Note

This page is accurate as of BlackWidow v1.0.0.

This page lists answers to common questions asked about BlackWidow.

Compatibility

Will you support older Minecraft or Java versions?

Highly unlikely. It takes a significant increase in maintenance effort for quickly diminishing usefulness to most users.

Reasoning against versions, if interested:

  • 1.20 or older:

    Most users are running Java versions older than Java 21. Since many users don't read the Requirements page on this Wiki, they will think the software is broken since it only works with Java 21 or newer.

  • 1.12 or older:

    Does not have 1.13's technically-superior command suggestion system, instead relying on a non-API packet filtration approach, which would require BlackWidow to use ProtocolLib or NMS on these old versions, which we want to avoid.

Will you support BungeeCord, Velocity, Sponge, etc?

Possibly, see the issue tracker and check on the status of any platforms being considered. Please react to the relevant issue(s) to demonstrate your desire to use this feature.
