Which Minecraft Versions and VR Headsets Does Vivecraft Support?

Vivecraft requires the original PC Java edition of Minecraft, and it supports Minecraft 1.7.10 plus versions 1.10 through 1.20.1. For VR hardware, the best experience comes from SteamVR-compatible headsets such as the HTC Vive or Cosmos, Valve Index, Oculus Rift S, and WMR headsets. Mobile VR devices like Quest, GearVR, PSVR, Daydream, Cardboard, and Vive Focus can also run it through SteamVR emulators.

Supported Minecraft Versions

Vivecraft is built for the PC Java edition of Minecraft, not Bedrock or console versions. The supported releases are:

• 1.7.10

Individual download links for each version are listed on the Vivecraft Downloads page, so you can match the mod build to your installed Minecraft version.

• The Forge modding platform is supported on most standalone versions.
