Snapshot release notes

  • Due to changes to the creative tab ordering system, custom mod element ordering in creative tabs will have to be manually redone. If the user did not alter the order of the tabs using the creative tab order editor tool, no changes are needed and the order will be preserved.

You should add new dimension type to custom dimension creation window so you can make a new separate dimension that will not be dependent on already existing world with seed and terrain generation but would have a new one

There are mods like Aether and Twilight Forset on 1.18+ versions after terrain generation change and new dimensions in these mods have unique world generation, so it's possible and would be great if u could do that in mcreator

is there planned to be 1.20.4 for java or is that going to be skipped and will just go straight to 1.21

As I understand it, version 1.20.2 is not worth waiting for?
