Description
Minecraft Beta 1.7.3 - released in 2011, this is the most popular version from Minecraft's "golden age." Many are drawn to it due to the simplicity and charm it holds - a small thought-out collection of items and blocks, whimsical terrain generation and a retro aesthetic, yet many are deterred by its somewhat clunky playstyle. As with any beta release of a game, it is buggy and lacks many features that keep fans of modern Minecraft from giving it a real chance.
This modpack aims to change that. Running on a modified version of Fabric specifically for Beta 1.7.3, this modpack fixes many of those bugs, backports features loved by modern Minecrafters, and polishes gameplay (with complete customizability!) - all while maintaining compatibility with existing vanilla worlds.

Pre-install notes
- Always back-up your saves! - this is a heavily modified version of a very old game :)
- As of MacOS Tahoe, Syncretic will not launch due to a StationAPI bug - until it is fixed, the only way to play Syncretic on Apple silicon devices is through Asahi Linux
- Designed specifically for use with Prism Launcher
Installation
- Install the latest release of Syncretic in Prism Launcher
- Download Syncretic Babric Patches, found in "files" under the latest release of Syncretic, and extract the downloaded folder into Syncretic's instance folder, replacing any existing files
- Navigate to Syncretic's instance "Settings" tab and select Java 17 under "Java installation"
Post-install notes
- Make sure Java 17 is up-to-date from time to time
- Each time Syncretic is updated, Syncretic Babric Patches will need to be re-installed
- A mod called "Retro Commands" is included, disabled by default - when enabled, it will grant global operator permissions
Multiplayer
- To host a save using the integrated hosting mod (BetaLan), first copy your Java 17 file path, then navigate to the "Mods" menu in game, open BetaLan's config, and paste your Java 17 file path under "Java Path"
- Now Syncretic can host a local game - load into any save and select "Open to Lan"
- Once your save has first been hosted, several server related files (such as "server.properties" and "white-list.txt") will be generated in Syncretic's "minecraft" folder, which apply globally to all hosted saves - additionally, saves are automatically backed-up each time they are hosted (configurable)
- Connecting players on devices outside of your local network requires you either port forward or use a mesh VPN such as Tailscale
Syncretism - the practice of combining different beliefs and various schools of thought.
