Snapshot release notes

Due to changes to the creative tab ordering system, custom mod element ordering in creative tabs will have to be manually redone. If the user did not alter the order of the tabs using the creative tab order editor tool, no changes are needed and the order will be preserved.

You are welcome, I am glad to hear you find this fix useful!

Oh my gosh, procedure parameters!!! Y'all have no idea what a game changer this is. I for one am hyped. X)

It is indeed a huge QOL and also improvement to the way one can structure projects

NOTE: VERSION NOT TESTED MAY ASKED FEATURES ALREADY ADD
you should add

- size to mobs back

- more mob models (all of them like breeze and slim humanoid)

- minecraft style when creating an texture bcz i would need to pick the stone from the wiki to make an ore

- make the mod being ABLE to download bcz i cant download a mod i made

- option to set potions to other creative tab

- instead of the actual creative tab choosing, you should do with an single creative tab, and a option of how many tabs u want to be the block on it because i want a block in 4 custom tabs

- merge propreties with advanced propreties bcz sometimes i only check propreties and when i open a map the block is gray then i need to go to ADVANCED propreties to edit it and THEN FINALY test it to check

- more types of adding features, like drink and restore food

- fix but where two biomes cant spawn in one dimension

- biome spawn on the end

also more versions bcz if mcreator updates dont means it cant make a mod for 1.12.2 for example.
versions you could add at least:
1.7.10
1.12.2
1.13.2
1.14.4
1.15.2
1.16.4
1.16.5
1.17.1
1.18.2
1.19.2
1.19.4
1.20
1.20.1
1.20.2
1.20.3
1.20.4
1.20.6
1.21

also fabric and other types dont requires extensions

I recommend writing feature requests in forum topic and not under discussion intended for a snapshot :)

For minecraft style textures: those textures are copyrighted, that is why mcreator does not have them, use the website mcasset.cloud to get the textures and edit them with a pixel art editor such as piskel

Pretty much everything you mentioned is already in the game and you can use the End biomes plugin for the last point

You can export a mod for distribution, which is functionally identical to downloading your mod.

when i said download i said i tried to export and those are the same things i think

Have you fixed the bug where two Custom Biomes couldn't spawn in one Custom Dimension?

i don't know i din't tested i hope they fixed i had the same problem creating a dimension

Thank you so much!

So 1.20.4 is getting the boot with this upcoming release right?

Two days ago Klemen wrote there is a voting in there social networks about skipping 1.20.4 or not

Based on the community vote, 1.20.1 and 1.20.6 will stay in the core in 2024.2

Makes sense, I noticed that 1.20.4 wasn't nearly as popular as 1.20.1.

Add a tree feature where u can make custom trees that are different than vanilla and can have multiple types

You can make trees different from vanilla and also multiple types under single feature using the feature mod element
