Changelog
All notable changes to LK Creator are documented here.
v5.0 — April 4, 2026 (Current)
Features
- Smart version detection (ItemsAdder): The Converter now automatically detects whether your YAML file follows the legacy format or the 4.0.13+ format, and adjusts the conversion accordingly — no manual selection needed
- Item type breakdown preview: The preview modal now shows a visual breakdown of your item types before converting, e.g. “3 Sprites, 2 Blocks, 1 Armor Set, 1 Furniture” with icons for each category
- Conflict resolution panel: When an incompatibility is detected (e.g. Trident → Oraxen), instead of showing a plain warning the converter now offers actionable alternatives: convert to a generic 3D item, skip the entry, or export it as a YAML comment
- Partial conversion mode: You can now select exactly which items to convert from your file. A checkbox list appears in the preview step so you can include or exclude individual items before exporting — including auto-flagged unsupported ones
- Config merge / append mode: Instead of always generating a new file, you can now upload an existing target config alongside your source config. The converter will append the converted items into the existing file without overwriting anything already there
- Diff intelligence in code editor: Lines that were approximately mapped (no direct equivalent) are now highlighted in yellow, while exact mappings are highlighted in green, making it easy to review and manually fix uncertain conversions
- Fishing rod generator: Added a new generator for fishing rod items
- ItemsAdder config system: Added a dedicated config system for ItemsAdder supporting both the legacy format and 4.0.13+
- Persistent file uploads: Uploaded files now survive page reloads, tab closes, and browser restarts across the entire app (Generator, Converter, Validator, and Merger). Files are stored locally in your browser using IndexedDB and automatically restored when you return — no more re-uploading after an accidental refresh
Changes
- Fixed several incorrect field mappings in the Converter
- Improved component layout and responsiveness for larger screen sizes
- Fixed a config issue in the armor generation section
- Fixed fishing rod generator not being accessible (redirected to landing page instead of showing the form)
v4.9 — March 23, 2026
Features
- Minecraft server sync: Added a new integration that lets you link your Minecraft server and automatically upload your generated configs directly — no need to connect to Minecraft or your hosting panel manually
- Onboarding guides: Added personalized guides for new users, as well as contextual guides that appear the first time you try a feature, making it easier to get started without prior experience
- Changelog in navbar: The navbar now includes a changelog indicator so you can always see what’s new and what has been fixed without leaving the app
- Converter — ZIP/RAR upload (Pro only): The Converter now supports uploading your full resource pack as a
.zipor.rarfile and migrating it automatically to the plugin format of your choice - History & file archive: Added a new History section that stores all your previously generated files and cart configurations, so you can revisit or re-download them at any time
- Docs improvements: Added new sections and improved existing ones across the documentation site for clearer guidance and better coverage
