Versions & Platforms
History Stages runs on three mod loaders, and they are not all at the same version. New features land on NeoForge first; the other two follow when they follow.
| Loader | Minecraft |
|---|---|
| NeoForge | 1.21.1 |
| Forge | 1.20.1 |
| Fabric | 1.21.1 |
The 1.19.X builds are no longer updated.
Which mod version each of those is currently on is on the download pages, and it moves — so it is deliberately not written down here where it would quietly go stale: CurseForge · Modrinth · GitHub Releases.
Check the version you have installed, then pick it in the version picker in the top bar. These pages describe the newest NeoForge build. Reading them while running an older Forge or Fabric build will describe features that are not there — zones, merchant trades, fluid locks and the addon API are all 6.0 additions.
How this wiki is versioned
The version picker cuts by mod version, not by Minecraft version. Seven stands exist: the living 6.0.x tree plus six frozen archives, 5.6.x down to 5.0.x.
It does not go back further than 5.0.x because the wiki itself only started in April 2026. 5.1 never got a documentation pass of its own and is covered by the 5.0.x stand.
The archives are word-for-word from their day. Mistakes that were in them at the time are still in them — a snapshot that gets corrected afterwards is no longer a snapshot. Two things were taken out: the claim that the wiki is "always aligned with the latest version", which becomes a lie in an archive, and the addon API pages in 5.6.x, which described an interface that did not exist yet on that version.
The API tab is not versioned. It describes the current addon interface, which exists only on NeoForge from 6.0.0 onwards.
