About the plugin

MCreator generator plugin for Minecraft Forge 1.12.2 Java Edition mods/Resourcepack.

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. This is a fork of the original forge 1.12.2 plugin, in the future this plugin will (slowly) add the features that were not added to 1.12.2 during the MCreator updates via plugin (if they can be supported), the plugin will also be available in the future for MCreator 2025.2.

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 2020.2, the generator will have full support so if there are any bugs they will be fixed etc. (unlike 2020.2 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!

I fixed it and can share the file, which just needs to be replaced inside zip. Author of the plugin, please contact me.

Updated: I just don't know where or how to create a Pull Request

You can open it here: https://github.com/Spectrall368/Generator-Forge-1.12.2

No, I can't. The author has archived the project and the request is not being created.

The repository on my link above is definitely not archived

"This repository has been archived by the owner on Jan 11, 2023. It is now read-only." - this is what I see when I click "create pull request". Apparently, after clicking the button, I am directed to the main page of the 1.12.2 generator, which is archived. I don't know how to fix this. Maybe I'm stupid and don't know something, I very rarely use Github.

You are probably doing this on original repository and not on the fork from spectral

Ye. I click "new pull request" and am taken from the fork page to the original one. It looks like the Spectrall368 itself configured it this way.

you can contact me on discord: _spectrall

Can you share with me the file you repaired

Yes, just give your discord

Sorry, I didn't have discord

Can you send it to me using other methods?

Unfortunately, I do not have international social networks other than Discord. If I'm right, links here are blocked. But if you answer me your email, I can send the file there

Please tell me your Discord ID and I will add it to communicate with you

Hi, you can write me on this Discord ID: yarrist (ye, like nickname on site)

Yes, I have added waiting for your consent

Hello？

(2/2)

Something I find really sad is that he is still very very active, just not on this high demand project. It looks like _Spectrall has been busy actively working on all the other plugins for later versions, and not this one.

I again plead to _Spectrall to focus development on this plugin. All the later versions already have a lot more users and there's not really a niche here, but among the legacy versions that have been phased out, 1.12.2 remains a very popular version for many modded Minecraft players and has a good audience. The newer versions like 1.16.5+ are all a lot easier to add plugins for and are still supported by Mcreator, but 1.12.2 is already gone. If you were to finally update this plugin, tons of modders would rejoice and it would ensure that 1.12.2 modding with Mcreator survives for a couple more years.

Thank you.

Yep... I heard the 1.12.2 forge Mcreator doesn't support lots of features because it's forge. At least it needs better coding in 1.12.2.

yup, despite people saying otherwise 1.12.2 still has a lot of players and even their own discord server for all 1.12.2 stuff

1.12.2 has a lot of bad code
