SocksProxyClient

Modern Minecraft Java client relies on Netty to connect to multiplayer servers, and this simple mod is able to proxy Minecraft game traffic through designated SOCKS proxy as desired.

Features

• SOCKS proxy support. Explicitly proxy Minecraft game traffic.
• Convert SOCKS proxy to HTTP(S) proxy. Proxy communications with Mojang Yggdrasil auth service, player skin download endpoint, and server resource pack downloading.
• Remotely resolve Minecraft server's domain name through SOCKS proxy with the help of DNS over HTTPS (DoH)

When to/Why should use this mod?

• You have a better network route through a proxy and want to lower your ping as much as possible.
• You have trouble accepting server resource pack because it's hosted on a provider that's blocked in your residence.
• You care about your privacy.

Can you port this mod to Forge/NeoForge/Quilt/(Whatever ModLoader)?

Currently, no.

Proxy test passes, but my proxy still isn't working!

Consult your Socks proxy provider first, as they likely limit proxy use deliberately at technical level.
