Request for permission to make a community-maintained Forge 1.20.1 port of SeedLight Riftways #5

Description

Hello Emafire003!

I'm a Minecraft enthusiast from China, and I recently discovered SeedLight Riftways on Modrinth. I was immediately drawn to the idea behind the mod, especially the immersive way it allows players to travel between worlds and servers through an actual in-game Riftway. I think it's a really wonderful and creative concept.

In fact, I created this GitHub account specifically so that I could reach out to you about this project. :)

However, I noticed that the currently available version seems to be made for Fabric/Quilt and older Minecraft versions, while the modpack I'm working on is based on Forge 1.20.1.

It's currently summer break here in China, and recently I've been spending a lot of my free time working on my first Minecraft modpack, together with a friend. It's a magic-and-adventure themed modpack, and we're trying to make exploration, progression, bosses, different worlds, and other adventure elements feel more connected and immersive.

When I found SeedLight Riftways, I felt that its concept would fit this kind of experience extremely well, and I would really love to use it as part of the modpack to make exploration and world travel more interesting.

We have also taken some time to look through the source code and discuss the technical side of it. From what we can understand so far, we believe that making a Forge 1.20.1 port should be technically feasible.

Because of that, I wanted to respectfully ask for your opinion before we go any further.

If you're comfortable with it, we would like to create and maintain a community-maintained Forge 1.20.1 port of SeedLight Riftways. We would of course keep clear credit to you as the original author, follow the LGPL-3.0 license, and clearly state that our version is an unofficial community port rather than an official continuation of your project.

If I manage to complete the port successfully, I will let you know as soon as possible and tell you where I publish or share it within the Chinese Minecraft community. I would also be happy to send you the release page or source repository so that you can see how the project is being continued.

We also don't want to interfere with any plans you may already have for SeedLight Riftways. If you're planning to continue or port the mod yourself, we would absolutely respect that. And if there are any conditions, preferences, or guidelines you would like us to follow, we'd be very happy to hear them.

This is my first time seriously working on a Minecraft modpack project like this, so being able to include and potentially help continue a project that inspired me would honestly mean a lot.

Thank you very much for taking the time to read this, and also thank you for creating SeedLight Riftways in the first place!

Best wishes from China,
Azukii-n

您好,Emafire003!

我是一名来自中国的 Minecraft 爱好者,最近在 Modrinth 上发现了您制作的 SeedLight Riftways。第一次看到这个 Mod 的时候我就非常喜欢它的设计理念,尤其是通过游戏世界中真实存在的 Riftway,在不同世界与服务器之间进行沉浸式穿行的方式。我觉得这是一个非常棒,也非常有创造力的想法。

事实上,我也是为了能够就这个项目联系到您,才特意创建了这个 GitHub 账号。:)

不过我注意到,目前公开的版本似乎主要面向 Fabric/Quilt 以及较早的 Minecraft 版本,而我们正在制作的整合包则基于 Forge 1.20.1。

现在正值中国这边的暑假,最近我正在和一位朋友一起努力制作自己的第一个 Minecraft Mod 整合包。它主要以魔法与冒险为主题,我们希望能够让探索、成长、Boss、不同世界以及其他冒险内容之间拥有更加自然、更加沉浸的联系。

当我发现 SeedLight Riftways 时,我觉得它的设计理念非常适合这样的体验,因此很希望能够将它作为整合包的一部分,让玩家在探索以及不同世界之间的旅行变得更加有趣。

我们最近也花了一些时间阅读和研究了项目的源代码,并讨论了一下相关的技术实现。从目前的理解来看,我们认为将它移植到 Forge 1.20.1 在技术上应该是可行的。

因此,在真正开始进行后续工作之前,我希望能够先认真地征求您的意见。

如果您愿意的话,我们希望能够制作并继续维护一个 SeedLight Riftways 的 Forge 1.20.1 社区移植版本。我们会明确保留并注明您作为原作者的署名,遵守项目的 LGPL-3.0 开源许可证,同时也会明确说明该版本属于非官方的社区维护移植版,而不是您本人发布的官方后续版本。

如果我最终能够顺利完成这个移植版本,我会第一时间向您告知,并告诉您它被发布或分享到中国的哪个 Minecraft 玩家社区中。如果您愿意的话,我也很乐意把发布页面或者源代码仓库一并发给您,让您可以随时看到这个项目之后是如何继续维护的。

当然,我们也完全不希望影响您自己对 SeedLight Riftways 的后续计划。如果您已经有继续更新、移植或重新开发这个 Mod 的计划,我们一定会尊重您的安排。如果您对于移植、发布、署名或者其他方面有任何要求或建议,我们也非常愿意遵循。

这是我第一次如此认真地制作一个 Minecraft Mod 整合包,所以如果能够在自己的项目中使用这个让我很喜欢的作品,甚至有机会帮助它继续在新的版本中被玩家体验到,对我来说会是一件很有意义的事情。

非常感谢您愿意花时间阅读这些内容,也非常感谢您曾经制作出 SeedLight Riftways 这个很棒的 Mod!

来自中国的祝福,
Azukii-n
