Greetings and Happy New Year. I'm back from my camping holiday and am settling back into my routines. I did some work on MCStacker before my break and a little bit this morning. In the past month, I've fixed many issues with text components not importing properly. The loot table generator needed a major fix to handle boolean values properly, and just this morning, I made it so default components can now be removed from items.
Thanks again for your ongoing support. This month's Ad-free L...

Greetings. As I write this Minecraft 1.21.4 is about to be released. It's funny that in my last post, I talked about how I'd better get to work on 1.22 thinking that this was the Winter Drop update. At that point, I hadn't done any work on it because I thought it would be released sometime next year. Then all of a sudden the pre-release versions started being released for 1.21.4. I was a bit caught off guard. I spent a few days implementing the changes and put a copy of MCStacker for 1.21.4 h...

Greetings. About two weeks ago Minecraft 1.21.3 was released. In my last post a month ago I was excited to share that the Item UI in MCStacker had been completely revised to eliminate clutter. The downside to this is that there are a few extra steps users have to make to add the components they want. As mcstacker.net was updated to the new version, some users on the MCStacker Discord were a bit unhappy with the changes. To hel...

Greetings. This past month I began implementing things into MCStacker in preparation for 1.21.2. Loads of new item components are being introduced in this update. Many of these new components can be applied to any item. This is all really cool stuff for map makers and server owners but this further exacerbates a long-standing usability issue in MCStacker. There is too much clutter in the item user interface as more options become available. To rectify this, users now have to choose which comp...

Greetings. This past month I haven't done much work on MCStacker. Just a few simple bug fixes. Instead, I've been actually playing Minecraft in my single-player world. I set myself the challenge of completing every Advancement in the game with the exception of the ridiculously tough hidden challenge of "How did we get here?". Setting a goal like this makes it hard to focus on other things. While I was finishing up some of the more time-consuming advancements, Mojang started releasing snapshot...

Greetings. There's been several highlights and one lowlight this past month. Loads of bugs were squashed, and a cool feature was added to generate gradients on your text components. Copy and pasting now works as you would expect it to which means that the MCStacker internal clipboard could be removed. The Deluxe Edition now has the Mural Generator included with it. The big lowlight this month was when I updated MCStacker with a critical bug that prevented you from opening the item UI if it wa...

Greetings. There's not too much to report on this month. I haven't been squashing many bugs because I've been actually playing Minecraft rather than just testing commands. One of the things I like to do when a major update of Minecraft is released is to scratch off a few achievements or advancements. I loaded up my world that I started in for Minecraft 1.20 and I tried to complete a few more objectives. So I got the mace and then I went for the Over Overkill advancement. That one took me way ...

Greetings. It looks like Minecraft 1.21 will be out before too long. I have a version of MCStacker ready to go. For now, you can try it at https://mcstacker.net/1.21.php and it's also included in the offline edition. It includes the new items, entities, and blocks. As I've been working on this, I've been making some changes to the UI. Just today I removed the HideFlags panel for items. All of the tooltip hide options ...

Greetings. Since my post last month Minecraft 1.20.5 was released. I'm really happy MCStacker was ready in time. It was a huge amount of work to get through, but I got there eventually. A few little details were overlooked along the way, but thanks to the awesome community on Discord, I was able to fix any bugs that were reported. I just have acknowledge again anyone who at some time in the past took the time to report bugs or to make suggestions. This has played a massive part in the betterm...

Greetings. This past month I've been extremely busy updating MCStacker in preparation for 1.20.5. As you may know, the way items in Minecraft are stored is undergoing a massive change in the interests of easier extendibility and customizations. I've been using every spare minute to get this work done in time for its release. It's been an interesting process to work through as it's allowed me to tidy up a lot of old inefficient code in MCStacker. In most cases, you'll be able to import 1.20.4 ...

As usual it's been a busy time for MCStacker. I finished preparing a retrospective webpage about MCStacker's 10 year history. In case you missed it, it is still at https://mcstacker.net/10years/ . I also reworked the UI for enchantments a little bit
A few days ago snapshot 24wo9a for 1.20.5 was released with the news that the way item properties are stored is being changed significantly. That means I have a huge amou...

This month has been a little busy. MCStacker had a logo update thanks to Aandeel on Discord. MCStacker is celebrating it's 10th birthday this month. I'm just preparing a retrospective to reflect on all of the key things that happened during that time. Keep an eye on the site for that. Minecraft 1.20.5 should be out soon. MCStacker is ready for that when it's out.

Happy new year. I hope all your Minecraft projects for 2024 turn out amazing. MCStacker continues to be updated for current snapshots. But please note that these do not support the experimental content for Minecraft 1.21. That will begin to be implemented in MCStacker when the 1.21 snapshots start being released. MCStacker currently supports up to 1.20.5.

I hope you had a good month with your Minecraft/MCStacker projects. I've be super busy lately which unfortunately has put me a little behind with getting snap shot versions out. I did make a start on it 2 days ago so at least it's underway.
Recently there have been people on the Discord saying that mcstacker.net becomes unresponsive. Most people don't experience this issue but for those that do it can be incredibly annoying. It's hard to pinpoint what exactly is causing this but I...

Happy 🎃October👻. This past week I've been working on the Deluxe Edition. Recently I've been asked by a few people why the Deluxe Edition doesn't include all of the old versions of MCStacker. The short answer is always something to do with time constraints. I've found a little time to rectify this. The next update is going to include offline versions of MCStacker from versions 1.13 and up. That's the good news. The bad news is that the Deluxe Edition special features are not compatible w...

This past month a new snapshot version of MCStacker was released for 1.20.2. This version of Minecraft has updated syntax for commands containing Active Effects. Version 1.20.2 of MCStacker will import commands with the old syntax and convert it to the new format. Just today the Deluxe Edition was also updated to also include the 1.20.2 version of MCStacker as well as the current version.

The installable offline edition (AKA MCStacker Deluxe Edition) has finally launched. It works on Windows, Mac and even Linux which I'm really happy about. I'm selling it over on Ko-fi, but you probably don't need to buy there because you may already have it (sort of). At the beginning of each month, I process the active patrons export. So once your lifetime support amount is $10 or over, I send you an email with instructions for where to download it. If you've been supporting me here for a wh...

I've tested this out in a single player world and then in the same world with another non-opped player (Open to Lan) . It worked as expected. I haven't tested yet with a standalone server but plan to do that this week. For now I'm not publicly announcing the site until I'm happy it's generating efficient and correct commands. I'll make a patrons-only post on Patreon in a moment. You can tell y...

MCStacker has a 1.13 only version for the up and coming release of Minecraft 1.13. This version has all of the 1.12 only content removed.
This will eventually become the main version of MCStacker once Minecraft 1.13 is released.

Happy New Year. I've been on holiday mode for last few weeks. Now that 2018 has started I'm ready to start implementing some of the long overdue functionality into MCStacker. Perhaps a Loot Table generator first up. I'm also eager to make a video series on my channel which demonstrates the process of planning a mini-game through to deployment. I will be waiting for Minecraft 1.13 before I do this though.
Speaking of Minecraft 1.13. I believe I've completed most of the functionality for c...
