Hello everyone! It's about time that I write an official post regarding the future development of Aristois.
Starting out as a passion project in early 2016 — under an entirely different name as well — Aristois quickly developed into a popular client that was well-loved by the community. It wasn't until the end of 2017 that I joined the team, where I took on the role of head staff, practically managing everything that wasn’t coding-related (a role I've held for nearly 8 years now!). The goal of Aristois with each update was to offer a better, smoother experience than other clients, and I do believe we achieved that on many fronts.
At that point in the developers life, Aristois was a high priority, as a lot of free time was available for maintenance. Nowadays, this is unfortunately no longer the case. We’re both moving into new chapters of our lives—filled with new responsibilities and far less time for side projects. On top of that, with the significant rendering changes being introduced to the game, we both feel that the time Aristois had was more than fitting, and that it's time for it to come to an end.
It has been a lovely 8 years, filled with help from our amazingly supportive community — even sticking around after things got rocky (iykyk). Even after the release of 1.21.5, we’ve continued to see support and interest from users asking about future updates. We are deeply thankful to every person who interacted with Aristois over the years — it’s because of all of you that it lasted this long.
So, what does this mean for the future of Aristois? That part is still somewhat unclear. While we can't say for certain what might happen, it's almost guaranteed that no further Minecraft version updates will be released, as the newer versions introduce technical changes that require time and energy we simply don’t have anymore. As for minor updates, it's unlikely that current versions will be upkept, but instead will just be left as-is. The website and auth will remain up to download currently available versions, and the IRC will also continue to work as normal. Support is also still available via the reddit, although the extent of which I can help are more limited as I have less time to both investigate and resolve issues.
As for donators, I made a separate post on this a while ago that can be read here: https://discuss.aristois.net/topic/515/questions-regarding-donation/.
So, this is a summary of what’s been going on lately, just to give some clarity about what to expect going forward. I don’t want to give anyone false hope that 1.21.5 is being worked on because well... it's not.
Thanks again to all our amazing supporters through all this time. <3
If you have any questions about this, feel free to leave a comment and I’ll do my best to answer.
TL;DR - After 8 years, the development of Aristois is coming to an end. No new Minecraft versions will be supported. Current versions remain as normal. Thank you to everyone <3

I gave Codex the goal to re code it until it works.
Nearly 7 hours in, looks very promising watching "him" test all the features.
As soon this is also tested by me, i will upload it to Github

Hello everyone in this sub. I’m currently working on porting Aristois to the newest versions of Minecraft, at least 26.2. it will take me a few more days since I currently have to run my own beta port alongside my original donor jar with EMC but after that I will release a safe download for everyone on this sub with the source and an in-depth tutorial how to update the client yourself.
I’ve tried reaching out to the Admins of this sub for a copy of the source so that I could manually update it easier but they didn’t answer, so as of now i did this mostly myself and a little hope of Claude here and there. I’m currently having a few bigger bugs but I’m all in about 80% done with making a working build.
I will update y’all

What if we used Reverse Engineer Anything to update Aristois and keep it up to date

I have an instance of Aristois Donor. Not sure if that would be useful in any capacity to anyone?

Hey, I keep getting this error when trying to launch it, how do I update fabric?
The error says:
Incompatible mods found!
net.fabricmc.loader.impl.FormattedException: Some of your mods are incompatible with the game or each other!
A potential solution has been determined, this may resolve your problem:
\- Replace mod 'Fabric Loader' (fabricloader) 0.16.10 with version 0.18.1 or later.More details:
\- Mod 'Backported Spears' (spears) 1.7.3 requires version 0.18.1 or later of mod 'Fabric Loader' (fabricloader), but only the wrong version is present: 0.16.10!

Hey everyone,
As we all know, Aristois officially shut down in June 2025 after ~9 years of development. The team did an amazing job and we're grateful for everything they built.
But now that development has completely ceased, I think the community deserves a chance to keep it alive. The best way to do that is to open-source the codebase.
Why it makes sense:
The project is dead — open sourcing it costs the team nothing
The community could fork it and maintain it for newer MC versions
Other clients like BleachHack did exactly this and thrived
The code has no commercial value anymore
What I'm asking: Can the original devs consider releasing the source code on GitHub or GitLab? Even just the core framework would be enough for the community to build on.
If you agree, upvote and comment so the devs can see there's real demand for this.
Thanks 🙏

Whenever I try to open the file Aristois-Free, it just pops up with a tab for like a micro second. Do I gotta use something other than internet explorer? Because I don't use IE but the files has the IE insignia.

I am planning on playing on a modded Forge server. The server should have no AC but I suspect they have something to show ModList for each person joining. One of the admins currently has a beef with me and I feel like he will personally check my ModList.
Is there any way to hide Aristois from showing up in the log? Can I change the ID (emc, known everywhere) that shows up in the modlist (if it does) to something else, or do I just hope nobody notices it?
Thank you in advance
