About Minecraft 16.5 Compatibility #29

Is there a specific reason 16.5 support was removed? Are there any improvements or features that would not be compatible with that version? |
Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.

1.16.5 support was removed because it uses a ton of Reflection calls in the code. In 1.17, a lot of packet definition has changed allowing you to define a packet directly instead of using Reflection to define, it meaning it is much faster. Since the plan is to really only support newer versions (and also it's a ton more work to support anything < 1.17 because of the changes), the goal is to only support 1.17+. |
