ViaBackwards

On Fabric, use either ViaFabric or ViaFabricPlus. To override the included version

  • in ViaFabric, put ViaBackwards into the mods folder
  • in ViaFabricPlus, put ViaBackwards into the ViaFabricPlus/jars folder

Depending on the platform and version, this also requires ViaVersion.

Requires Java 17. See here how to update your installed Java version. As a last resort, you can download Java 8 downgraded builds from our ci.

Get access to Via* with new MC version support early

Starting with 1.20.5, ViaVersion and ViaBackwards will only be released a day or so after a Minecraft update unless the protocol changes of the update were trivial. If you want early-access, usually days or even weeks before the final release, you can subscribe to either:

  • GitHub Sponsors (preferred option, also comes with source code access. Use the /verify command on this Discord after), or alternatively
  • Patreon (see the highest tier and make sure to link Patreon to your Discord account under Discord Settings->Connections)

Note on release channels

It is recommended to always use the latest beta release. Alpha builds are used for work on snapshot version compatibility or other cutting-edge changes.

Always use the same build channel across the ViaVersion, ViaBackwards, and ViaRewind projects.

Releases/Dev Builds

You can find releases in the following places:

Dev builds for all of our projects are on our Jenkins server:

Known issues

  • New items and entities now show their names as translatable components instead of string text and can be changed via resource packs
    • Entities use vb.entity.<type>, e.g. vb.entity.sulfur_cube, which falls back to 26.2 Sulfur Cube as before. entitynames has been removed from mapping files
    • Items use vb.item.<type>, e.g. vb.item.sulfur, which falls back to 26.2 Sulfur as before. itemnames has been removed from mapping files
    • Custom model data for new items has been moved to custom_model_data in the mapping files and starts at 0 for the first 1.13 item, going upwards across every protocol (currently ending at 937). 1.21.4+ clients have their original item identifier added to the custom_model_data string list, and all client versions have the custom model data from the mapping files added (either to the new float list or the old single-int tag)
  • On 1.21.5+ servers, handling of items sent by the client now mostly skips from 1.20.4 to 1.21.5 to avoid heavy item reading and transformation code
    • If your server is on a version between 1.20.5 and 1.21.4, it is highly recommended you update to 1.21.5 or higher
  • Fixed multi-line text displays in 1.19.4->1.19.3
  • Fixed disconnects when using new environment attributes in custom dimensions
  • Fixed invisible beds in 26.2->26.1 (by booky10)
  • Fixed code of conduct writing in 1.21.9->1.21.7
  • Fixed baby happy ghast scale in 1.21.6->1.21.5 and baby squid and dolphin scale in 1.21.2->1.21 (by mfishma)
  • Fixed creative mode inventory clear action in 1.21.2->1.21
  • Fixed 1.20.1 disconnect from new 26.2 sulfur cube archetype registry (by EnZaXD)
  • Fixed 1.13->1.12 comparator mapping
  • Fixed console warning about invalid sulfur_cubes legacy biome mapping
