MCreator fully supporting Minecraft 1.20.1 is finally here. We worked hard on this one and also fixed a lot of bugs in the process so make sure to check this snapshot out!
3 Minecraft versions again?
Let's cover the confusion here first. Yes, this MCreator 2023.3 snapshot supports Minecraft 1.19.2, Minecraft 1.19.4, and Minecraft 1.20.1. The full release will only support 1.19.4 and 1.20.1 however. This is because while porting we added minimal changes so we can also still support 1.19.2. Going forward, it is the same as usual, we only cover two versions due to the high cost of maintenance of more than two generators.

Hello! I haven't used MCreator in a while, after switching to traditional modding a couple years ago. I'm so glad to see that MCreator is continuing to receive awesome updates! You've done so much to make modding fun and accessible with this powerful tool, and to foster a new generation of Minecraft modders--including myself--who will go on to make amazing mods! I can hardly find the words to express my gratitude. We all owe you so much.
i think the potions effect or somthing to do with it might have a similar bug like this one i read about in a forum from 3 years ago. said it was fixed by Nuparu. i cant get my effect to start unles i put my proceders in the active tick trigger rather than the effect started aplied. i got it to work on when effect started but only with the player uses item additional triger but due to the itemstack dependencies it wouldnt let me specify the item
So you on all snapshot releases will have 1.19.2 but the full release will not include it, right?
Why not keep it in the full release, but label 1.19.2 as unsupported or incomplete to indicate you won't be maintaining this version. Then let community make plugins that fix any issues that arise from not being supported.
Because when we do changes to the MCreator we need to do changes to generators to keep them working and this requires work we can't invest in 3 generators.
If you just want to keep it there, you can copy it from older versions, but this is bound to break things (which is the reason why we don't do that ourselves).
is there an expected release date for the full 2023.3 release?
