Should we even?

[American2050]

As Mod Makers, should we even code our mods for 1.11 1.11.1 and/or 1.12 1.12.1

Or is it ok to only push updates for 1.11.2 and 1.12.2?

I'm nout sure of the incompatibilities between those version, but is it ok to encourage ModPack makers to use 1.11.2 and 1.12.2 and not the other versions?

You should go for the latest versions, because they're there for a reason (bug fixes etc.).

But that doesn't say you won't get support for the other versions (if you have a good reason to)...

For me it makes things easiers to stay on the newest one, specially between same version of MC. So yes 1.11.2 and 1.12.2 is always where I'm aiming towards. Same was for 1.7.10 and 1.10.2

The official answer, and the only one I will encourage or endorse people to do. Is to actively develop your mod for the current stable version of Minecraft.

Backporting only bug fixes and other NECESSARY things. 

 

As for 1.12.1 vs 1.12.2... Just go with the .2, As stated, sub releases exist for a reason. Bugs get fixed. Users should update.
