DaiChangMagicAPI
by Seraphina-DC
DaiChangMagicAPI is a Forge library for Minecraft 1.20.1 that brings a 1.12.2 CoreMod style system to that version, with extra interfaces for developers.
What it does
The library carries the CoreMod approach of Minecraft 1.12.2 over to version 1.20.1, so mods built on it can use the same core hooks. Beyond the port, it introduces new interfaces that other mods can implement. The package is aimed at developers who want to write core-level changes for this version without rebuilding that system from scratch.
Its feature set includes changing the color of game windows and setting the border color of a window. Both are exposed as functions a dependent mod can call. The library is a Forge file for 1.20.1 only, so it does not cover Fabric, NeoForge or other game versions.
The server and every player need the mod installed. The code is under All rights reserved and is not open source, and the latest Forge file, 0.0.2, was published on 2025-12-03.
