This is probably something that will require quite a bit of effort to fix, specifically replacing Forge's sub-optimal config system with something like this: https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/configuration However, it makes little sense to put that much effort into a version nearing it's end of life (Forge for 1.12.2 has been available for 4 years now), especially since the documentation for the API in that version of the mod isn't even available anymore. Furthermore, introducing a hard dependency now for a version that's been out this long isn't exactly a popular idea either. Along those lines, the potential for introducing game breaking changes must also be evaluated, especially given Forge's questionable future now that all but one of the team members have moved on to their own project. This introduces the likelihood that development environments relying on Forge may cease to work, since they were never intended to work offline. So I have to weigh the potential for wasting effort that could be better spent on future versions rather than past ones. All that said, I have't ruled it out.
Yeah the forge's uncertain future is so sad but idk 1.12.2 seems like dead but i think it still has a solid community who is diehard 1.12.2(including me) so its kinda sad seeing some mods losing support for 1.12.2 while some didnt move on, so it creates a dilemma espacially for me who has a modpack full of 909 mods all handpicked. I nearly achieved my dream game but these support issues are just sad. If I was making money I would definetly pay you a good amount just for the 3 fixes and that 1 req unfortunatly i dont and as you said, you dont have enough time for both. Anways all that to the side thank you for creating such the mod I love customisation and this is dream for me
The thing to remember though is that the development environment is far more than just the jar that players download and without it working there are no more updates that can be done. As it is now, the one reason there are any updates possible is because Forge released an update to make their gradle backwards compatible. But the reality is that when mod authors focus too much on old version those mods get left behind and die out. Usually the only thing that keeps a mod alive is moving forward.
As far as the config issue goes, newer versions don’t have that issue. After 1.12.2, the config system was completely overhauled. Actually, nearly everything after 1.12.2 is easier to work on for the most part.
Just asking, didnt you discover this bug at all,all the way back in 1.12.2 times or nobody noticed
Surprisingly no. However I did end up getting frustrated with things and took a break for awhile
Understandable, but its kinda weird NOBODY reported this issue lol
Isnt there a way for you to just set the modules which are not shoewng right now to be showing on default
If I had to guess why the issue was never reported, on top of people clinging to outdated versions like 1.7.10, and a global pandemic, there’s also the issue of having to create a GitHub account.
Fixing things in 1.12.2 isn’t trivial, especially if it involves the config system, a system so bad that Forge dropped it in the very next version of Minecraft. It would probably be easier to backport their new config system than to use the mess they have in 1.12.2
Do I invest time in a version where my development environment may suddenly stop working again letting all that work go to waste while I fall further behind, or do I keep working on 1.19.2 so I can get closer to an actual release before I move on to supporting Farbric/Quilt/NeoForged? I still don’t even have a system in place for mod integration yet and that won’t be a small task.
Keep moving on, but as i said, isnt there a way to set those on by default if there isnt than its okay
