Architectury Loom 1.13

Primarily a merge of the upstream updates 1.12 and 1.13.

See their changelogs: 1.12, 1.13 on Discord

Architectury Loom 1.11

• Requires Java 21, mods can still target Java 8 and any game versions
• Config cache support for more tasks
• quilt.mod.json5 support
• Major upstream changes: Unpick v3 support for newer Yarn builds, built-in RenderDoc support, custom mappings in remap(Sources)Jar tasks

See also: upstream changelog

Architectury Loom 1.7

• Stabilised NeoForge and Quilt support
• Stabilised RunConfigSettings.mods
• Bug fixes, see commit log

Architectury Loom 1.6

No downstream feature updates, only bug fixes. See Fabric's changelog for a list of upstream changes.

Architectury Loom 1.5

Changed

• Official Fabric TinyRemapper is now used instead of our custom fork. Support for MRJ jars (jars with classes that support different Java versions) should be better.

Upstream changes

• Full support for using Tiny Remapper to remap mixins
  • Opt-in via loom.mixin.useLegacyMixinAp = false in build.gradle
  • Offers a small speedup compared to the mixin AP
• and more features and bug fixes at https://github.com/FabricMC/fabric-loom/releases/tag/1.5

Architectury Loom 1.4

Added

• NeoForge support
• Check for using MCPConfig/NeoForm (and Forge/NeoForge) data with the incorrect game version
  • Can be disabled using the loom.allowMismatchedPlatformVersion project property
• Support for Minecraft Forge on MC 1.20.2+

Changed

• Improved log messages for experimental platforms

Fixed

• Missing field names when the type has been changed (#162)

Architectury Loom 1.3

Added

• A way to configure ModSettings per run config in Forge projects. This feature is useful for Forge mods with separate dev-only source sets (e.g. data generation). (#144 + #145)
  Code example:

  loom {
    runs {
      data {
        // <data run config boilerplate>
        mods { // if non-empty, replaces the "global" mod settings container
          tinypotato {
            sourceSet sourceSets.main
            sourceSet sourceSets.data
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }

Fixed

• Order of jars in fabric.mod.json depending on HashSet iteration order (#155)
• JIJ not working for Forge libraries without a mods.toml (#152)

Architectury Loom 1.2

• Added new loom.forge.useForgeLoggerConfig property to use FML's logger config instead of Loom's. Usage:

loom {
  forge {
    useForgeLoggerConfig = true
  }
}

• Upstream changes:
  • Updated to Gradle 8.1
  • Better library handling, including automatic upgrade of LWJGL for Java 19+
  • Updated Kotlin metadata remapping
  • Run configs can now override the main class set by the mod loader

Architectury Loom 1.0

Architectury Loom 1.0

🎆 New features 🎆

• genForgePatchedSources for generating Minecraft sources using Forge's toolchain
  • Includes Forge's own comments in the code!
  • Note: does not include any javadoc from mappings yet
• Loom's MCPConfig executor no longer executes unnecessary steps

🚫 Removed features 🚫

One focus of 1.0 was to simplify Loom's API and remove duplicate
features that were handled by multiple APIs.

• ForgeLocalMod and loom.forge.localMods in favour of using loom.mods, which also works on Fabric
• LaunchProviderSettings and loom.launches in favour of using run configs

🐞 Bug fixes 🐞

• Fixed Forge's own sources being replaced by decompiled ones
• Fixed decompiled game sources on Forge not having javadoc or parameters
• @Overwrite mixins from dependencies not working on Forge (also automatically included in other Loom versions)
• Fixed Tiny v1 mappings crashing on Fabric

Also includes everything from Fabric Loom 1.0, go check out their changelog!
