I'm still going to use it tbh, I love Geckolib.

Question,
Will there ever be an update where we can modify vanilla block, entity and game values?
Let's say I wanted to make a mod that allows you to side with the pillagers.
I would need to modify there AI to make it so they don't attack you based on a boolean somewhere.

You can use global triggers and the cancel procedure block to alter behaviors including the one you have described already

Might have skipped over that part, thx anyway.

This is very cool, I hope to add something unimaginable in the future.

Will MCreator be updated to minecraft version 1.21.3

We have not decided on that yet. We may wait for 1.22. With new Mojangs schedule and the resources and developers at hand, we can't keep up with every update

1.22, for the 2024.4 ? Yes thank you

What is your source of information that 1.22 will be released in 2024?

1.22 will be probably released in mid-2025.

That is why I was wondering how we could get 1.22 in 2024.4 as asked by the user above

Understandable, you could do an update to MCreator every year or two (if possible) once Mojang implements their new update schedule probably?

Every year or two sounds a bit too rare

Judging by what is written in the changelog, do we no longer need the Geckolib plugin?

It's only for entities, you still need geckolib for animated items and blocks...

But that's really nice though, we might see animated items and blocks without geckolib in the near future.

That is correct. It is only for entities right now, but I hope we can also see items and blocks in the future :)

That would be really cool to see these as well as a official feature in MCreator!
