MCreator 1.7.6 for Minecraft 1.12.2 released

MCreator for Minecraft 1.12.2 is now there. It supports importing old workspaces so you can migrate all of your projects into new MCreator without any issues. Read the article to learn more about this update.

One of the bigger changes in MCreator 1.12.2 is that achievement system was replaced with advancement system. In MCreator, we still call them achievements to avoid confusion. Achievements from your old mods will be automatically migrated to support the new system.

Another new feature is that dialog windows can now be closed using ESC button as this is almost a standard for most development tools as some developers prefer to work with a keyboard rather than with a mouse.

We have also fixed some bugs including a problematic bug that caused fatal MCreator crash without any warnings in some rare cases when a file copy task failed. Now the error is properly handled and MCreator won't just close anymore.
