Viafabric seems to not let me change the version to anything else, and gives me this box with -1 and making it say any version does nothing btw

does it help saying I'm using the minecraft launcher with just legacy fabric and some mods, in newer versions the mods work, but they dont right now

Client-side mode is not enabled and also you must install viabackwards+viarewind too.

@Kichura I'ma try that, thank you

I don't see viabackwards with 1.8.9

ViaVersion, ViaBackwards and ViaRewind are compatible with all versions, there is no legacy branch needed for them.

Oh okay
