Addons Maker Reviews

Currently, there is a bug with projectiles that makes you completely unable to make and edit projectiles. You seemingly can edit and make projectiles at first, but you can’t save them anymore. When pressing the checkmark (save) button, it is supposed to save your item you made. This works for everything (that I know of) except for the projectiles, as AddonsMaker just fails to go through with saving the projectile, and because you can’t save the projectiles, your edits to projectiles you made before AddonsMaker updated/newly created projectiles don’t do anything. This didn’t happen before, so I guess in the new updates to AddonsMaker , this was overseen. Just to completely clarify, this is ONLY about projectiles, not anything else.
The main reason I dislike this so much is because my friends and I came to AddonsMaker specifically to make custom weapons, a lot of them being projectiles, and I want to make more projectiles and change the ones I had before this update. Please fix this, developers. I liked AddonsMaker and originally would’ve given it nothing less than 5 stars, but this failing-to-save-projectiles bug needs to be fixed before my opinions on AddonsMaker change.

Theres a huge issue preventing AddonsMaker from working. Im not sure if its something on my end or not, but I’ve deleted and redownloaded AddonsMaker multiple times and the problem persists so I may as well try my luck in a review.
I’ve used AddonsMaker for a long time, and I’m a huge fan of how things are done, but one day, when I tried importing new textures, they started to overwrite what I already had for a different object entirely, and this wasnt just a visual bug, this completely broke the addon itself. I thought it was just a temporary issue, so i waited for some bug fixes, to se eif it would go away. And now, over half a year later, it still isnt fixed and its preventing me from expressing my creativity via AddonsMaker . This is pretty crushing because prior to this, I was having a blast making addons. And now I lack the ability to do so, making two other programs i use to make textures pretty pointless now.
Please, I BEG of you to figure out whats wrong and try to fix it. Even if I’m the only one with the problem currently, it could happen to others, and could kill AddonsMaker .

... but it’s still trash. I spent three dollars on AddonsMaker expecting it to be really good, I was wrong AddonsMaker is garbage. After AddonsMaker was done downloading I started playing around with it then I discovered that there is no custom skin creator in AddonsMaker. I didn’t think this was such a big deal, I just made a skin on a skin creator website and tried using it, but it didn’t work. The built in skins worked just fine but my custom skin wasn’t working.

I started playing around with it a little more, then I started editing the weapons but all I could change was the skin of the weapon, GOOD GRIEF THE WEAPONS WERE THE ONLY REASON I BOUGHT AddonsMaker, AND YOU CAN’T EVEN CUSTOMIZE THEM!!! Also you can’t customize tridents, shields, elytra, or crossbows. And you can only customize 17.8% of the blocks, AND ALL YOU CAN CUSTOMIZE IS THE SKIN! And when I tried to make it so you could ride chickens it wouldn’t work. In fact, most of my AddOns wouldn’t work. Please fix this, if you change all the things I mentioned I would probably give this a five star rating, but for now I’m giving AddonsMaker two stars.

It’s worth noting that I have experiment's and stuff on. Firstly my biomes and trees don’t spawn. secondly it keeps changing my blocks crafting recipes without me wanting them to. Thirdly some of my functions on my food and weapons don’t work half the time and some not at all. Lastly I have some suggestions I’d like added if possible 1: I would like to add custom paintings. 2: I want there to be a way to select just all items or just all blocks. 3: I’d like to make custom doors and trapdoors. 4: tnt needs better modding screen like a crafting recipe section some more effects like water or lighting etc.. and be able to chose each side texture like the blocks. 5: please add more effects to weapons/tools like summoning lighting or fire and being able to give potions effects to people you hit. 6: a tutorial on what every word means that effects the items/block etc… like foil, direction, health etc… 7: being able to add enchantments to the weapons/tools. 8: I don’t know if I just did this wrong but being able to place blocks on the side of other blocks. 9: miscellaneous custom beds blocks automatically drop themselves without having to put them in the Loot after making them. Thanks for reading and I hope your take this review in consideration when making the next update

I’ve been using this add-on maker for a while now and many issues came up that made using it an annoyance rather than an enjoyable experience. First off, there are too many ads for an app that I paid for. I don’t know if it was made free at some point, but having an ad every time I enter/exit something is absurd; I shouldn’t have to pay a monthly subscription to remove ads on an app that, as stated before, I paid for already. Also, there is this random glitch that keeps happening to me where the textures I set for a block or item gets changed to a different texture that was used in the mod-pack, and nothing I can do fixes the issue, meaning my pack is now bugged. Lastly, AddonsMaker needs a little bit more options. There is a ton already, but most of them are for mobs, and there are somehow duplicates of already existing options? Some ideas I had are like an option for making carpets and/or custom music discs.

