# 1.2.0 - 1.21.1

• Adopt Spell Engine 1.10.9 & More RPG Library 2.8.0
• BREAKING for modpack/datapack developers:** More RPG Library's namespace was renamed more_rpg_classes -> mrpg_lib (and its advancement root moved to mrpg_lib:root). If you have any data files, loot tables, tags or advancements that reference the old more_rpg_classes:/more_rpg_content: ids from this mod or MRPGL, update them to mrpg_lib:
• Updated internal advancement parents, mod dependency declarations (fabric.mod.json, neoforge.mods.toml)
• Fixed Mipmap Warnings for Lyre & Lute Models & Textures
• Bard equipment is now affiliated loot: it drops more often for players carrying the matching spell book

• Thanks to Daedelus for the PR!
• Ported to Minecraft 1.20.1 (Fabric + Forge 47). NeoForge is replaced by Forge on this line; the same

Forge jar also loads on NeoForge 1.20.1.

• There is only one Bard Spell Book now, not two like on the older Bard 1.20.1 Version.
• Requires the matching 1.20.1 releases of More RPG Library (2.7.2), Spell Engine (1.10.5),

Spell Power (1.6.0), Armor Model API (1.0.0), Ranged Weapon API (2.3.4) and Structure Pool API (1.2.1).

• The harp crossbow keeps its extra volley: Ranged Weapon API has a Forge build on this line, so the

ranged content is available on both loaders.

• Every registry write goes through Forge's RegisterEvent window, so the mod also boots on Forge 47.0-47.3

and on NeoForge 1.20.1, which never unlock the vanilla registries.

• The Storyteller armor is now always registered, so a server without Armory RPGs starts (its set bonus

used to fail to load and abort the startup). Crafting it still requires Armory RPGs.

### Accepted 1.20.1 limitations

• 1.20.1 has no jukebox_song registry, so each Bard music disc carries its song, length and comparator

output on the item itself instead of in a datapack file. The discs play and read exactly as before, but
the ten jukebox_song JSON files are gone and can no longer be edited from a datapack.

• Hymn of the Golden Light no longer applies its generic.max_absorption bonus - that attribute does not

exist before 1.20.5. The effect still grants the same absorption hearts, so the visible behaviour is
unchanged.

• The harp crossbow's extra arrows do not inherit the weapon's enchantments (1.20.1 has no API for it), and

a mob wielding one fires the vanilla single bolt. The main bolt is unaffected.

• Two block types in the village pubs do not exist on 1.20.1 and are substituted: tuff bricks become stone

bricks, and waxed exposed copper grates become exposed copper. The pubs are structurally intact; the
grates simply are not see-through.

• RPG armor is tagged #minecraft:trimmable_armor instead of the 1.21-only per-slot armor tags, and

#minecraft:enchantable/durability is not shipped (1.20.1 uses the vanilla enchantment targets instead).
Trims and Unbreaking work as before.
