Needs action on an existing world:

  • [read before updating] #47 Fixed a critical issue where microblocks were randomly transforming into Blood Rune slabs. The problem was caused by unknown material names falling back to id 0 and a race condition in single-player where the client handshake cleared shared name maps while the server was reading them. Now unknown materials resolve to a placeholder and redundant handshakes are skipped in integrated mode.
    No step is needed before you update, but do not expect a repair. Microblocks that already turned into Blood Rune slabs in a singleplayer world are permanently changed on disk and have to be broken and put back by hand. From 2.9.0-beta-3 on, no further microblocks are converted, and a microblock whose material is genuinely missing shows the purple-and-black missing texture instead of silently becoming a Blood Rune.

New Features ​

  • #53 Added ISBRHPart interface and updated MultipartRenderer and TileMultipart to support ISBRH-based rendering for parts that implement the interface. - @Cardinalstars

  • #48 Added ItemMicroPartTransformer and PosteaCompat classes that implement PostEA transformer integration to remap microblock material IDs during mod transitions. - @FourIsTheNumber
    • Added: ItemMicroPartTransformer, PosteaCompat integration
  • #38 Added dynamic render option to TMultiPart interface and updated TileMultipart render logic to use the new option instead of doesTick dependency. - @Worive

Changes ​

  • #50 Refactored render pass handling in BlockMultipart, MultipartRenderer, and TileMultipart to improve thread-safety during concurrent rendering operations. - @mitchej123
  • #45 Changed BlockMultipart material definition from Material.rock to a more fitting alternative material class. - @DarkShadow44

Bug Fixes ​

  • #47 Modified DefaultContent, ItemMicroPart, and MicroMaterialRegistry to resolve unknown material names to MissingMicroMaterial placeholder instead of id 0, and updated packet handlers to skip redundant id-map handshakes on integrated clients. - @Caedis
    • Added: MissingMicroMaterial placeholder class
    • Fixed: microblocks becoming Blood Rune slabs randomly
    • Migration: No step is needed before you update, but do not expect a repair.
