Hey Klemen, are you guys going to add support for 1.21.3 or for 1.21.4 since the latter is only a few days away? I have some ideas for a Pale Garden/Creaking mod so by the time 2024.4 is ready the update is mostly ready the update should be out and have NeoForge support by then? Thanks :)

Yeah, but I do want to keep a forge/neoforge version on 1.20.1 because most of the mods that I would put in a modpack never update higher than that.

We may support 1.21.4 eventually, but when mostly depends on the amount of the community support and development support by open-source contributors ;)

You know what would be good to add in a next update, a fully modular GUI slider, being possible to adjust the limit and appearance.

An update focused on the interface editor, both overlay and gui, as well as the ability to dynamically change size and angle.

Another addition is a scrollable page

We try to add some new GUI features every update ;)

i wish we got more texture editing tools like a magic wand and lasso selection tool, changing the transparency of layers and the bucket tool, copy and pasting texture layers. and armor textures should be able to be duplicated into the "textures for armors" category, it just makes sense. also for the material and ore pack it should also generate a deepslate variant of the ore and if the ore type is ingot based it should generate the raw variant too. and with the wood pack, stripped log varients, doors, trapdoors, and saplings should be made too. if i missed anything or didnt know its already possible let me know. also the pack features are just recommended, i can go without them. but the thing i want the most are the texture making tools.

What is a "bucket tool"? If you mean flood fill, this is already a feature in the image editor

yes the flood fill, and yes ik but if you can alter the transparency of it like the brush tool

Can we also get just some flip texture buttons.
I feel like they were there before but aren't now.

oh yes definitely, maybe a symmetry tool as well.

Hey, are you ever considering adding some of the major plugins as features for the program?

Please check our changelog. Almost every release adds parts of plugins in to the core

This is possible but, can we have a preset for tridents?

It would be cool sense we already have things like shields, shears, and even fishing rods.

Shields are already preset able if I recall ?

Yes, I said that, but I want a trident preset.
Its possible to make a trident but feel like we sould just have a preset for it.
And a little more Bedrock stuff.
I play Bedrock most. :)

Ah my bad, I’m just blind haha

Hehe.

You can do most of the trident functions using item ME enabling melee damage and using projectile already, but we may add direct tool preset one day too ;)

Whats ME?

ME = mod element
