Hello everybody! Back with another Badlion Client update! Like we previously mentioned in the last update post, for this update we would heavily focus on cleaning up the client of all the annoying little bugs some of you might of encountered over the last year. This type of update is very important for the overall health of the client and making sure everyone can enjoy as much of a bug free experience as possible. We were successful in fixing over 200 bugs! From Skyblock to MacOS bugs, we have you covered.
In other news we have also made our own 3D skin mod and also sprinkled in a few other features.
Read below for more information!

3D Skin Mod
A highly requested mod is finally here on the Badlion Client, the 3D skin mod! This mod allows the user to make their in-game skin have a 3D appearance. It uses the outer layers of your skin and fill them up with pixels.

Upgrades & Features
Generally the original mod & other rehash of this mod have a lot of issues with FPS. From our testing, this version of the 3D skin mod is around 2x better for overall FPS than any other of it's competitors. We made sure to optimize it a bunch and made sure it worked for all versions that we support.
Here's a few options that you mess around with:
Overall pretty happy with how this mod turned out. We will keep trying to improve upon it in future releases and make sure we keep improving the performance.

Removed Version & Legacy Versions
Always hurts to see features & stuff you've worked on for so long being removed from the client. Sadly the time has come to shut down & archive old Minecraft versions that are simply not popular anymore.
Why?
Some of these older versions add quite a bit of extra development time to our product pipeline when it comes to adding new features to the client. We want to ensure that we can create new features as quickly as possible that can be used by the majority of our community. These older versions sometimes cause game breaking mechanics across other versions of the client, and we have been sorting these problems out for quite a while now for a very small portion of our users. We've held on to them for longer than we honestly should in hope that it would improve over time, but we have not been able to find a way to do this. In order for us to serve the majority of our users properly, we have decided to remove a few of these Minecraft versions that are used by a very small portion of our community today.
Legacy
Legacy means that the version is now not being updated anymore and will most likely be removed in the near future unless a surge of players start using it. This is a buffer to let everyone know that you shouldn't get attached to this version of the client.
Removed Version
This means that these versions are gone from the client and you will not have a possibility to use them anymore.
Again we're sorry for dropping support of these versions and hope you can still enjoy BLC on other versions.
FPS Boost
We did a few minor tweaks for higher versions of MC to make your FPS as smooth as possible. We also touched a few other areas/potential memory leaks.
Misc

Skyblock
Replay Mod
MacOS
Misc

Overall very happy with this update, it was clearly needed since a huge part of our feedback that we've received was about fixing certain issues. Hope you all have a wonderful time on BLC and make sure to report any issues you encounter since we won't be done fixing them!

A Minecraft PvP client without 1.7 ? huh ? (o_o)when blc is known to be the best for competitive scenarios ?
so what are we going to use now, forge ? other clients ?
is there any real reason for the version not to stay legacy ?

PLEASE BRING AGAIN VERSION 1.7.10 PLEASEPosted on 07 February 2023 - 05:16 PM
Hello, thaks to all the staff for this update, is fixed the bug in skyblock of you cant see near people? greetings.Posted on 07 February 2023 - 08:34 PM
1.7.10 Was my main version please add it back! I understand it was taking up resources and I get it but the part that I'm confused about is why you didn't make a poll about this & let the Blc community know before removing the versions I can't play on Lunar client 1.7.10 Because I don't get as much of a fps boost on there. This was truly one of the worst decisions you have ever made in the Badlion community. & If you can't do anything about that I'm truly disappointed in the staff team for not thinking this over very well. And I understand that you made this decision, but you didn't think it threw very well and maybe if the staff team made a poll, it would be more balanced. I'm not here to hate on the Badlion staff team I know (you)'re guys are very hard-working people but maybe next time you are going to make such a big update ask the community first and see what their opinion is.Posted on 07 February 2023 - 11:05 PM
I do not understand removing 1.7.10. I don't understand the removal because it is "less popular". 1.7.10 is still the second most popular Minecraft version after 1.8.9 and 1.8.9 only takes the cake because of Hypixel. I don't want to have to concede after 2 years and move over to Lunar, please don't make me.Last edited on 08 February 2023 - 09:31 AM by SoEinChef
What do you want us to do after removing 1.7?You removed the best version for no reason, now many player will have to change client.
How to decrease playerbase any% speedrun.

The fact that this seemingly wasn't even consulted in the community is sad. I've used Badlion client since its release and I've never felt a need to switch to lunar or other similar clients because of the perfect input controls that BLC has. 1.7 is a version of Minecraft that a lot of competitive Minecraft pvpers still need and utilise. The fact this has come from one of the more respected OCN legends when OCN is one of the servers still using 1.7 integration is extremely disappointing.Posted on 08 February 2023 - 11:36 PM
I dare say that the renewal of 3d skin and its change in PVP feel!Posted on 09 February 2023 - 10:40 AM
Really, it's great that you're making mistakes in the mod. Thank you, Team Bedlion
