CraftEngine 26.5 – A Big Update!

This is a major update for CraftEngine. From now on, versions will follow a year.month.revision format.

We’ve made over 80,000 lines of code changes and more than 600 commits, so instead of a long changelog, please check the wiki to see what’s new.

A few important things to know:

• stem_block now has a filter for the block below it. Check the wiki to update your settings, or use the new default config to fix melon stem issues.
• The feature placer changed a lot back in version 26.1. If you want to keep using the default feature config, please extract the updated default config file.
• There are many API changes in this update – and they’re stable enough to support updates for the next whole year.
