You can now specify which number format sideboard will use by new numberFormat property in the sideboard function, it is BlankFormat by default
now using **Kotlin 1.9.23**

silk-network now uses a FallbackProvider to inject a stream codec provided by each type of packet definition
each custom silk-network packet still corresponds exactly to a custom payload packet with the given idea
duplicated packet IDs will now result in a warning if they clash on lookup

checkInvulnerability (Called when a regular invulnerability check is being performed. This event allows listeners to modify the result of that check.)
reworked **player (network) events**:
split quitDuringLogin into quitDuringLogin and quitDuringConfiguration (because of Minecraft now allowing for configuration at any time in-game)
added reason property to quit events
internal changes:
silk-network packets now use the new payload based custom packets under the hood
silk-persistence now uses a workaround for bypassing the datafixerupper from running on internal SavedData

A small release fixing an issue with client commands, which appeared in Silk 1.9.4 due to the Minecraft 1.19.3 update.

[1.9.4] 1.9.4 by jakobkmar on Oct 09, 2026

Download

Even though it is only a minor version jump, this is **a major minecraft update under the hood**, so most mods need to be updated.
Older Silk versions for 1.19 (Silk 1.9.3 and lower) do not work for 1.19.3.

Internally Mojang changed major parts of the Registry and Command System, and there a changes all over the place since Minecraft 1.19.3 already contains several 1.20 features as opt in.

[1.9.2] 1.9.2 by jakobkmar on Oct 09, 2026

Download

## Sideboard API changes

added updatable sideboard line
added emptyLine function
allow to pass a normal flow as a line
added updatingLine function as a replacement for the old lineChangingPeriodically

all deprecations have quick fixes for alternatives*
deprecated SimpleSideboardLine and ChangingSideboardLine with replacements
deprecated line { }, literalLine and FlowCollector<Component>.emitLiteralText

## Events Changes

added player login events to core (still part of the experimental events API, actual docs and info will follow)
added entity events namespace as a starting and extension point for core and custom entity events

## Dependencies

Updated to fabric-language-kotlin 1.8.3+kotlin.1.7.10, and increased the minimum required version to 1.8.0+kotlin.1.7.0.

Download

compatibility with Minecraft 1.19.2 and 1.19.1
a pretty big change is that the event API is now included in Silk, it is still experimental though, which is also the reason for this not being a major version bump and documentation being not that good yet
you can now convert Minecraft random sources to Kotlin randoms and vice-versa
