Sams Teach Yourself Mod Development for Minecraft in 24 Hours, Second Edition

Acknowledgments

First of all, I want to thank Rick Kughen, who approached me about writing a book about Minecraft mod development. Before he emailed me with his ideas, I never thought this would be possible. One of the biggest problems with developing mods for a game such as Minecraft is that the code you are working with constantly changes. Every update of Minecraft or Forge, which is the application programming interface (API) used in this book, may change quite a lot of the code. Thankfully, eBooks can be easily updated, and Rick told me about the possibility of having an online database where I could frequently add updates and changes to the book. This made it possible to write this book.

Some other people I should thank are Markus “Notch” ...
