- Cleanroom 0.7.0+
- Pressure from Big Modding
- Weblate & Chizu
Cleanroom 0.7.0 is nearly here, waiting some on some QC stuff. You can see the milestone here: (0.7.0 Milestone). We will setup a milestone for each major/minor version bump, serves for simple transparency.
0.7.0 will also be the start of the "API Era", with CleanroomGradle now being used instead of ForgeGradle/RFG, we may retire old templates and encourage development on Cleanroom.
SDL 3 will also be implemented, but its input devices won't be native yet, as mouse inputs need some refactoring (old Minecraft behaviour means the game or mods can swallow inputs).
Recently Refitbench (Sub-organization to CleanroomMC) projects were taken down in Modrinth:
We have been made aware of disturbing off-platform behavior in relation to your work in the Minecraft modding community.
We believe it is our duty to protect the communities Modrinth serves and uphold our common values.
With this in mind and an understanding that we reserve the right to remove or refuse the posting of any user contribution at our sole discretion, the Moderation team has determined that all current and future projects under the ownership of or in association with yourself, Rongmario, should be indefinitely rejected, and will not be welcome on Modrinth.
Modrinth was already compromised from the very start, but with the recent acquisition by Essential (also a malicious actor), safe to say it is an extremist infested platform and should not be used.
We will carry on publishing on both platforms, but make sure you start moving to CurseForge sooner than later.
More details coming later but
- Our Weblate Instance will be used for translations all across our projects, and maybe even broadly to all 1.12.2 mods. As Strata would allow shipping of resource overrides that work differently to a resource pack.
- Chizu: will hopefully be our mod hosting platform, only for 1.12.2 mods (Forge & Cleanroom). This was encouraged by many members of the community before, but realized now through some AI sloppage since I do not have time to make sites from scratch. It'll allow for uploads, and redirects to existing uploading platforms (maybe not modrinth lmao?) to save on bandwidth & storage, and so the original developers can get their monies (Yes we're cheap and won't give monies, we're not funded by Big Modding!)
Cheerio, that is all I'm typing for today.
