Frequently asked
Does Vanilla NPC work on Minecraft 26.2?
Yes. 26.2 is the newest Minecraft version Vanilla NPC declares support for, and the claim comes from the author's own release metadata rather than from a compatibility list somebody maintains by hand.
Which Minecraft versions does Vanilla NPC support?
Everything the author has declared, from 1.21.9-pre1 up to 26.2. The full list is in the table above, with the Java runtime each version needs next to it.
Do I need to install Vanilla NPC on the client or the server?
The server only. Players join with an ordinary Minecraft client and install nothing.
What licence is Vanilla NPC under?
LicenseRef-All-Rights-Reserved, as stated by the author on the platform we synced it from. Check the project's own page before redistributing or bundling it.
How do I install Vanilla NPC?
Data packs install per world: put the downloaded file in that world's datapacks folder and run /reload, or add it when creating the world. No loader is involved. On a server, the world folder lives next to the server jar.
Where do I download Vanilla NPC safely?
From the author's own page on Modrinth, which is where the data here is synced from. MCReference never mirrors, re-hosts or repackages a file: every download button points at the original source, so you get exactly what the author published.
Works on the same versions
Ordered by how much of the recent Minecraft version coverage overlaps, not by popularity.
