1st MCreator 2024.3 snapshot - Minecraft 1.21.1 support

MCreator fully supporting Minecraft 1.21.1 is here. Alongside the new Minecraft support, we improved Gradle performance, fixed many bugs, and also added some new features. Read on!

3 Minecraft versions?

As we often do when porting to a new Minecraft version, MCreator 2024.3 snapshot supports Minecraft 1.20.1, Minecraft 1.20.6, and Minecraft 1.21.1 at the same time. In the next snapshots and in the full release, we will only cover two versions, depending on the results of the community vote and internal factors.

Snapshot release notes

Redesigned enchantment mod element editor to fit modern enchantment definition. Some fields were removed and some will be automatically converted. We recommend manually verifying and correcting existing enchantments in your workspace if necessary.
The plant type procedure block has been removed. Existing blocks will be converted to logic blocks with the value false. We recommend using custom tags for plant type checks from now on.
Certain itemstack procedure blocks now require world dependency. It will be automatically added to existing procedures.
[Plugins] API plugins can now specify additional texture reference sources, allowing modders to reference textures from other mods in their mods

So, saving it is not the problem, the problem is converting it

did i miss a snapshot or did you skip 1.21

1.21.1 and 1.21 have no difference. The only exception is a critical bug fix. 1.21.1 and 1.21 should be compatible for mods

so i can use 1.21.1 one mods on 1.21

yes

Is there planned an official fabric generator for newer versions? And if no, why?

No, because this is a free project done in free time and core maintenance team does not have resources to sustain two modding APIs at the same time.

Is it possible you could change entity related ai tasks (attack entity, and avoid entity) to be able to iclude entity tags, because it is annoying to have to put every entity I want a mob to avoid or attack.

After the vanilla game codebase will support this, we will too. I think entities in particular are missing better tags support in the vanilla codebase

It's possible in vanilla to make weapons and gear modify stats like speed, gravity, scale. Is it possible to make that an option when making Armor and tools next snapshot?

You can use attributes plugin for this, but this feature is also coming to the core eventually

Can you make it possible to add an item to Operator Items tab?

Good idea, noted

Would it be possible to add a feature for generators to add a custom generator type(or in mcreator code terms - a custom generator flavour)?

What flavor would you like to add?

Some of the mods I'm making a plugin for use registrate to register their blocks so I would like to add one for that

Could you guys make it so Growable Plants are easy to make? So I can make Peppers, Tomatoes, & Stuff without Struggling?

Farm plants & the like

We will likely improve this in the future, but for now I recommend watching some YouTube tutorials that cover this topic very well

Is it reccommended to update to snapshot or wait for the release?

I recommend updating, but making a backup of the workspace folder (copy+paste it) just in case. If you try a snapshot and find a bug that annoys you, you can report it before full release which makes sure the release will be without bugs that affect you.

okay ty
