Known Issues:

• And more, possibly on purpose as some packets were disabled

Installation and Usage

1. Download the latest version from GitHub Actions.
2. Put the jar file into the plugins folder of ViaProxy
3. Run ViaProxy. You should now be able to connect from a snapshot client to ViaProxy.

This is just a fun project I did and will possibly continue depending on my skill and knowledge.
