Topic category: Feature requests and ideas for MCreator
MCreator is a big success in Minecraft's modding community. During the last 5 years of its existence, MCreator has changed a lot, ranging from adding various mod types and options to improve them by adding events, custom drops, emitting particles, shooting arrows and much more. As the MCreator developed, there have been many changes that changed the way MCreator worked and the way you interacted with it. Many of the things were inspired by you, the community.
Last month, we updated the website, the new home of MCreator and we did that for a reason. With that done, we are happy to announce you the plans for MCreator 2. It will come with a whole new user interface and fix many bugs that came with the current version. This version doesn't exist yet, so we want to give you the word, by allowing you to shape the new MCreator in the way you would like it to be.
This forum topic is for you to discuss developer's ideas and suggestions for the new MCreator 2. We are going to be taking the ideas on other forum topics and let you discuss them.
Notice: MCreator 2 is just a concept at this moment. There is no release date yet, nor release date timeframe.
creates a block / custom blocks that rotate according to the position of the player I would be happy
custom particle effects
Please add this, can we please import our own armor models, maybe to make it smaller or change your armor to make it to your skin more like a suit kind of like the flash where it actually looks good instead of the bulky tank armor
Thank you for all the suggestions. We are working hard to list them and we hope we will be able to implement as many of them as possible.
Wow, an MCreator 2. I didn't think this would actually happen, and since everyone is giving suggestions, why shouldn't i do it too?
-Block rotation. Please, add a checkbox that can enable Block rotation.
-More mobs models, AI elements and events, and, might i ask this too: a bit better mob types (creature, monster, ambient, flying and water mob). Practically all Minecraft default mobs models (dragon, bear...), more AI elements taken from other already existing mobs (teleport from enderman for example. YES, i know you can already do an Enderman-like creature, but i mean to just put, alongside the Enderman based AI, an AI for teleporting around, with conditions maybe). MORE EVENTS (if mob touches block, if mob is killed with item, and so on). Please, make the flying mobs so that they can also attack and not only fly around like they have no real intelligence (and they don't have one actually).
-easier-to-do growable plants. You could add another type of growable plant, similar to the sugar cane. Basically, the first type of growable plant would let you choose the various phases' texture (like wheat), the other would just grow in height like sugar canes.
I guess these are all the suggestions that i can come up with for now. Too hyped for MCreator 2!
are there any plans on bringing back rideable and steerable mobs without basing it on a horse? This used to work in the older versions but now you can only ride the mob when you selected it to be rideable and not steer it. Would love to see it work again.
This thing has been deleted: Importing .java models for blocks and items.
It would be grat if in MCreator 2 we can make a block with a gui like a Crafting Table or a Fournace, or maybe a block like chests, ender chests and Shulker Boxs. Another interesting feature could be custom armor model and custom portal shapes. I also would like to see in MCreator 2 the possibility to add a dungeon with more schematics like Stronghold or End-City or the Mansion. In the end i would see an improvement of keybinds and events
I think another good addition would to be able to make GUIs that could have randomly generated loot in them (like naturally spawning chests) that would be configurable easier to do (not requiring coding skill). This would make custom, naturally spawning inventories with customized loot easier to make. Thanks!
make the recipe maker detect input and output slots in a custom gui so you can use it for crafting if you want
add a cool down event, like the cool down on ender pearls
i have a whole page of ideas here
https://mcreator.net/forum/41635/just-some-ideas-i-ponder-why-they-were…
I agree with that entire page!
A better "Smart Crafting" would be nice, since if you make a recipe, and then make a new recipe that is the same as the first except that the ingredients are opposite locations on the crafting table, the first recipe will give you it's output in the second recipe.
