    In the beginning of its history, Minecraft had Forge, the one big modloader. Now we have Forge, Neoforged, Fabric and its fork Quilt, how did this happen? Where did it go wrong? Who ate my sandwich? Lets dive into this first part of the history of Modded minecraft together!

    I remember trying to learn how to write mods for Minecraft, this was in the olde days, when BetterThanWolves and Redpower where still going strong. And the idea of writing code to interface with a mod loader made sense. Then I looked at Forge's docs (what I could find anyway), and realized my absolutely noobish Java skills wouldn't cut it.
    I did manage to get a glitchy sword into the crafting table, though. And by glitchy I mean it had the power to crash the game upon swinging it. Truly magnificent, basically copied the code from the Diamond Sowrd, so couldn't begin to tell you what I did..

    2:00 Correction Cygnus: Modloader was from the era of numerical ids, so if a mod had conflicting IDs, the game would crash. You could have 4 of the same ore (and you usually did with thermal, buildcraft, gregtech, ect), and the game wouldnt care so long as the IDs were different.

    4:45 this doesn't really make sense, I believe the innovation with mixin was that it allowed modifying code in a more easy and compatible way than anything before. it doesn't really have anything to with textures and if anything had more runtime overhead than jarmods.
    nice video though!

    • @melontini
      @melontini 3 місяці тому +3

      The technical explanations are constantly lacking in these videos.
      It'd be easier to read the paragraph from Fabric's wiki than whatever that texture stuff is. Or ask someone who actually has knowledge on the topic.
      Even funnier is that since 1.13 basically all resource/data pack stuff is handled by the game with no additional intervention.

  • @Nord_Act
    @Nord_Act 3 місяці тому +26

    Ayo, that's some very fancy editing here.
    But I wanted to point out on quite inaccurate description of mixins: mixins allow you to make injections into bytecode in a runtime. In simpler words, add your code on top in already existing one when the game is loaded. It was the opposite of Forge's straight forward patching game's files and allowed mod devs themselves decide what they need to patch rather than relying on hope that eventually their mod loader will add an API for thing they need.
    Also, main reason in performance difference of Forge and Fabric comes from the sizes of their toolchains and patches. Forge has enormous amount of different tools among their libraries and API, a lot of different kinds of patches to the code and on top of that a lot of technical debt that NeoForge is resolving now. Fabric's approach is being as small as possible and trying to not affect vanilla gameplay at all, thus keeping experience without any mods near vanilla itself

  • @redstonewizard08
    @redstonewizard08 Місяць тому +5

    Love the video, but I did want to make a small correction:
    Mixins don't really help with data fetching, they're essentially jar patching at runtime. They patch classes and methods during the load process like jar modding did. Love the video, keep up the great work!

    Jar modding and RML are still used in the beta community, however it’s much easier now because of MultiMC. But there’s also a newer port of Fabric to beta 1.7.3.

    The mixins explanation is wrong. Mixins allow to inject arbitrary code into existing game classes. Before mixins there was no straightforward way to modify game classes in a predictable and compatible manner, leading to the same problem "jar modding" has.
