# Changes
- Support for minecraft 1.20.2/4!
- Modpack now updates as soon as possible making updates *almost* completely seamless!
- Separate window popups are gone!
- Re-written modpack hosting to [netty](https://github.com/netty/netty).
- AutoModpack doesn't require new separate port anymore, by default it injects into minecraft network IO (configurable)
- Downloads should be faster and should be less resource intensive.
- Reduced a lot requests to Modrinth and CurseForge API's.
- Modpack generation should be faster.
- Switched from [Preloading Tricks](https://modrinth.com/mod/preloading-tricks) to our own implementation due to requiring more invasive code.
- Switched from [fabric-networking-api-v1](https://github.com/FabricMC/fabric/tree/1.20.4/fabric-networking-api-v1) to our implementation based of that API but made that it injects before it and we no longer need to worry about other mods kicking us from server before letting download a modpack - previously we were dealing with that by disabling those kicks by key words which wasn't great solution...
- Switched from using [Forgified Fabric API](https://modrinth.com/mod/forgified-fabric-api) in forge version to our own implementations allowing me to port to different forge versions.
- Support for other forge minecraft versions like 1.18.2, 1.19.2 and neoforge 1.20.2, 1.20.4!
- New wildcard, now you can use `!` to exclude some file in `syncedFiles`.
- Removed `excludeSyncedFiles` from config.
- Mods are now only stored inside automodpack folders.
- Fixed a lot of issues.
- More modular gradle setup.
# Known issues:
- Quilt build is not ready
- Auto excluding server side mods doesn't do anything
- [Connector](https://modrinth.com/mod/connector) - fabric on forge - mods won't load
