Hotbars+ v2.0 Prerelease 3

This is the third official prerelease build of Hotbars+ v2. It is still missing some features from v1.x currently (such as load and save failure detection), however I hope to bring them back as I get closer to the final version.

What's new from v2.0-pre2:

• Fixes very large bug that caused 1.19.x support to not actually work properly
• Adds toast notification support
• Fixes the configuration system so that it actually does its intended job correctly

Hotbars+ v2.0 Prerelease 2

This is the second official prerelease build of Hotbars+ v2. It is still missing some features from v1.x currently (such as load and save failure detection), however I hope to bring them back as I get closer to the final version.

What's new from v2.0-pre1:

• Fixes bug where trying to view the list of cached hotbars in 1.14.x/1.15.x crashed the game
• Fancy new icons for the hooks for 1.14/1.15, 1.16, and 1.17/1.18
• Code cleanup
• Overhauls how the mod hooks into the vanilla system
• 1.19.x support

Hotbars+ v2.0 Prerelease 1

This is the first official prerelease build of Hotbars+ v2. It is missing some features from v1.x currently (such as load and save failure detection), however I hope to bring them back as I get closer to the final version.

The overhaul began in January 2022 after I became increasingly frustrated with the lack of support for versions of Minecraft newer or older than 1.17.1. In the span of about 3 months, this is what I was able to accomplish. This update rewrites a massive portion of the mod to support multiple versions and also improves how certain things were implemented compared to v1.x.

What's new from v1.x:

• Cache system (switching back and forth between loaded hotbar files will no longer cause lag spikes, but loading them from disk still does)
• Keybind support for the Creative Inventory GUI
• Multi-version support (works on 1.14.4 to 1.18.2)
• System tray support
• User-friendly backup names
• Yet another gigantic capacity increase (shifted from Long to BigInteger)

Notes:

• The mod should also work with More Toolbars, another mod that expands saved hotbar capacity, so in case you still want more space, you can get it.
• Backups will no longer be saved in /.minecraft/backups, instead it will save them in /.minecraft/hotbars/backups.

Hotbars+ v1.3.1

This is a minor update that updates the mod to 1.17.1 exclusively. I will look into splitting version-specific things out of the core itself and into their own separate module, but for now this will do.

Hotbars+ v1.3

This update makes a bunch of significant improvements under the hood, including an extreme increase in total capacity (ludicrous levels now). While this is only for 1.16.5, this is going to change in future versions.

v1.3-RC3

This is a prerelease version. It may not be entirely stable. I've inherited the changes from previous release candidates because a release wasn't drafted for those.

Changes:

• Multiple bugfixes
• Improved javadoc documentation
• Changes the mod ID from "multihotbar" to "hotbarsplus".
• Expands the total page capacity significantly (negative pages are now possible)

Hotbars+ v1.3-Pre4

This is a prerelease version. It may not be entirely stable.

Additions:

• Adds an experimental new keybind for backups. It isn't set to anything by default, so you'll need to bind it yourself.

Changes:

• Additional code clean-up and documentation
• Cuts off support for versions after 1.16.5 because clients would crash in 1.17+ as a result of mappings differences.
• Replaces the backup button's icon (initially✍) with a new icon (a floppy disk).
• Toast notifications now use custom textures instead of relying on the built-in icons.

Hotbars+ v1.3-Pre3

This is a prerelease version. It may not be entirely stable.

Additions:

• The mod now has the ability to show toast notifications alongside the standard overlay notification.
• The mod now has a configuration that you can change settings in.
• The client will now display a notification if it fails to load or save a hotbar file properly.
• If the mod detects legacy hotbar files (from when it was called MultiHotbar) in your game's root directory, it will ask you on startup if you would like to migrate them to the hotbars folder.
• The mod will warn you in the logs if it finds an unsupported setup (e.g. using unsupported mods).
• Adds Javadoc documentation for many parts of the mod's code.

Changes:

• Increases the hotbar page capacity from 2,147,483,648 total pages to a whopping 9,223,372,036,854,775,808 total pages.
• Updates the README document.
• General code cleanup

Removals:

• Removes More Toolbars from the list of incompatible mods. While it is still not recommended that you use the two together, it can be done if you really need the extra capacity.
• Removes the repository used for LibGui (again).

Hotbars+ v1.2

This update polishes the mod quite a bit (adds proper copyright notices, gives it an actual icon, removes redundant/unused code, etc) and removes support for versions of Minecraft below 1.16.5.

Do not use this mod with More Toolbars, they aren't compatible and could corrupt your hotbar file.
