Themes contest
As you may have already noticed on our social channels, the themes contest is over and we have the winners: Midnight and Matrix themes made by Van and Max094_Reikeb respectively. You can see how they look like below, but even better, you can download this snapshot and test them yourself ;)
Pre-release?
As you might have noticed, this is the third release but is not called pre-release. This is because we will be doing a fourth snapshot this time which will be the pre-release. The reason for this is due to so many new features this snapshot adds, so we can do some more testing before releasing the full release, so make sure to install this snapshot and test it out as much as possible.
Make sure to tell us what you think about the update in the comments, test out the snapshot, and report bugs in the snapshot.
Snapshot patch
Due to two major bugs preventing users from testing the snapshot out, we are re-releasing it. To update, download and install the latest snapshot from the snapshot downloads pages. This will fix these two bugs:
- [Bugfix, FG 1.16.5] Gradle failed to run on some computers
- [Bugfix] In some rare cases, some mod elements could get deleted during workspace import
Comments
(part 2/2)
5. New blocks to ai, I have quite a few so here is a list:
-Find and Follow entities of type [entity type]
-If Adult, become [entity]
-Trample Crops
-Destroy Turtle Eggs
-If in [dimension], become [entity]
-Scare [entity] (this could be used to get villagers to run away from a custom zombie)
6. Add a new plant type; Cactus (Would look, and function like a cactus.)
7. Allow entities to do custom damage (Like, for an infection mod, make an infected do death.attack.infect)
8. Add a procedure that would show recipes that the provided item is used in (this could be used to help make a custom recipe book)
aaaand thats all! Hope some of these get added, I feel like many people would find them useful.
I have a few ideas (this is adding to my previous comment)
1. Make it so you can add potion items to recipes
2. Make it where you can add icons of items to GUIs (kinda like the villager GUI)
3. Make a procedure to change walk speed for the player, and one to change jump power
4. Make a procedure that allows you to change to a player's client (this could use event/target entity and/or source entity, and would result in an error if the entity provided is not a player). This could be used to more easily change a player's variable.
gonna send the rest in a seperate comment.
For 2) you can just find item icon on Internet (Minecraft wiki or sth) and manually add to mod's textures, then use them on "add image for GUI". I used that for my ormath trading and it works well.
As for 3), I'm pretty sure there was plug-in allowing for similar things, but not sure if it's still up-to-date
good sanpshot!
but i have some bug
37109 version was
There is a bug about the dimension.
only Vanilla's dimension is on the list.
(Block creation, switching dimension production)
https://mcreator.net/forum/76979/custom-dimention-disappeard-dimensions-generate-blocks
I don't know whether this is considered a bug and whether this was fixed already, but when using the leaf block base the leaf would either not break quicker with shears or not with a hoe, whilst default shears are in fact broken immediately by those.
I couldn't get this fixed whilst using the blockbase either, so I ended up not using the blockbase and doing the stuff manually.

In the next snapshot, if possible, could you add that you can create your own poster? And also add AI examples when creating a mob such as: Phantoms, Snow Golems, Pillagers, Bees, Piglins, Hoglins, etc. If you can clear this. And a question, will the final version have support for 1.17?
You are welcome! :)
