I've been pondering the nature of forge mod loader wondering how it's possible I always thought mods were kinda officially supported but after doing a little modding I kinda got this idea in my mind where they decompiled minecraft and hooked into one of the preloading classes but that seems like a LOT of work for every minecraft release...
Does forge depend on the minecraft release? I mean did they have to fix a decomp and make it run or is there something that allows them to indirectly target and execute methods and such?
<Other implicit questions I should be asking but don't even know how to phrase?>
