Why quilt?

[lynrayy]

Which features quilt have (and fabric not) that you decided to reject big part of your users on fabric?

[lynrayy]

Fabric have all of those

Fabric does not, what are you talking about
Quilt seems to have made this mod significantly easier to port to later versions. If you want to use the mod, just use Quilt! It supports Fabric mods anyway.

While quilt does load most fabric mods, it does not run them equally well; some do nothing, and others just corrupt your world. Once Quilt is out from beta, I suppose it will be a seamless experience, but for now, it's very early to burn bridges if there is a way to support Fabric.

However, it is your call as the Developer; just please be patient with us, who want to understand your standpoint!

some do nothing, and others just corrupt your world.

I've not had a single mod not work or corrupt a world outside of the fault of the developer of said mod. I helped organize an event with over 500 mods (BlanketCon), with most of them being fabric mods

It already is pretty much a seamless experience, just replace fapi with qfapi and install quilt instead of fabric

can we just start deleting issues like this? it's clogging up issue-space and is really annoying

[adaliszk]

These things are better as discussions anyway 😉

Yes, quilt is only in beta and it can corrupt your world. Fabric is very stable
That's why i'm not risking it and I stop using this mod. Will wait for Fabric alternative

I've been using quilt for a while now.
From my experience it will not corrupt anything

And while I had some issues with the quilted fabric api's once I reported the issues and they got fixed

So if you have any mod that crashes the game on quilt but works fine on fabric go report it as an issue

Quilt is really stable and no one should be worried when using it

If you are worried about corruption. have backups that's something you should have regardless of what modloader you use anyway

do you have any evidence that Quilt has done it before? And yes I definitely agree with @Fauli1221, you should be keeping backups in any case with modding, even Fabric or Forge

[Magicrafter13]

quilt can load all fabric mods

Yeah except when it can't. Oh yeah and when the Quilt-Fabric-API is stuck on 1.20.1 while everyone else is moving on from 1.20.2 to 1.20.3/1.20.4...

I haven't had any issues actually using quilt, but lets not act like using it is a perfect drop-in replacement with no reason to use fabric ever again. Because it's not.

If there are incompatibilities, it is definitely on the part of the developer who limited the mod's availability in *version.