I love AddonsMaker . I don’t play vanilla PE at all but love to when I make an Addon with AddonsMaker, but I do have a few suggestions/criticisms though. 1. Could you make the info button on a lot of commands more helpful and understandable? A lot of them say something hard to understand and give no info on what it does. 2. I would love if everything was more organized. What I mean is a sorting system for the Addon bases. (ex. Alphabetical order, mobs only, tools only, etc.) it would help a lot and would be nice to have. Now the last two are smaller requests but would effect AddonsMaker a lot. 3. A redo button in the texture editor. You don’t know how many times I accidentally undo something and can get it back. Like where I spend a long time decorating a texture, accidentally press undo and have to redo it. 4. Could you please show more love to the TNT Addon base? Like give it a crafting recipe, how far it knocks you back, certain blocks it can’t break, you know small helpful things. Anyways thank you for reading my rant. I love your app and I hope this will help to improve it and make it even better! ❤️

....BUT there are a few issues. For the most part, this is extremely user friendly and fun to use. But with many bugs, this can be frustrating at times. Additionally, many descriptions and tutorials are vague, almost as if I’m expected to know how AddonsMaker works. For example, you have some detailed descriptions, then you have something like “config name tag”. I’d like a tutorial explaining what each function is and how to use it properly. Also, I have no idea what I’m doing wrong, but importing audio files for mob sounds, even in wav, ogg, or fav, doesn’t ever work. Also, recording doesn’t seem to work either. I’m sure this could be patched, but could you explain to me how to get the sounds to work properly? I’d also love to see an “explode on impact” option for projectiles. Thanks!

Otherwise, this is a great, user friendly app, and I look forward to continuing to use it! However, with that said, please fix the bugs out there!

In AddonsMaker , it says you need to use files to import your pack to Minecraft if you are using iOS 13+. The instructions appear very simple and clear to follow, but does not work. It seemed like such a cool app, and I think anyone not using iOS 13 will love it. However, until they fix this error it appears I won’t be able to use AddonsMaker.

EDIT: This issue has been resolved! Now you can use your addons on iOS 13. AddonsMaker is great! It is easy to make items and food and edit the already existing mobs, but recipes are tricky. In smelting you can make an item able to be cooked, but not change its texture from a raw to a cooked meat. What I mean is, you can cook a raw meat but it will still be raw meat. Not sure if I’m using this wrong. AddonsMaker is constantly updated, though, and if it’s a problem it’s bound to be fixed soon! Worth the money!

So I’ve wanted to make MCPE mods for awhile, so I got AddonsMaker cuz the reviews look gud. I changed a few textures, and made a custom sword with a premade skin. Then I tried to make Bluey (yes, Bluey heeler.) water and blue grass. The game crashes (aka kicks me out of AddonsMaker ) every time I try to open a world that has the resource pack with the Bluey water and blue grass. And I can’t craft, or find my sword. I saved the resource pack as a new pack every time I made an item in the pack, so I can use earlier versions of it, thank goodness. But this was going to be my practice pack (cuz I’m a noob to making Addons/mods) so I could make a cozy autumn cottagecore pack for fall arriving in the upcoming days. And if I can’t find or craft my custom items, or change the water or grass, then there’s 50% of my next pack out the window. And it seems like I’m the only one with this problem. So plz fix this. And if there’s nothing wrong then tell me what I’M doing wrong!? Cuz if that was fixed/solved I would give AddonsMaker 5 stars. (Also it’s a bit hard to navigate when ur first going in.)

