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.

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
