Release v1.2.1 (for 1.19.3) [Fabric/Forge]

Changes and Fixes

• Remove "speak different slots with same item content" function in "held item (hotbar) narration", since it will cause the mod to speak in more places it shouldn't. And... there is no alternative way to reimplement this function.

Develeoper Notes

Sincere apologies for this bug. Subsequent non-bug-fixing releases will be in beta testing state for a week (in form of GitHub's pre-release and Discord's mc-beta-testing channel) before being formally released (in form of GitHub's release and Discord's mc-updates-and-announcements channel). Hope this will narrow the scope of negative impacts caused by newly introduced bugs.

Full Changelog: v1.2.0-1.19...v1.2.1-1.19

Release v1.2.0 (for 1.20.1) [Fabric/Forge]

Mod download links are attached under "Assets" at the end of the release, instead of under "Download Links" section.

Continually collecting ideas for using sound effects to make the game easier, like existing "Fall Detector" and "POI Scan". If you notice good ideas in other visually impaired accessibility games that we can borrow for this mod, please contact the developers in our Discord server or left a comment in this issue, thank you. Some ideas already under consideration are listed in this issue.

New Features

Camera Look straight Up and Down

Thanks to Trix for the idea. Hope these two new keys can help you in building structures and exploring the world.

Keybindings:

• Right Alt + double Look Up Key or Look Straight Up Key (default: Keypad 0): Move the camera to the look above head direction.
• Right Alt + double Look Down Key or Look Straight Down Key (default: Keypad . (decimal, dot)): Move the camera to the look down at feet direction.

New Brazilian Portuguese Translation

Thanks to Edson.

Changes and Fixes

• Improve held item (hotbar) narration: speak empty slots, speak different slots with same item content.
• The direction and power of Redstone Wire are now be spoken in Read Crosshair feature.
• Fix a bug that Find Closest Water/Lava Source will recognize the water/lava fall as a valid still fluid block. But now you can't use it to find a waterfall to swim upward, if you used to do so.

Develeoper Notes

• Finally we have an agreement on same mod version number for all game versions.
• We merely change dependency mods (Fabric API and Architectury API) version, so make the download links folded can be more convienient.
• Mod download links are attached under "Assets" at the end of the release, instead of under "Download Links", since if you download this mod from here (the GitHub), it seems unnecessary to add download links for this mod at the "Modrinth" and "Curseforge" platforms.
