1.0.15 - a1.2.6)
  • Classic (c0.0.15 - c0.30 including CPE)
  • Snapshots (3D Shareware, 20w14infinite, Combat Test 8C)
  • Bedrock (1.19.70)
  • Bounding boxes for all versions
  • 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
  • Combat system in <= 1.8
  • Tons of modifications to ViaVersion, ViaAprilFools, ViaLegacy and ViaBedrock to make it more legit (Metadata fixes, broken packets, edge-cases)
  • Visual and screen related changes (newer Command Block features, GameMode selection, ...)
  • Chat signatures (secure login) for all versions (1.19.0, 1.19.1, 1.19.2)

  • Animation related fixes (1.7 Sneaking, c0.30 walking animation, ...)
  • Fixed clientside packet handling (1.16.5 transactions, 1.19.0 tablist, ...)

TODO:

  • More extensions for Classic Protocol Extensions protocol
  • Window click interactions in <= 1.16.5

Backports

Basically there are no backports, the last version of ViaFabricPlus that supported a specific Minecraft version is also the last one that exists for that Minecraft version.
However, if a version between two Minecraft versions is too unstable, I will definitely make backports, you can find them only on modrinth/curseforge,
they do not have their own releases, current backports (named after their branch):

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

Alternatives

  • ClientViaVersion: Discontinued 5zig plugin.
  • multiconnect: Fabric mod for connecting to older versions: down to 1.11 (stable) and 1.8 (experimental).
  • ViaFabric: Client-side and server-side ViaVersion implementation for Fabric

⚠️ 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
