Yes, Version 20d1 (coming soon) will be designed for both 1.20.5 and 1.20.6, given the features we've seen in that release so far.
It's exactly the same deal as it was in 1.20.4.

I've been busy for the past 3 days. Sorry for the inactivity, but I'm back!

1.20.5 has just been released! Remember that the data packs SGrave, Duplication with Star and Cheaper Nametags won't be compatible with 1.20.5. Other data packs may not work as well though.

I'll be seeing "Where's 1.20.5" comments soon.
When that comes, I'll save a link to this post as a response so I don't have to copy and paste the same post over and over again. Here goes:

I manage 20 projects currently. Short version: It takes time. (Progress updates on Discord)
Long version:
My updates take time to complete as I properly go through each of them to see which features I'd need to improve to match the current version's meta, if there is any.
I'm also using latest techniques available on the version I'm designing it for to make sure my packs are the best they can be on release, and it takes time to discover what these new techniques are.
My datapack creator tool Scripter helps, but like any tool, it needs a person to be used to make stuff with.

Bit of a long default response, but the recap is the same across all my releases.

A small comment on the massive changes 1.20.5 is bringing to the table and it's massive effects to datapacks and custom maps as a whole:

I think the hardest thing with making the ideas I wanted to make happen into a datapack is that a lot of the times it's really really hard to do so efficiently, and some other times, Mojang would step in and mess with your stuff, and without the reach needed to overrule the thing they've irreversibly changed, you kinda just have to live with the storm.

It's understandable if because of that or any other reason, creators would prefer mods over datapacks since they can do what they want on a version they choose to do it at (basically removing Mojang's effect on things, at least partially, if you've read some of my secret Patreon dev posts), and if they choose to do so, we should still support them for it, because at the end of all this, they've spent the hours that could've been spent in other ventures that'll most likely give them way more money, to make sure you get the best things possible, in the best way that they can.
(Wait, I've been making datapacks for 5 years? Time flies, man.)

As for me? I'll just live with the storm and do my best to make sure all my projects I've made in the 1.20x series get a proper update to 1.20.5. I personally find the storm to be a challenge, a problem that I'm slowly overcoming with Scripter - which, in a way, is like the hand-crafted ship I'd built to weather this storm.
But also because I wanted to experience the latest stuff the game has to offer with the tweaks that I've personally made to enhance the game the way I find fun to play.

But anyways, enough of that, the updates are coming.
I'll leave update details on Discord if you wanted to check those out.

You honestly thought I was also moving to mods, don't ya?
Reply to this one if you think I was about to say something like that at any point in the post.

TheDiamondPlayables said 2024-04-21 21:34:16

I know that technically a datapack can stay at a given release too, but unlike mods, datapacks are more reliant on the tools that Mojang provides in each new release. So something I wanted to make back in 1.13 for example, can't really be made efficiently until way later on. It's kinda why I have a long list of old ideas. I just kept them all, even when I know it's not doable, so when it is, I can start messing with it.

At some point I'll make it possible so everyone could quickly make packs with my custom datapack creator Scripter.
I'm not confident with showing the tool as it is now, as it was only built to suit my weird style, so it likely won't help anyone as it is.
But someday, when I have a lot more time to spend on datapack shenanigans, I'll work on a version that can be used by a more diverse set of people, and release it by then.

Anywho, 1.20.5 is coming.
Working on upgrading all my projects, more news in the Discord Server. See you soon!

Day 37: Important Announcement

1.20.5 is coming out!

It bring a few changes and additions including the wolf variants and armadillos and other small stuff BUT:

It brings HUGE technical changes that will probably break 85% of data packs, including mine.

This means that most of my data packs won't work on 1.20.5.

Data packs that will definitely not work: SGrave, Duplication with Star (previously known as Nether Star Duplication) and Cheaper name tags.
Other data packs might break too.

It will take a long time to upgrade my data packs to 1.20.5, but don't worry, feel free to use the automated tools that upgrade data packs to 1.20.5, that might work!

Guys I just meant to sleep for 1.5 hours.

But I slept for a whole 5.5 hours—And not to mention, but I skipped my English class, too.

It is 9:00 PM right now and I just woke up.

We deserve at least ONE THING after 8 years

Sul4ur replied to Ender Sparkle's comment below 2024-04-14 15:15:39

No. The reason Minecraft gets boring is because you're just not creative enough.

Also the lore is that end is not supposed to be a crazy dimension. It's supposed to be just a silent dimension where no one would like to live.

Overall, I think that an end update just won't fit Minecraft well enough, unlike the Nether update.

Ender Sparkle replied to Sul4ur's comment below 2024-04-13 16:14:04

1. Like everything you would imagine. Basically 1.16 but for the end. Not EXACT RECOLOR, but the concepts. Maybe some stuff from mods. And MCD - End here is EXACTLY how I always wanted it to be.

2. What lore? WHAT LORE? End is always depicted ast the villain, but aside from the Orb of Dominance it isn't that evil. Endermen? Mostly neutral. Shulkers? Pacifist while in peaceful mode. Endermites? They are pests, even Endermen want their doom. The dragon? It's angry, scared of us. She acts in self defense. We kill Ender Dragon for basically no reason, let alone any lore. There are Ender Dragon heads for sure, but is Jean really the last dragon? And OoD doesn't have ANY background story. It just exists with no reason and unsubstantiated goal.

3. Idk the Mojang stuff they always do. Some small additions to all 3 dimensions, perhaps.

BONUS: You know why Minecraft gets more and more boring? (you can throw stones at me I don't care) Because Mojang adds too much early- and mid-game content. We need more post-dragon content and any post-elytra stuff too.

Sul4ur replied to Ender Sparkle's comment below 2024-04-13 16:01:48

Just think about it:

What "huge" things would you add to the end?
Doesn't it somewhat mess with the lore?
What would Mojang do after the end update?

The reason the layout of keyboards isn't ABCDEF and instead is QWERTY is to seperate the most common used words and prevent them from jamming together.

(read to the end before you comment something political)

The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility.

As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English".

In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter.

There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.

In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible.

Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling.

Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent "e" in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.

By the 4th yer peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" with "z" and "w" with "v".

During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou" and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil hav a reil sensi bl riten styl.

Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi TU understand ech oza. Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru.

Und efter ze fifz yer, ve vil al be speking German like zey vunted in ze forst plas.

Gee, I wonder what's the average time on how long it would take for an Important bug to be fixed. I got this bug marked as Important in 1.20.4 when I realized that it broke a Villager Names feature in a way that can't really be worked around efficiently, even with the new stuff available in 1.20.5, and somehow it survived the full 1.20.5 snapshot cycle without even being noticed.

Anywho, if you're wondering why the workaround still exists in Villager Names 1.20.5, this is why. I'll leave a note in the pack's Update Log by then as well.
