Dinnerbone:“资源包”大一统，“材质包”将谢幕 - Minecraft(我的世界)中文论坛

作为前往Minecraft Mod API的重要一步，同时兼顾代码的清晰度，我们将会移除材质包系统，以全新的资源包系统代替。最终，所有的Mod（将来会称为插件，这个插件与Bukkit的插件是两个概念）也都会拥有自己的资源包，原版游戏本身也会有自己的资源包，玩家可以同时使用多个资源包。资源包能够更改任何种类的资源：从音效到字体，不仅仅只有材质而已。我们也将一个新的metadata格式包括其中，这样我们（与Mod们）就能将一整套新的资源类型添加进游戏，而且难度极低。不幸的是，这意味着目前所有的材质包都将过时……我们会开始制作另一个类似之前unstitcher.jar的小工具以协助格式转换，这次大改也应该是可预见的未来里最后一个大突破了。新格式也能够使我们轻松辨别资源包是否过期，也可以强制使用过期资源包。
