ViaRewind Legacy Support is a Paper plugin and addon for ViaRewind that improves the experience of players joining a modern Minecraft server with 1.7 or 1.8 clients. It focuses on compatibility details that standard protocol translation cannot fully reproduce, helping legacy players interact with familiar blocks and mechanics more reliably.
Its features include corrected lily pad and ladder collision boxes, enchantment table lapis handling, brewing stand interaction, legacy placement and pickup sounds, visible area effect clouds, slime block bouncing, and Elytra velocity for older clients. At BoxToPlay, we recommend it for Paper servers seeking smoother cross version gameplay alongside ViaRewind.
