Posted March 10, 20196 yr I see that the 1.13.2 version of Forge is being completely rewritten, but I have a few questions about it and future Forge versions. 1. Will this allow possible backwards compat for mods made in a previous version to work in a newer version? (1.13.2 --> 1.14) 2. Is this going to require developers to completely rewrite their own mods as well? 3. Will it be simpler and easier to make mods for Forge?
March 10, 20196 yr 1. Mods are not compatible in between versions except if the mod is tiny and the updates to the game were tiny. 1.12.2 -> 1.13.2 compat is impossible and there is no way to know about 1.13.2 -> 1.14 as 1.14 isn't out yet. 2. Depends on the mod, the update for one of my mods required changing a few type names, rewriting 2 heavily vanilla dependant classes & updating a library mod to 1.13.2. I took less than 2 days and could have been faster. Massive mods, as usual will probably require some form of rewrite. Badly-written mods/mods with outdated code will also require a rewrite. 3. Yes, and Forge will now support more features About Me Spoiler My Discord - Cadiboo#8887 My Website - Cadiboo.github.io My Mods - Cadiboo.github.io/projects My Tutorials - Cadiboo.github.io/tutorials Versions below 1.14.4 are no longer supported on this forum.
