Well since it's Thanksgiving weekend and collages are in break I am VERY hopeful that AO will be able to finally have an opportunity to update to 1.12.2.
I feel we have all been very patient and even defensive of AO so if he cannot update I would humbly ask if he would be willing to release the code to another coder willing to help update it. I am certain there would be someone willing on the Spigot board. I like so many others feel this IS the best mod/option available for the x-ray feature and as an admin have depended on it for a few years now and would really hate to see it die!
It's been only three weeks since AO last showed his face. Before that, he was gone for a few months after he updated to 1.12.0 and 1.12.1. Before that, he was gone for a few weeks or months as well.
The thing is, AmbientOcclusion has consistently returned. I trust that he is the kind of person who would tell us if he would permanently leave his modding days behind and until he says so, or goes MIA for at least 1,5 years, I will not call this mod dead.
Emoniph, however...
At this point, I just really hope that AO makes XRay open source.
Then again, most of the time, bugs will never be fixed, instead, people will start saying "USE THIS OPEN SOURCE XRAY MOD!" and prioritize quantity over quality.
Did you know that every time someone whines about it not being out fast enough, AO delays working on it for another two weeks? So keep griping, it'll never come out. ;-) (#jkjk, of course, but I wouldn't blame AO if it were true!) ;-)
i dont see anyone "blaming" AO here. We just think he discontinued his work or he put it on hold. And some people suggeted he should hand the project to another more active dev.
Mojang also announced the "Aquatic Update" will be released in the spring of 2018. The time between the Minecraft updates seems to have been pretty consistent with updates typically every 3-5 months (see mcversions.net).
So, considering 1.12.2 was released 9/18/2017, Mojang may have a Christmas update to go along with all the other Minecraft goodies on everyones wishlist!

Isn't the aquatic update supposed to be after 1.13? I thought they said that 1.13 is simply bug fixes to help move forward to 1.14.
Actually all the keys still work but they all just activate fullbright lol

i think by now it's clear this has been abandoned, or has it?
Who are you to know everything better than the other people? Are you good friend with AO? Or how can you know for sure?
This resource is inactive for quite long now. Long enough to call it abandoned or at least on hold.
well. we will see . i hope you are right

please bro
The 1.12.1 version still loads for 1.12.2, but only allows brightness changes, doesn't seem to allow XRay.
AO just said that when school settels down, he will give us the x ray mod, so no, its not dead and i hope it will not die anytime.
Try reading like 3 pages back before commenting.
if you dont want to beliefe this is abandoned you must at least agree its "on hold". thats a fact.

Hey man, Your mod is pretty awesome, but on 1.7.10 whenever i use Xray, only ONE side of the blocks appear, or none at all, can you help me?

so we do or don't have 1.12.2 yet?
Not yet. Ambient Occlusion's last post was on Nov 3, promising to get to the update when they had time.

Yep that was my point.
