The pre-release of the last feature update of MCreator is here. Adding particles, bedrock edition 1.16.x support, new statement procedure blocks, it is one of the biggest snapshots to date.
I would like to say one huge thanks to all the contributors and translators, they really helped shape this update as we see it now. I felt really bad when I had to announce we need to cut the line with PRs, seeing the enthusiasm of contributors, but it had to be done at one point, or the release would never come ;)

Note for contributors
Once again, thank you for all your feature contributions. Now it is time to test things out. Because in the past I learned the hard way new features after pre-release are not wise, I will learn from this mistake this time. This means that now only PRs fixing bugs introduced during work on this version will be accepted. PRs with new features will have to be ignored or closed. Even if 2020.6 happens, it will be oriented on bug fixing and 1.16.x support only.
Testing is as important as adding new features, so if you have time to do some testing and bug fixing, it would be awesome.
The future?
Many people are asking me if 2020.6 is a thing or not. The answer is I don't know for sure yet as well :D I will post an article on all this after the final 2020.5 release and after things like patches and such settle down. Then, I will announce my final plans in the article on this website, as I already hinted in the previous article.

Comments
If there is one thing I wish this could get before development ends, it would have to be a sort of "if mod namespace loaded" procedure block. Other than that, I'm sure I want the update to come out quickly as much as most of the other users of MCreator, but since it's the final update, I don't want you to rush. I want you to take your time and ensure that everything is perfect.
With all that said, I wish you the best of luck with everything, to both you and your best friend. You said this project was your baby, and I know the feeling; I write songs and sing them. Those songs mean a lot to me, and I'm sure MCreator is the same for you. I promise to treat this program with only the utmost level of care; if I were letting go of my songs, I'd expect the same. We all love MCreator, and we love you guys who worked on it all these years. Thank you for sticking around as long as you did, we'll miss you.
Hey I understand that your going to stop working on MCreator as of now, I was wondering about some things if you don't mind.
1) will folders ever come to MCreator? and if so could we get folders inside of folders?
2) Is it possible to give fences, gates, etc side textures? And maybe could we get a way to choose how textures are shown on each face of a block type? these would help me personally because textures like grass don't exactly work with stairs and slabs.
3) I've had trouble with damage and things dealing an extra 2, so if I want a sword to deal 0.5 damage it deals 2.5, could a fix be done for this?
Hi, Klemen, I'm going to ask you some questions,
the first question: is there an interface that can specify the height of a dimension?
The second question: is there an interface that can put music inside a structure? Because I wanted to put a structure that has a music when the player is inside the structure.
the third question: is there an interface that can put music in the biomes ?, because the new biomes of the nether have their own music.
the fourth question, is there an interface that can specify that
Foods mobs dislike ?, Example if a player gives a chocolate chip cookie to a parrot, the parrot that ate the chocolate chip cookie begins to have the effect of poison.
