ReForgedPlay-Fix
by a.rtspg01
ReForgedPlay-Fix is a NeoForge patch fork that keeps Replay playback from disconnecting when a modded block entity fails to restore.
What it does
When a block entity cannot restore its data during replay playback, the failing update is skipped instead of ending the whole session. The exception is contained, playback continues wherever possible, and the error is still written to the log as a warning, so troubleshooting remains possible. Recordings that previously stopped loading because of one incompatible block entity can keep playing.
The fork is an unofficial port built on top of ReForgedPlay, which itself ports the original Replay Mod to NeoForge. It changes NeoForge registration so the replaymod:restrict payload channel is optional, which helps avoid connection trouble when the other side lacks that channel. Changes are kept small and focused so behavior stays close to upstream, and other Minecraft or NeoForge versions are not maintained.
The mod runs on the client only, under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or later, and the source code is public. Files are published for NeoForge 1.21.1 only, with V0.3.2 as the latest file, dated 2026-08-31.
Key features
Skipped failing block entity updates
A block entity update that throws an error is skipped, so one faulty entry does not stop the replay packet handling.
Contained exceptions
Errors are caught where they occur, and playback is allowed to continue whenever it is safe to do so.
Restored block entity data
Block entities that the patch can read are restored from chunk data, and standalone block entity update packets are handled as well.
Warnings kept in the log
Each contained error is still logged as a warning, which leaves a trail for troubleshooting modded block entities.
Compatibility
Latest build for each game version and loader.
Only full game releases are shown. This mod publishes no snapshot builds.
Use cases
Replays with modded blocks
Recordings that include blocks from other mods can be replayed without ending at the first incompatible block entity.
Troubleshooting replay errors
The retained warnings show which block entity failed during playback, so the cause can be traced in the log.
Who it’s for: Players who watch Replay Mod recordings on NeoForge 1.21.1 and want playback to survive modded block entities. Server owners do not need it, since the environment is client-side only.
