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:

206a5b4 Pass new item and entity names as translatable This removes the itemnames and entitynames sections from mapping data and instead allows for easier changes via resource packs.

For 1.20.5+ clients, entities use the vb.entity.<type> translate key; items use vg.item.<type>. The old-style string (e.g. "26.2 Sulfur" is added into the fallback field).

For clients below 1.20.5, the old style string is put directly into the translate field.
