This update gives support for Minecraft 1.21.2, and adds a brand new screen which shows the song that's playing! The screen is still in its early infancy, so when a song isn't playing there's nothing on screen and that'll be changed in the next update, but check it out when some music is playing with Mod Menu!
Main additions
- Animate the background so that it scrolls from right to left
- Add a Music Screen, complete with music metadata, timer widget, & progress bar
Version Support
- Support Minecraft 1.21.2
Changes to Natives
- Update natives to Catculator Version 0.2.0
- Move cache of natives to
.cache/kit_tunes
for improved transparency - Parse sound files using Rust to find the length of tracks
Misc/build-time changes
- Prevent certain concurrency issues and config/music events
- Upgrade to Quilt Loom 1.8
This release adds Rust to the mix (the programming language, not the game!) as well as a brand-new logo, updated colors, and home screen! There will also be more graphical changes in the next few updates, so stay tuned and follow the mod on Modrinth!
