1.7.2 compatibility

[freshhh]

Hi, just wondering if there were any major changes with functions used between 1.6 and 1.7. Another way of forming this question : Can people still use 1.6.4 code in 1.7.2 and will it still work or are the functions completely rewrote? Sorry if this was answered elsewhere but I'm a retarded donkey for not seeing it.

There is a very good chance that you will have to fix your code when you update to 1.7 this has actually been stated several times. It looks like the registering system is going to change so every mod will have to update.

Research dude! over 6K  or so lines of code were changed IN THEIR UNOBFUSCATED NAMES! so we dont have .getBlockId we have .func_i4j4w23_b or something

You can't be serious! I won't update my mods until that is fixed

What he said is right, but the way your understanding it is wrong. It is not going to remain like that. It is not something that lex chose to happen, mojang obfuscates their code so mcp and lex have to manually deobfuscate it but unlike most other updates, mojang changed some code is almost every class in minecraft plus added several new classes. And what deathman said is a huge understatement about the 6k lines, thats not even enough lines to generate a minecraft world. Mojang changed over 500k lines all we can really do right now is wait. I suspect we still have a couple months before lex feels that they are ready for an official release.
