Q&A

Q: Server support?

A: Yes! Read the How to Install section!

Q: Where do I report issues or make suggestions?

A: Join the Codeberg, or go to the Codeberg page!

Q: Is this just nostalgia bait?

A: No, even if you never played Beta you can still enjoy Authentic Beta!

Q: Forge?

A: No :3

Q: Can I use this as a base for my own modpack?

A: Of course! Just credit me and let me know about it, please :3

Q: What's the difference between the 1.20.1 and 1.21.1 versions?

A: The 1.20.1 version has more accurate mechanics compared to the 1.21.1 version, as KubeJS has not been ported to Fabric 1.21.1.

Q: Is this modpack completely accurate to Beta 1.7.3?

A: No, and it never really can be. Despite this, I am trying to make it as accurate as I possibly can within my abilities. There are some things I've left in intentionally, such as sign editing and inventory QoL, because I feel that it would not be beneficial to remove them for the sake of complete accuracy (although this is always subject to change, mostly depending on how easy it is to change :P).
