What it does

Final Beta targets game version b1.7.3 only, with snapshot builds published alongside the release files. It runs on both client and server, so the server and every player need it. The mod is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is open source, with the source code and issue tracker publicly available.

Its fixes cover chests opening and closing, items breaking, climbing ladders, cobblestone stairs, redstone ore and sugar cane planting sand. Two config options control how boats break, and one setting turns the boat breaking logic off entirely. A config file lets server owners choose which fixes are applied. Minecraft's own sounds are used from the resources folder, so the mod adds none of its own, and furnace minecarts pushing other minecarts is corrected as well.

Time handling is reworked as well. In-game days are calculated from the world's time, and sleeping passes one in-game day as expected. Real-life days are counted separately and stored in the world's level.dat file, which means that if that file is deleted or corrupted, both counters are lost. Real-life days only start counting from the moment the mod was installed.

Key features

  1. Chest and ladder fixes

    Chests open and close correctly, and climbing ladders behaves as intended in the beta build.

  2. Boat breaking options

    Two config options handle how boats break, and one setting turns the boat breaking logic off completely.

  3. Video settings toggles

    A clouds toggle and a cloud height slider are added to the Video Settings screen.

  4. Day and playtime overlay

    The F3 overlay shows in-game days and real-life days played, and the entity ID tags above entities are removed in F3 mode.

No per-version build data
Modrinth lists game versions for this project (b1.7.3), but the source data has no build per game version and loader, so the compatibility grid is not shown.

Questions

Does Final Beta work in multiplayer?

There is a high chance it works in multiplayer as well as in singleplayer, since it runs on both client and server.

Can server owners choose which fixes apply?

Yes. A config file lets the server select which fixes are applied.

Why do real-life days reset?

Real-life days are stored in the world's level.dat file, so deleting or corrupting that file loses them. They also start counting from the install date.

A (Cursed) Fabric mod for Minecraft Beta 1.7.3 that adds some quality of life changes and fixes some issues. There's a very high chance this mod will not work in multiplayer, as of right now it is purely for singleplayer
