DEV-LOG #1

Version 25dt01a
This is a Development log, the very first one of the entire project. Essentially in this article you can find direct explaination related to how the mod is developed, ideas and even collabs!
This time the main subject is version 1.3 and its first snapshot, 25dt01a.
Previously, when Minecraft had yearly updates, the mod was updated frequently, adding patch of feature from time to time; this process was difficult to manage, so, in the end, I merged everything into one big version, v1.0.
Then I started developing version 1.2, skipping version 1.1. The reason behind this choice was a bug-related issue with one of the feature I was programming, the Villager Ghost.
Version 1.2 had only two snapshots, not the smartest of ideas, however I managed to make it the biggest update of the mod.
So, what about version 1.3?
This time, instead of sparse updates I've decided to create big, complete and stable yearly updates, the complete opposite of Minecraft Drops.
In particular this version is planned to be realeased by december! (while version 1.4 will be, hopefully, released on september 2026!).
Version 1.3 is mainly related to Minecraft 1.21.9, the Copper Age Drop, so there will be Redstone and Copper features, as well as tons of tweaks related to previous drops, such as Pale Garden Features and derivatives.
It wouldn't be a Details Update without…details! Version 1.3 will in fact also add a special set of blocks based on Fireflies, and two new Mushroom fibers coloured sets!
Apart from all of this, v1.3 is also a bridge-version from previously developed things to new, better features.
Currently there are no videos planned. The BlockyRick project has ended in 2024 and this mod, Details Update is the only last thing which is still developed , and is now part of a group of personal projects called Rick's Studios - creative names, I know ;)
I've always wanted to make a mod which could be fun and useful for players, so I've created features with resources kindly shared by other Minecraft creators:
For version 1.3 I have not planned any collab, but I hope I will create new features with other Creators in the future!
Your help is fundamental to create a great project!
