How to get Minecraft Fabric 1.21.2
Mojang has finally released the Minecraft 1.21.2 Bundles of Bravery game drop. This is the game's first drop which is essentially a smaller update that does not have a lot of features. However, the developers have promised that these updates will be much more frequent throughout the year.
With every new update, the modding community updates their mods for the new game version. Along with mods, modding APIs are also updated by the modding community.
Soon after Mojang released the 1.21.2 update, Fabric modding API was also updated to the latest version. Here is a simple guide to download Fabric for Minecraft 1.21.2 Bundles of Bravery.
Note: Since Fabric API can be installed in many ways, this article shows one method only.
Steps to download Fabric API for Minecraft 1.21.2 game drop
1) Search for Iris Shaders
First, you must understand that Fabric is a modding API that is available for download from various websites, including its official one. However, one of the best ways to install the latest API is through the Iris Shaders installer. This installer not only downloads Fabric but also installs Iris shader support and Sodium performance mod for Minecraft.
You can simply search for "Iris Shaders for Minecraft" and head to its official website. From there, you can click the "Download Now" button and get the universal jar file.
Make sure that you already have Java Edition and Java installed on your device before this step.
2) Install the Iris Shaders with Fabric API
Thankfully, Iris Shaders, Fabric API, and Sodium mod, all three support the latest Minecraft 1.21.2 Bundles of Bravery update. You can open the downloaded installer, select "Iris + Fabric" in the installation type, make sure that the installation directory is ".minecraft" and then finally hit install. If there is any question about a folder already existing, simply ask the installer to overwrite it.
This will install the latest Fabric version for the 1.21.2 update, but also add Sodium mod and Iris Shaders through which players can run the game much more smoothly and with shader packs.
As of now, Forge API, a direct competitor of Fabric, has not yet been updated to 1.21.2 game drop. Hence, players can use Fabric for now since it is readily available.
