I see a lot of people asking what benefits there are to switching to Reforged, or people that are asking for old versions of the Original Mod that can no longer be distributed. So I decided to make this page to describe the advantages of updating from older/alternative mods to Reforged.
Reasons to update to Reforged
Continued support towards the mod
Older versions of the Mod don't get any bug fixes/performance updates, whereas Reforged is continuously updated and bug tested so will give people a better experience. Furthermore, Reforged has friendly, helpful staff ready to support users. Indeed, on the discord there are multiple friendly knowledgeable staff 24/7 who are more than happy to help with a wide range of issues, from setting up to your own server, assisting in editing your own spawning JSONs to your personal needs, even providing you with sidemod links to help out your player base.
New and exclusive features
Reforged has some exclusive features that came to this mod first. Some of those features are:
- Spear Pillar and the Timespace Altar
- External Mega Evolution
- The Better Spawner
And much more to come.
New Pixelmon with every update
Each version of Reforged that comes out always brings new Pixelmon with it, whether it be megas, alternate forms or even remodeling the older Pixelmon to make them less blocky. Generation 7 will be eventually be coming, once all of the stuff from Generation 6 is implemented and working bug free, but when Generation 7 comes, it will have its mechanics brought in within 1 update, whereas the Pixelmon will be spread out periodically, bug free and amazing as always.
The mod even runs on 32-bit Java
Starting with 6.2.3, the Reforged mod is happily running client side at 1GB of RAM, so those with 32-Bit computers can even play alongside and not miss out
Updating to Reforged from Original versions
Any version before 5.0.3
Unfortunately any progress from these versions cannot be transferred over due to needing to update in stages, and its illegal to distribute older versions of the mod. But with a fresh start, players are going to be able to pick starters that they were never able to pick before.
Version 5.0.3 and later
Data is able to be transferred over easily from these versions to the latest version of Reforged with no problems. If you are needing assistance with this, make sure to head over to the Pixelmon discord where the staff there are more than happy to assist
Updating to Reforged from other mods
Updating from other mods to Reforged is also an easy process. Any Pixelmon not currently implemented in the mod is placed into deep storage and can be retrieved from it the moment it is then added in. Any stats, abilities, Ivs, etc will be copied over exactly the same as it was on any other mod. If you need hand with this process, again, join the Pixelmon Discord where our staff are more than happy to help with switching
