*Auth-only version provides more mod compatibility, but it doesn't fix skins/sounds.

Installation guide: Beta_1.7.3_installation_guide#MultiMC/PrismLauncher/Other forks plus BetaEvolutions

BetaEvolutions (BetaEvo or BetaEVO, https://evolutions.johnymuffin.com) is a Minecraft Beta 1.7.3 mod to fix sounds, skins and authentication; created by JohnyMuffin, with 7n9.

Features

Sound and skin fixes
Capes (only for Mystic rank & above; change capes with https://capes.johnymuffin.com)
Authentication fixes (autologin on servers with its plugin)
Discord RPC
Staff-only nametag cosmetics
FoV slider

Public test versions

7n9 has released dev versions of BetaEvolutions on the RetroMC Discord server and more features exist in it (b1.8 hand sway and item name above hotbar are 2 of them).
Link your account when you join the guild, and see the betaevo-testing channel, and open the pinned thread named "Changelog & How To Play" - same install instructions apply. The workaround in BetaEvolutions/Apple Silicon Mac install guide is no longer needed, apart from M1Fix.

-# Get an x86-64 build of the JRE for macOS
+</gallery>
-#* You can use the OpenJDK builds from either of these vendors:
-#* '''Azul Zulu''': [https://www.azul.com/downloads/?version=java-8-lts&os=macos&architecture=x86-64-bit&package=jre#zulu https://www.azul.com/downloads/?version=java-8-lts&os=macos&architecture=x86-64-bit&package=jre#zulu] & download the zip/tar archive.
-#** There's no option to install this system-wide.
-#* '''Adoptium Eclipse Temurin''': [https://adoptium.net/temurin/releases/?version=8 https://adoptium.net/temurin/releases/?version=8]
-#** Select <code>macOS</code> for the ''Operating System''
-#** <code>x64</code> for ''Architecture'', and
-#** <code>JRE</code> for ''Package Type''.
-#* If you want to install it system-wide, download the <code>.pkg</code> file.
-#* If you want a portable install, download the <code>.tar.gz</code> file.
-# '''This step will vary depending on what variant you downloaded''':
-#* Open your downloads folder and:
-#** Extract the <code>.tar.gz</code>/<code>.zip</code> archive if you downloaded it.
-#** Install the x86-64 JRE from the <code>.pkg</code> file.
-# Open your launcher; PrismLauncher or MultiMC in this case.
-#* '''Only for portable Java installs; skip to step 4 if you're using a system-wide install''':
-#** Select your instance of Beta 1.7.3, select {{Button|Instance Folder}} or similar.
-#** Your b1.7.3 instance folder should open.
-#*** If not: open the Finder, select {{Button|View}} on the menu bar, then select: {{Button|Go to Folder...}} & input one of these paths depending on your launcher:
-#**** '''PrismLauncher''': <code>~/Library/Application Support/PrismLauncher/instances</code>
-#**** '''MultiMC''': <code>/Applications/MultiMC.app/Data/instances</code>
-#***** You need to open the context menu (<code>[Right Click]</code>, <code>[Ctrl]</code>+<code>[Left Click]</code>) on <code>MultiMC.app</code> & select {{Button|Show Contents}}.
-#*** Press <code>[Return]</code> or <code>[Enter]</code> & go to your b1.7.3 instance.
-#** Copy that JRE you extracted directly into the instance folder.
-# In MultiMC/PrismLauncher, select your b1.7.3 once more & select {{Button|Edit Instance}}
-#* Select: {{Button|Settings}} -> {{Button|Java installation}} -> Enable (tick) {{Button|Java installation}}
-#** '''System-wide installs''':
-#*** Select {{Button|Auto-detect}} & select the one with:
-#**** ''Version'': <code>1.8.0_372</code>
-#**** ''Architecture'': <code>x86_64</code>
-#**** ''Path'': <code>/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/temurin-8.jre/Contents/Home/bin/java</code>
-#*** If the auto-detect method doesn't work for some reason, you can use the aforementioned path as the Java path.
-#** '''Portable installs''':
-#*** '''Method 1''':
-#**** Select {{Button|Browse}}.
-#**** A file picker should pop-up; head to <code>instances</code> -> your b1.7.3 instance -> the JRE you extracted -> <code>bin/java</code>.
-#** '''Method 2''':
-#*** Open your instance folder
-#*** Head to <code>instances</code> -> your b1.7.3 instance -> the JRE you extracted -> <code>Contents/Home/bin/java</code>.
-#*** Select the <code>java</code> binary.
-#**** Press <code>Command</code>+<code>Option</code>+<code>C</code> '''or''' open the context menu, hold <code>Option</code> & select {{Button|Copy path}}.
-#*** Go back to the instance editor, select the entire Java binary path & replace it with what you have copied.
