About the plugin


MCreator generator plugin for Minecraft Forge 1.16.5 Java Edition mods/Datapack.

How to install

Please check https://mcreator.net/wiki/understand-plugins#toc-index-1 for installation guide.

Info

This Generator is built over the old official generator, but this one is NOT official, and is not being maintained by the MCreator Team.

 

NOTE: 

  • From MCreator 2023.1 upwards the generator works better if the old biome generation is present
  • Bipeds texture 32x32 ->  64x64
  • From MCreator 2023.4 upwards to refer to all the biomes of a dimension just put the "mod_id:is_yourdimensionid" tag
  • From MCreator 2024.2 the folders where the textures are contained have changed: Blocks -> Block, Items -> Item, this change is necessary to have the functionality to refer to vanilla Minecraft textures

Why should i use this generator?

If you are using this version of minecraft, you will have many more features than those present in MCreator 2022.2, the generator will have full support so if there are any bugs they will be fixed etc. (unlike 2022.2 which is no longer supported). The generator also has a lot of backports (from new versions of MCreator to this one) regarding bug fixes on the generator. If you want to export your mod for multiple versions this generator is for you!

Please read above: "From MCreator 2023.1 upwards the generator works better if the old biome generation is present",.You will ask yourself how to do it, it is simple but difficult, because implementing it in the plugin I think would be very difficult, but implementing it in the MCreator code would be simple the problem is that with the passage of time MCreator (rightly) does not give "help" for old versions so you should reimplement the gui in this version, which I did but which I can't share because it'is not allowed

I finally figured out the problem, it was with the generator zip itself. I had to switch certain folders and as right now, I'm not having the same errors as before. What I did was swap folders inside the forge-1.16.5 folder from the 2023.1 plugin with the folders in the forge-1.16.5 folder from the 2024.2 plugin. Did not swap everything but it is working flawlessly as I speak

wont let me use the plugin because it says structure element is not supported

Sorry if it looks like I'm spamming but I've tested other Minecraft versions(like your 1.20.4 generator) and they do not produce errors when I try to spawn an entity in, however, every 1.16.5 generator version from 2023.1 and above just straight up cause errors if i try do something as simple as spawning an entity, using math for GUI slots, setting health among others. I would list more but
A. It would be an whole essay
B. MCreator doesn't show more than 100 errors at a time
The only version of the 1.16.5 plugin that actually works is V1.3.1 for MCreator 2023.1(its not on this page anymore)

I've tried EVERY version and spawning an entity causes the SAME error https://imgur.com/a/rCLPy2u
I even made a BRAND NEW workspace and I still get the same error, not sure what to do

Hello, I wanted to retry using the 2023.3 version of this plugin(so i could port a mod to 1.18.2) but anytime i do anything related to spawning an entity, it always makes an error like this https://imgur.com/a/rCLPy2u
Something similar also happens whenever I do something relating to Math and clearing slots in a GUI(can't find the error right now) among others. I have NO other plugins installed, it is just this one

Closer to finding the reason why this doesn't work in older versions, when I view the procedure from the generated code viewer, the procedure is just straight up blank, while this was fixed in the 2024.2 version, still present within older version(especially since there's no 2024.2 for 1.18.2, so I have to use the older version)

Hello, great plugin, but I have a problem on version 2023.2, plugin version 1.5, I successfully create a recipe but it does not work in the client itself, neither when testing in mcreator nor after compiling for distribution, is there any solution for this?

it was a bug, I just fixed it, re-download the plugin, re-save your craftings and you shouldn't have this problem anymore, I recommend you update MCreator to 2024.2 because the generator is much more stable and tested
