Minecraft 1.9 mod updates will be “less painful”

The update to 1.8 was painful for modders of Minecraft, with so much code in the backend of the program changing that a lot of mods would have required a complete restructure to continue working. Thus most modders just didn’t update, which has resulted in a lot of modpacks using 1.6.4 or 1.7.2 versions of the game to keep everything working.

With the 1.9 update coming, Mojang have decided that there won’t be such a big leap this time. Taking to Twitter staff member SeargeDP assured players that because there will be mainly gameplay changes in this patch, it will be “less painful” for modders.

 

This of course still mean that you need to update mods to work with 1.8 first, but at least there won’t be too much more work to be done to make your mods work with the next version. Heck, you can probably update to work with 1.9 when it comes out, ‘skipping’ 1.8 entirely.

 

One of the gameplay changes that was mentioned will be an update to the Ender Dragon, making it behave more like its console counterpart.
