I’m seeing how often small updates break mods and wondering how people keep up. I thought maybe people froze themselves to certain versions for just combat and related changes, but now I’m realizing people probably do it for certain mods.
I’m newer to modding but I can’t imagine the game without Alex’s Mobs. So I guess I’ll remain in 1.20.1. I’ve also just created my first mod and I can’t imagine repeating the process over and over again.
A lot of time and effort. Or they release it for a specific version and call it.
We often don’t, skip versions, stay on one for too long, etc. It is getting easier to update though since Neoforge and Mojang aren’t making sweeping changes.
I have a simple mod, but it really sucks to stay up to date. I play with a lot of mobs and haven’t updated minecraft since 1.21.1. I also think that the new update release cycle really messes up mod developer workflows, as you need to put in a crap ton of work or don’t have to do anything. Before this, you could just update on a major release, while code was mostly the same in a minor release.
Swear, I’ve been staying on 1.21.1 for some mods I can’t live without so I’ve kept my server running that too
