This plugin adds a new Fabric Generator to your MCreator.
Hello 👋
It's been a while, right? Apparently, nobody could survive without my Fabric Generator. I know I said I would not continue it and I would leave the community. It's still technically the case, but in a different way. I won't go back to working full free time on MCreator or my plugins, but you'll see me from time to time. For this particular case of the Fabric Generator, NerdyPuzzle and Spectrall (+ Kleiders?) joined me to create a small team in order to continue keep alive the Fabric Generator, so it is no longer a one-man job like in the past. Having both of them is a real game changer as it's much less work for me... and enormously more features for you like this update proves it (and more is coming in a near feature! 😁). I will not continue to spend most of my time on MCreator projects. This era is truly over in my head for me. No longer the time, nor the motivation or the ideas. I simply want to help once in a while from now on, when I have the time, the motivation and the idea.
Hope you'll be happy of this (big) update 😄
Important Information

- Back up your workspace before updating to a newer version of the plugin.
- Mods will also require Fabric API to function properly, so when you want to play your mod, make sure you have Fabric API.

Thank you
We know you are busy updating Fabric Generator
I'm sorry that most people here can't help this.
Many users have no JAVA or technical expertise.
Even people with relevant knowledge may not be able to help such complex project development.
Please ignore everyone’s urging,
A small number of people don’t understand how difficult the development of Fabric Generator is.
But most people are willing to wait for the moment when Fabric Generator is completed.
Thank you very much to the Fabric Generator development team,
Has been helping us module creators who don’t understand programming languages,
Developed such a great Explore plugins

Thank you for your message! I really appreciate it. 💙 I know most users don't have an idea of how works Java or another programming language. It's the reason they use, I used, MCreator. When I started to develop this plugin, back in April 2020, I only wanted to make it to practice myself with custom generators. Originally, I didn't want to make a Fabric generator, but a Spigot generator. Today, I've much more fun developing this generator than my Spigot generator. File Manager and the Fabric generator are my two preferred plugins. I love developing them, even if I'm alone. I would love to work with a team helping me with my plugins or simply creating and developing the biggest MCreator plugins together, but until this day happens, I take comments of users happy with new updates as my reward.
As long as I will love making new features and plugins for MCreator, I will always have some motivation someday to make, I hope, new amazing updates. This plugin also helped me a lot, helping me to learn Java and being one of the biggest members of MCreator. From the beginning, it was a great adventure and I hope it will continue in the future.
As I explained several times, I'm alone working on this plugin. In addition, I also need to update and maintain my other plugins and work on new features for MCreator, but I don't even have the time to update all plugins I would like to. I worked a lot recently on the Fabric generator to implement custom entities and block & plant generation. However, it took me about 45 hours to implement them. Working on a whole new generator of this size is a big job, even more, when you are alone. Updates would be quicker or bigger with some contributions, but sadly, I don't have contributors. I try to put more effort into this plugin/generator as I know a lot of users want multiple things, but I can't do more than what I'm doing currently. Implementing everything the Forge generators have will take time due to those reasons, but also since Forge is a modding API based on events, while Fabric is based on mixins and is still in a development phase. Most events can’t be implemented currently.
"I tried to update the generator to Minecraft 1.17, but without the support of Java 16 by MCreator I won't be able to update the plugin for Minecraft 1.17."
As in descripiton, when MCreator will support Java 16. I guess it means at earliest while second snapshot for 2021.2 is released. I think even Klemen doesn't know when it will be released, developing software isn't something you can plan easily.
Please read description, answering for something already written is frustrating. Don't force developers for doing unnecessary things on which you can get answer already.
Klemen won't support J16 in the next update because 1.15.2 and surely 1.16.5 will not work. However, Klemen explained me I can download and use another JDK using Gradle. I already started to work on that, but as long as I don't make it work, I will not make other updates. Fabric 1.17 changed mappongs to official ones, so a lot of things have changed and more features = more work to update.