I love AddonsMaker. It’s really helpful, and it’s helping me create my horror map, Decompose. AddonsMaker has everything (most) a modder needs, but there are some minor issues.. firstly, I really wish you could edit more than one sound. Whenever I try to edit/replace a sound, it works, but when I try to do it again, it replaces the sound I replaced. Another thing is I wish we could edit existing MCAddon files. My friend gave me one to edit but I can’t. And this may just be my terrible internet, but here and then stuff won’t load. For example, in the textures section, everything will appear as !
Again, that may just be my issue. Lastly, I just wished some things made a bit more sense, because the “head” section doesn’t edit or create a head, but whatever it does create (an armor stand model thing) it’s still helpful lol.
Overall, AddonsMaker is still incredibly helpful to me and it all works mostly well, and I hope to maybe see some things added in the future :)

It’s pretty good tbh . AddonsMaker allows for add-Ons to be more comprehensible and usable for kids to experience the potentials of add ons. There are many people who play Minecraft and aren’t very experienced in Scripting or coding so it may be hard for them to express their creative ideas without apps like these who make it simple to create quality add ons. Therefore AddonsMaker has a lot of potential , I hope more people buy this or at least this comment can reach the producer of AddonsMaker because with such potential it will be sad to see it go to waste. My advise is to add more complexity but also simplicity to AddonsMaker . This means allowing the user to edit a wider variety of behaviors /textures for Minecraft but also making it simple enough for them to understand what they’re doing so that there creativity may be pushed to the bottomless extent . Such an idea like this will definitely bring success to AddonsMaker and it’s developers ! :)

AddonsMaker is the best! It took three weeks to get my parents to get it for me, but I did it! Anyway, it is super useful, I could make special glass for a church in Minecraft, a special fence, even dogs, like border collies, corgis, all the colors of labradors, and more! My first complaint is this though: 1. In the 3D view for when you work on stuff, it can’t show the character in the box in the corner, sorry if that wasn’t very clear 😂 I mean, in the box where you see your character, and temporarily eliminate parts of your work so you can get at places you couldn’t get to before. Does that make sense?
Okay, complaint number two: I ran out of complaints. Lol. Great game, thanks so much for reading! Please leave a reply, it would help me so much, without the 3D thing not working, I can’t do my stuff properly. Thanks! -The Bagel1448

I created an addon adding weapons and tools. Except when I made the hammers, it took forever breaking blocks until I ran into a wall and somehow just walking into walls broke blocks. Which was cool but it was too OP for what I wanted. I definitely think there should be the option either to break blocks like normal or walk into them to break them. But, I noticed the health and movement settings that should be for mobs, not tools. But when I set them to zero and equip a tool, it breaks my game by killing me constantly, repeating “Generating World...” Because of this, it has broken two of my worlds. Both of which I JUST ACCESSED the Nether. I’ve tried setting the health and movement speed and reinstalling the mod but it kills me once and the screen does what it does when it appears with the buttons: “Respawn” and “Return to Main Menu”. Except it doesn’t appear with those buttons and “Generating World...” stays at the bottom of the screen.

I have been using AddonsMaker for quite some time now and while it is great I have noticed a few things that should be added:

1: You should add more customization to new crafting tables and potentially new furnaces. I think this would allow people to really used their imagination to make even more great things.

2: Things should be able to only be crafted/smelted by a certain crafting table and/or furnace. This would make the mod more interesting to the point of thousands of new items created.

3: There NEEDS to be a tutorial. Instead of being thrown into the maker, you should have an option to take a tutorial or skip it, as it would allow new people to ease into making their own mod.

4: You should have structure creator built into AddonsMaker instead of it being its own. This would allow people to make their own structures to be made as well.

5: Last but not least, things like tree/plant growth should be fully customizable to the point where giant flowers can be made. I think saplings and seeds should also be fully linkable to a plant/tree.

Overall, AddonsMaker is great, but I think with these additions it could be even better. Or maybe that’s just how I see, who knows!

AddonsMaker is amazing. Unlike other add-on creators out there, this one gives you the power to create, not just edit. This is the main tool I use to create Bedrock edition add-ons and it has yet to disappoint me. Except... well to put it plainly it feels rushed. I encounter some bugs while creating such as certain values resetting or image corruption, and the fact that it only accepts .pngs is tough. It also is missing some content from the create menu, such as creating other armor other than a helmet, and a projectile creation. Things that AddonsMaker has proven to be possible are missing along with some other bugs and stuff. Other than this I love AddonsMaker , as it helps me develop high quality add-ons. Even while my computer breaks and I am unable to use typical mod creation software, I am still able to experience the thrill of “modding” Minecraft even if it is just an add-on.

