Minecraft Family Edition (MCFE) — Changelog

1.21.1 NeoForge Modpack Open Beta: September 25, 2026 | Public Release: October 23, 2026

Added

• Sussy Sniffers
• Treeplacer
• ParCool+ / Compatibility Addon (NeoForge Edition) added alongside Parcool to resolve a player model/animation conflict.
• Hauled to Hearth including dedicated Hardcore mode balancing. Full changelog maintained on the mod's own page.

Removed

• Via Romana unused, removed from the pack.
• Tectonic removed (~2 weeks ago); combined with Hybrid Aquatic's ocean biomes it was producing overly fragmented "island world" generation.
• Two legacy mods removed after their functionality was absorbed by another mod update; associated unused shared library removed as well.

Fixed

• Grass overspawning/breakage caused by End and Nether updates (live for about a week).
• Sparse Structures re-enabled and confirmed working, resolving the earlier issue where structures spawned excessively far apart.
• Distant Horizons LOD-through-geometry rendering issue — identified as a documented Euphoria Patches + Distant Horizons shader-compositing conflict; resolved by reloading shaders. Distant Horizons was also rolled back a version as a performance precaution.

Known Issues

• Willow/Walnut species renames (Goat Willow, Weeping Willow, Peach Leaf Willow, Black Walnut, Brazilian Walnut) — content is in the pack, but the naming changes are not yet taking effect in-game. Investigating.
• Sparse Structures' underlying spawn-distribution/competition issue is only worked around, not fully resolved.
• Alex's Mobs in-game book crashes due to references to mobs removed via config.
• Main menu backgrounds are still placeholders and will need to be replaced ahead of open beta.
