Released with Still Faithful 0.7.1, which carries it; on Pure Faithful 0.1.6. Old Faithful's own mods are unchanged.

• From Pure Faithful 0.1.6: the bow, doors opening and closing, and explosions sound as they did in beta, where launchers today give later recordings. Beta's bow and doors, which Mojang no longer offers, are fetched once from Modification Station's archive of beta's files. Pure Faithful's changelog has the detail.

Released with Still Faithful 0.7.0, which carries it; on Pure Faithful 0.1.5, as 0.2.4 was. Two new fixes, each on its own switch:

• On a server, while you ride a boat, minecart or pig, other players see your head turn, and the server knows which way you face (Riding Look, under Multiplayer). Beta's game told the server where you looked while riding only when you held your view still, so to others you stared ahead until you stopped turning. Now it says so every tick you ride, in the same message beta sent when you held still, which any server reads. It's your game's switch.
• Mobs at the edges of the screen no longer vanish while part of them is still in view. Beta stopped drawing a mob as soon as its hitbox left the view, but most mobs reach past their hitbox: a cow's head, a zombie's arms, a squid's tentacles, the top of a ghast's body, and any mob falling over as it dies. So as you turned, a head or a tentacle at the edge of the screen blinked out, and something moving fast could vanish a moment before it left. Now a mob stays drawn while any part of it is in view (Mobs at Edges, under Looks and Sounds). It changes only what your own game draws, so it works on any server.

And a correction to an earlier fix: on a server, after a teleport or a fast move, the chunk you stand in now always arrives first. Standing at an x or z of -1, -17, -33 and so on, it came second. It's the server's switch, multiplayer.chunkOrder in its config/oldfaithful-fixes.properties.

• Saving is faster in a world with many blocks waiting to update. Old Faithful saves those waiting updates with their chunks (Saved Block Ticks, under Redstone and Lighting: it's why a repeater clock runs on after a reload), and until now a save went through every one of them in the world for each chunk it wrote, so the more were waiting, the slower it was. New land leaves hundreds of thousands, mostly water and lava: on a server that had made a lot of it, saving took 43 seconds, and now takes 4. What's saved is the same.

Released with Still Faithful 0.4.0, which carries it; on Pure Faithful 0.1.5, whose servers make new land faster (see its changelog). One new fix, on its own switch, under Mobs:

• A mob that had died stayed solid for the second it took to fall over: it pushed you and other mobs, they pushed it, and arrows bounced off it, though nothing could hurt it any more. Now a dying mob pushes nothing, nothing pushes it, and arrows, snowballs, eggs and fishing lines fly through it (Dying Mobs). On a server it's the server's switch, except whether a dying mob pushes you, which your own game decides.

Released with Still Faithful 0.3.0, which carries it; on Pure Faithful 0.1.4, which brings its own fix (see its changelog): a rare crash when a server makes a new world. Two new fixes, each on its own switch, under Mobs:

• Squid sank to the bottom and stayed within about half a block of it: at some heights their test for being in water failed, and they couldn't swim past those. They now swim all through the water, up to the surface (Squid Swimming).
• Squid made footsteps on the sea floor, and lit redstone ore as they went (Squid Footsteps).

And one for servers, on the switch multiplayer.closedScreens in the server's config/oldfaithful-fixes.properties (players with any client get it):

• Placing a block, or using any item, a moment after closing a chest, furnace, dispenser or workbench could leave your screen showing one more of it than you had, until that slot changed again.

For the Faithful Library: while a world's rules are locked, the settings' Mods menu doesn't switch off a library mod that has rules. Without the library nothing changes.

Released with Still Faithful 0.2.2, which carries it; still on Pure Faithful 0.1.3. Two new fixes, each on its own switch, under Players and Vehicles:

• With a block low overhead (a roof 2 above the floor, say), a step could sink you about a third of a block into the floor or the block ahead, and you were shoved back out. A step now comes down only as far as it went up. Mobs sank the same way and no longer do (Steps Under Roofs).
• Rejoining a world right against a wall, a rounding slip could put you a hair inside it. You then walked into the wall, suffocating if it reached your eyes, until you were pushed out. The sides of your box now stop at the wall (Rejoining by Walls).

A correction: Old Faithful 0.1.3 said that rejoining a world far from its spawn, the walls around you were solid from the first moment, and its README said you couldn't walk into one and suffocate. That was wrong. Testing since shows the game doesn't move you until the land near you has loaded, at any distance from spawn, so that change didn't address the problem it was made for. What was reported then may well have been the rounding slip fixed here, though we can't be certain. In our tests the change made no difference a player would notice, so its switch (Rejoining Worlds, world.rejoinTerrain) is gone; a config file that still names it loads as before.

We can't show that these two fixes cover every time you've been moved into a block and pushed out. If it happens again, please tell us in an issue where you were and whether anything was overhead.

Long sections turn over with arrows beside Done. Switches keep their names and config files, so your settings carry over.
• Fixes for menus and screens have a section of their own, Screens.
• A new fix, on its own switch (World Screen Titles, under Screens): in a big window, the Create New World and Rename World titles stay at the top instead of coming down among the fields.
• The settings screen is a small mod of its own, oldfaithful-settings, in the pack. If you use Old Faithful's mods on their own, add its jar beside them: Old Faithful Options needs it.

Old Faithful 0.1.3

Play: download OldFaithful-0.1.3.zip, then in Prism Launcher: Add Instance > Import, choose the zip. Prism fetches beta 1.7.3 itself from Mojang; you need an account that owns the game. Windows only for now. Your worlds stay in beta's format.

Updating from 0.1.2: replace the three oldfaithful-*-0.1.2.jar in your instance's .minecraft/mods with this release's, or import the new pack and copy your saves folder across. Worlds and settings carry over; the new fix's switch is added to config/oldfaithful-fixes.properties on the first start.

What it is: Pure Faithful 0.1.3 (beta exactly as it was, safe online, faster, unable to lose your world) plus fixes for beta 1.7.3's own clear mistakes, each on a switch in Options > Old Faithful..., with what players built their game around kept as beta had it. The pack carries Pure Faithful 0.1.3's mods and LWJGL as that release has them.

Existing Fabric (Babric) instances: the three oldfaithful-*.jar mods work on their own, each without the others; for the whole edition add Pure Faithful 0.1.3's mods and LWJGL from its release (README).

Servers: OldFaithful-server-0.1.3.zip (bring Mojang's server jar). Players can join with vanilla beta 1.7.3, Pure Faithful or Old Faithful.

A test release: please report problems in issues, with .minecraft/logs/purefaithful/latest.log.

Released with Still Faithful 0.1.1, which carries it; still on Pure Faithful 0.1.3. A new fix, on its own switch:

• Rejoining a single-player world far from its spawn, the walls around you are solid from the first moment (beta loaded the land around the spawn first, so for a moment you could walk into a wall and suffocate).

Correction (2026-11-06): this claim was wrong: that change didn't address the problem it was made for. See v0.2.1.

Updating from 0.1.1: nothing changes for Old Faithful players; this release carries a small change to the options mod that Still Faithful 0.1.0 needs. To update anyway, replace the three oldfaithful-*-0.1.1.jar in your instance's .minecraft/mods with this release's.