Edit: I also really like the development team that works on this as they are very good at responding to problems.

I LOVE THIS. This is the best modding app ever I love how you can make custom armor. I am literally making the biggest mod ever (Hopefully) but there’s some suggestions... 1. Make it so we can make custom Crafting tables and furnaces. 2. I’m not able to download any of the new AddOns I make I used to but now it just keeps kicking me out of AddonsMaker . 3. For the flowers I like to use them as crops but when you place them, when you break them and get what is supposed to come when it fully grows. Either fix or make custom crops. 4. Make it so that you can make a custom item, weapon or armor when you wear it... when you are making the mod yo7 an make it so when the thing is equipped you can make the player have a flight ability... I don’t like needing* to do jump-boost and slow falling. And 5.make it so we can make custom fences, gates, doors, trapdoors and walls. Thanks for this awesome Addon maker I hope I made my voice heard and I hope that these come in the future!!!

This is a totally amazing app that creates so many possibilities. I have used it for a year now and I can defiantly say you should download AddonsMaker if you want to make mods. However, I would like to see a few features changed. First being able to adjust how much a piston can push and how much a piston can retract. But I also this there should be a separate part to adjust sticky pistons too. I also noticed that the flying feature for mobs is a little bit broken and needs some work. Also O want to be able to grab my new items from here in the creative menu (right now you have to grab them). For projectiles as well the once/infinity toggle makes it so that the delay for throwing/shooting your new items does not apply. But with a few minor improvements this could be an even better game changing app. And I also would love to see being able to add enchants/ buffs for the tools. I would want to have like knock back but able to toggle the Strength of it it. This is because I was trying to make a tool that me and my friends could use with a shield on a raised platform to try to knock each other off while not doing any damage and having to craft a bunch more because we keep dying with them.

AddonsMaker is very good however it does crash whenever I click the share button. But when it does crash it still saves all your work so nothing happens. Also at first I was gonna give 4 stars because all of the crashing but AddonsMaker is really good and the crashing doesn’t effect too much plus I saw the frequent updates on AddonsMaker and I really appreciate the work they do on AddonsMaker! They have weekly updates and that is not easy to do! AddonsMaker is becoming better and better by the day and I’m sure one day it will become the number 1 app on the AppStore! However I do have a suggestion. Sometimes when you click the question mark near a switch or something that activates something else it will tell you what it does. But sometimes the description is unclear or it just repeats the very same stuff I don’t understand. I don’t know if this is just because I’m a dumb kid with the vocabulary of a 2 year old but if you can fix this I might be able to understand AddonsMaker a bit more.

In the next update make it so blocks can pull you down or push you up in water. Next one is make a switch so that way the mob can actually swim like a player or drowned can. Third is can you make a mob model maker so that way instead of choosing mob skins for mobs make a 3D model from it. You can animate the legs, head, jaws, mouth, ears, wings, (so that way we can make the mob fly) back legs, front legs, etc. Fourth is can we make custom elytra for myself and my sister. Fifth is can you make a text box so that way we can customize the slipperiness of blocks. Sixth is can you make a switch to toggle on and off so that way we can make weapons shoot projectiles for me and my sister. Can we make custom weapons light things on fire or do knockback so we can adjust the power?
Next, I want you to make an option for particles to be emitted from a block or mob.
Last one: Make a setting to toggle if the item can be registered in the creative inventory and to weapons to adjust the power of knockback it does
That is all so read this and make these suggestions possible for the next update

AddonsMaker is by far the best AddOns maker for Minecraft by far. You can make almost anything you want - you can create new items/mobs or you can replace or retexture the default Minecraft mobs. You can create almost anything, including functions, which I found really useful for my map. However, there are a few problems sometimes, like functions not showing up in the /function command and some other custom items or blocks not showing up in game, but it’s mostly because the game needs to be updated, and it won’t export right if it hasn’t been updated by the time you try to export it to Minecraft. Other than that, it is a great game and is definitely worth the purchase if you are looking into map or addon making.
