# ViaForge Clientside Implementation of ViaVersion for Forge ## Contact If you encounter any issues, please report them on the [issue tracker](https://github.com/FlorianMichael/ViaForge/issues). If you just want to talk or need help with ViaForge feel free to join my [Discord](https://discord.gg/BwWhCHUKDf). ## For users ### Where can I download the latest version? Just take a look at Curse-forge: https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/viaforge ### Can you add new textures and blocks from higher versions? No, because it is too time-consuming ### ViaVersion throws an error, or I can't access a server, what should I do? First of all see if it's because of an installed mod, otherwise come to my Discord and tell me logs, mc version etc. ### Certain collisions or other items bug, can you fix it? No ## For developers ### How does it work? ![](images/via-expl.png) ### Project Structure All ViaForge versions from Minecraft version 1.12 onwards are on the `master` branch.
The names of the submodules indicate the version, they are always given in the format `mc-`.
`Minecraft 1.12.2` - `mc1122` ### ViaForge for Minecraft 1.8 Since ForgeGradle for Minecraft 1.8 is too old, it has its own branch called `legacy-1.8` ### I want ViaForge in my own utility mod Just take a look at our other Project called `ViaMCP`: https://github.com/RejectedVia/ViaMCP-Reborn ## Other Via related Projects ViaFabric - Clientside Via implementation for Fabric: https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/viafabric
