Quick question relating to version directories.

Posted January 31, 201510 yr

I have a question related to installing multiple versions of forge for varied server play.

I was originally going to post this under suggestions, but the readme sticky tells me it's already a thing:

If you see something you'd like to suggest in this list, please DO NOT mention it.

These suggestions have been raised and denied repeatedly for various reasons.

Per-version mod folders (mods/1.6.4, mods/1.7.10 for example). THIS IS ALREADY IN FORGE.

I tried digging around and didn't find anything related to it, or maybe I'm just not sure how it works; so to be clear my questions are the following:

If I make a directory inside my mods folder and in it I place mods for X or Y version i.e "
```
C:\Users\Darky Alan\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\mods\1.7.2
```
" and then repeat the same for a different version, would I be able to simply switch versions on the launcher and carry on ?
Would it be possible to specify multiple directories for a single forge version?

Allow me to clarify on that last one, I haven't run into this issue in a long time: Say I play on two servers that run the same version of Minecraft, however one server utilizes X mods; while the other only utilizes Y. I'd feel it'd be too bulky to have mods I don't need loaded all into one version of the game; would it be possible to pull this off? If so should I consider making a suggestion thread about it?

1) Yes

2) Just use GameDir option if you want that.

I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated.

You can add mob spawns using Forge's Biome Modifiers feature. I won't go into details on how to use a data generator for them, but here's a simple example:
{ "type": "forge:add_spawns", // Required "biomes": "#namespace:biome_tag", // Accepts a biome id, [list of biome ids], or #namespace:biome_tag "spawners": { "type": "namespace:entity_type", // Type of mob to spawn "weight": 100, // int, spawn weighting "minCount": 1, // int, minimum pack size "maxCount": 4 // int, maximum pack size } }This JSON file would go somewhere like this: data/modid/forge/biome_modifier/your_biome_modifier.json

How to change player renderer and transform model parts?

I have been trying for a while now to make a custom player renderer, and replace the vanilla player renderer with it. So far I've come up with a custom player renderer class that extends vanilla PlayerRenderer:
package com.FireDude123.BOTW.entity.renderer; import com.mojang.blaze3d.vertex.PoseStack; import net.minecraft.client.player.AbstractClientPlayer; import net.minecraft.client.renderer.MultiBufferSource; import net.minecraft.client.renderer.entity.player.PlayerRenderer; import net.minecraft.client.renderer.entity.EntityRendererProvider; import net.minecraftforge.client.event.RenderPlayerEvent; import net.minecraftforge.common.MinecraftForge; public class PoseablePlayerRenderer extends PlayerRenderer { public PoseablePlayerRenderer(EntityRendererProvider.Context ctx, boolean slim) { super(ctx, slim); System.out.println("here too"); } @Override public void render(AbstractClientPlayer p_117788_, float p_117789_, float p_117790_, PoseStack poseStack, MultiBufferSource p_117792_, int p_117793_) { System.out.println("didnt get here lol"); model.leftArm.xRot=(float)Math.toRadians(160); super.render(p_117788_, p_117789_, p_117790_, poseStack, p_117792_, p_117793_); } } As you can see, the intended purpose of this is to raise the player's left arm by 160 degrees. However, combined with this logic in ClientModEvents:
@Mod.EventBusSubscriber(modid = MODID, bus = Mod.EventBusSubscriber.Bus.MOD, value = Dist.CLIENT) public static class ClientModEvents { @SubscribeEvent public static void onClientSetup(FMLClientSetupEvent event) { EntityRenderers.register((EntityType<? extends AbstractClientPlayer>)(EntityType<?)EntityType.PLAYER, ctx -> new PoseablePlayerRenderer(ctx, true)); EntityRenderers.register(Entities.MAGNESIS_BLOCK.get(), com.FireDude123.BOTW.entity.renderer.BlockDisplayRenderer::new); EntityRenderers.register(Entities.REMOTE_BOMB.get(), ThrownItemRenderer::new); EntityRenderers.register(Entities.CRYONIS_ICE.get(), com.FireDude123.BOTW.entity.renderer.BlockDisplayRenderer::new); EntityRenderers.register(Entities.STASIS_BLOCK.get(), FallingBlockRenderer::new); } @SubscribeEvent public static void registerLayerDefinitions(EntityRenderersEvent.RegisterLayerDefinitions event) { event.registerLayerDefinition(new ModelLayerLocation(new ResourceLocation(BOTW.MODID, "paraglider"), "main"), ParagliderLayer::createBodyLayer); } }(I also have a paraglider layer here for something else, it's working perfectly fine, also I used the slim setting because the player is slim in 1.20.1 forge)
This logic isn't replacing the renderer, as far as I can tell. Can someone please advise as to why, and how to fix it?

How to add my mob to another mod's biome in 1.20.1.

I'm on 1.20.1 and was wondering if there was a way to add a mob I am going to make to a other mod's biome (Regions Unexplored in this case). I am trying to figure this out before I start coding the mod. Could someone point me to a good guide on this? I saw some things about biome modifier's but all the resources are either to short, unhelpful or for a different version. Thanks in advance. (i am a beginner but i have java and modding knowledge so this isn't like a "i am new and don't know anything about coding" problem btw)
