Minecraft servers/s2/1.21 client upgrade notes

Here are some general instructions for upgrading your local Minecraft instance for the 1.21.10 upgrade. Your individual mileage may vary depending on the specifics of your local configuration. Please feel free to ask for help!

1. Install latest Prism Launcher
2. Enable automatic downloads of the Java runtime
3. Edit the "LizardNet" configuration
4. Go to the Version section
5. Click Minecraft then click Change Version
6. In the dialog box that appears, select 1.21.10 (with type release) and click Ok
7. Click Fabric Loader and click Change Version
8. Select 0.18.2 and click Ok
9. Go to the Mods section and click Check for Updates; note the following:
   • Blendium is no longer required and can be deleted
   • If you have the Modrinth version of Freecam, delete it and switch to the full version
   • CIT Resewn is no longer maintained, which probably breaks the Express Transport Rockets resource pack :(
   • If you have Starlight, delete it and use ScalableLux instead
   • If you have FabriZoom, delete it and use Zoomify instead
   • Indium is no longer needed
   • NBT Tooltip → Nbt Display
   • No Fog → Tweakeroo
   • In general, for any mods that don't have 1.21.10 versions, you'll probably need to disable them
10. Go to the Resource packs section and disable or delete any existing VanillaTweaks resource pack bundle(s), and download the latest resource packs bundle from https://ridley.fastlizard4.org/~fastlizard4/VanillaTweaks_r314402_MC1.21.x.zip
    • You can either install this directly, or upload it to VanillaTweaks to customize its contents and download your own set
    • Note: Cloud Fog Fix resource pack removed as this has been patched in Minecraft 1.21.6, rendering the resource pack unnecessary!
11. Recommended: If desired, disable and delete any existing Fresh Animations resource packs, then install the updated Fresh Animations resource pack from https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/texture-packs/fresh-animations
    • Ensure you download the 1.21.10 versions
    • You must also install the Entity Model Features and Entity Texture Features client-side mods, if you don't already have them
    • Additional extensions recommended: Details, Objects, and Quivers. Install from https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/texture-packs/fresh-animations-extensions, and make sure you follow the instructions there for loading them in Minecraft. However, feel free to skip these, or install others you like as well. Again, ensure you download the 1.21.10 versions
12. If you use a shader pack, such as Complementary Shaders, go to the Shader packs section and disable or delete any existing shaders in Prism Launcher and download 1.21.10 versions
    • Complementary Shaders – Reimagined: https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-reimagined/version/r5.6.1
    • Complementary Shaders – Unbound: https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-unbound/version/r5.6.1
    • If you want to preserve your shader settings, use the View Folder button and copy the .txt file with your config to the new name. For example, if you were previously using Complementary Reimagined v5.2.2, you might copy ComplementaryReimagined_r5.2.2.zip.txt to ComplementaryReimagined_r5.6.1.zip.txt.
