Advanced Backups Patch
by tier940
Advanced Backups Patch is a Forge compatibility patch that fixes Advanced Backups on Minecraft 1.12.2.
What it does
The patch targets the Advanced Backups mod on 1.12.2 and corrects several initialization and networking problems in it. Advanced Backups and MixinBooter must both be installed alongside it. Both the server and every player need the patch, since it changes behavior on both sides, and it is released under the MIT License as open source.
Forge is the only loader with files, and the single game version covered is 1.12.2. The latest file, 1.0.6, was published on 2026-03-27, after the first release on 2026-02-27. The source code and issue tracker are public for anyone who wants to examine the changes or report a problem.
Key features
Login server fix
Resolves a problem that prevented login servers from working while Advanced Backups was installed.

How it compares
Simple Backups is a Forge and NeoForge mod released under the Apache License 2.0 and open source, with files for 1.18.1 – 26.3, and it works on either side, and neither needs it. Backup Manager runs on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge for 1.18.2 – 1.21.5 under the BSD-4-Clause license and is not open source, with the client and server both needing it. Advanced Backups Patch covers only 1.12.2 on Forge and is meant to sit alongside the mod it patches.
