paper/velocity modern forwarding support? #654
Description
it would be nice to be able to put viaproxy behind velocity, with modern forwarding, so if i had a backend server behind viaproxy that did uuid forwarding or whatever, i could have my main velocity proxy pass to viaproxy with modern forwarding format, then to the backend server or whatever. something. as it stands i dont think i can use velocity with viaproxy at all without using like bungee forwarding which kinda sucks

Have you tried enabling
bungeecord-player-info-passthroughin the ViaProxy config? Even tho its namedbungeecord-player-info-passthroughits just a generic "extra data in handshake packet" forwarder, so it might work with VelocitytherealKoolant commentedon Apr 25, 2026
afaik bungee does what velocity considers as "legacy" forwarding, aka insecure, not bungeeguard or modern compatible. it might work maybe but idk

ViaProxy doesn't have any Bungeecord specific handling. I just named the option
bungeecord-player-info-passthrough, but it might work with velocity modern forwarding. You should just tryjobpaardekooper commentedon May 24, 2026
I tried this and can say it works with velocity modern forwarding when you enable
bungeecord-player-info-passthrough. For example with this setup:This allowed me to use a
26.1.2online mode client to connect through the Velocity proxy to the1.20.1Paper server.
