So, I've overhauled Minecraft's GUI, again. Fancy 2.0. No Optifine required. 🪚 https://t.co/0NpJ8gkb1B

More colored light sources.✨

What building/decorative blocks or block sets do you think Minecraft really need?

Update:

Today, mod developers and platform reps met to discuss taking steps toward securing future mod releases.🎉

CurseForge and Modrinth teams will now be collaborating with a third-party to allow signing mods, ensuring safety for players.

Both platforms will also be taking more active measures, including implementing a better review process for JARs.

Curse's detection tool has since been updated:

And, a JAR infection scanner was created:

Remember to give your thanks to @CurseForge and @modrinth staff, for handling this so well.

They chose to engage productively and directly, taking quick action to inform both developers and players, as well as taking our advice seriously.

Warning to modded players:

Some Minecraft mods / plugins posted on CurseForge, Bukkit, and other websites, had malware packaged into them dating back to April 18, 2023.

This includes the Better Minecraft series of modpacks, as well as many very popular mods.

Read more below.

@StardustLabs and my own mods were not compromised. Regardless, stay safe.

Change your passwords. If you have been infected, get in contact with your banks to change financial information, etc.

Report details to CurseForge and the fractureiser investigation team at their email.

[Botany @BotanyDev]

Modded players and developers can get more information here:

The team at CurseForge has created a tool to detect any infected files on your system:

Accounts have been banned and the investigation is ongoing.

23w04a marks yet another great 1.20 snapshot update, with armor trims.

Seriously impressive to see little features like this, lately. So much thought is being put into personalizing gameplay.

[Stardust Labs @StardustLabs]

We’re looking for an experienced builder to help build some structures in a survival-friendly style for an upcoming secret project!

This will be around a $500 job, possibly more.

Send us a DM with your portfolio if you’re interested! 📩

This is what happens when a Minecraft lake gets deep enough to cause worldgen to break down. It’s extremely rare and happens (close to spawn) only around once in every 5 million seeds!

Creative inventory got a BIG improvement in 22w42a. What an awesome change.

Huge boost to productivity for builders, less searching and clicking for everyone else.

Good stuff, Mojang.👏

[Botany @BotanyDev]

For clarification, the perspective presented here is based on players' expectations of modders. And, how that dictates our development cycles.

Mojang is an outstanding team, doing their best to provide us with tools and resources.

[Botany @BotanyDev]

This new change to Minecraft’s versioning scheme is going to have a significant impact on the mental health of mod developers.

Quality will be reduced across the board, solo developers will not be able to keep up at all.

This is a net loss for the community.
