+                       Version 3, 29 June 2007
+
+ Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <https://fsf.org/>
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+
+  This version of the GNU Lesser General Public License incorporates
+the terms and conditions of version 3 of the GNU General Public
+License, supplemented by the additional permissions listed below.
+
+  0. Additional Definitions.
+
+  As used herein, "this License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Lesser
+General Public License, and the "GNU GPL" refers to version 3 of the GNU
+General Public License.
+
+  "The Library" refers to a covered work governed by this License,
+other than an Application or a Combined Work as defined below.
+
+  An "Application" is any work that makes use of an interface provided
+by the Library, but which is not otherwise based on the Library.
+Defining a subclass of a class defined by the Library is deemed a mode
+of using an interface provided by the Library.
+
+  A "Combined Work" is a work produced by combining or linking an
+Application with the Library.  The particular version of the Library
+with which the Combined Work was made is also called the "Linked
+Version".
+
+  The "Minimal Corresponding Source" for a Combined Work means the
+Corresponding Source for the Combined Work, excluding any source code
+for portions of the Combined Work that, considered in isolation, are
+based on the Application, and not on the Linked Version.
+
+  The "Corresponding Application Code" for a Combined Work means the
+object code and/or source code for the Application, including any data
+and utility programs needed for reproducing the Combined Work from the
+Application, but excluding the System Libraries of the Combined Work.
+
+  1. Exception to Section 3 of the GNU GPL.
+
+  You may convey a covered work under sections 3 and 4 of this License
+without being bound by section 3 of the GNU GPL.
+
+  2. Conveying Modified Versions.
+
+  If you modify a copy of the Library, and, in your modifications, a
+facility refers to a function or data to be supplied by an Application
+that uses the facility (other than as an argument passed when the
+facility is invoked), then you may convey a copy of the modified
+version:
+
+   a) under this License, provided that you make a good faith effort to
+   ensure that, in the event an Application does not supply the
+   function or data, the facility still operates, and performs
+   whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful, or
+
+   b) under the GNU GPL, with none of the additional permissions of
+   this License applicable to that copy.
+
+  3. Object Code Incorporating Material from Library Header Files.
+
+  The object code form of an Application may incorporate material from
+a header file that is part of the Library.  You may convey such object
+code under terms of your choice, provided that, if the incorporated
+material is not limited to numerical parameters, data structure
+layouts and accessors, or small macros, inline functions and templates
+(ten or fewer lines in length), you do both of the following:
+
+   a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the object code that the
+   Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
+   covered by this License.
+
+   b) Accompany the object code with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
+   document.
+
+  4. Combined Works.
+
+  You may convey a Combined Work under terms of your choice that,
+taken together, effectively do not restrict modification of the
+portions of the Library contained in the Combined Work and reverse
+engineering for debugging such modifications, if you also do each of
+the following:
+
+   a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the Combined Work that
+   the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
+   covered by this License.
+
+   b) Accompany the Combined Work with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
+   document.
+
+   c) For a Combined Work that displays copyright notices during
+   execution, include the copyright notice for the Library among
+   these notices, as well as a reference directing the user to the
+   copies of the GNU GPL and this license document.
+
+   d) Do one of the following:
+
+       0) Convey the Minimal Corresponding Source under the terms of this
+       License, and the Corresponding Application Code in a form
+       suitable for, and under terms that permit, the user to
+       recombine or relink the Application with a modified version of
+       the Linked Version to produce a modified Combined Work, in the
+       manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL for conveying
+       Corresponding Source.
+
+       1) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
+       Library.  A suitable mechanism is one that (a) uses at run time
+       a copy of the Library already present on the user's computer
+       system, and (b) will operate properly with a modified version
+       of the Library that is interface-compatible with the Linked
+       Version.
+
+   e) Provide Installation Information, but only if you would otherwise

+
+   a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based
+   on the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities,
+   conveyed under the terms of this License.

+
+  Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
+Library as you received it specifies that a certain numbered version
+of the GNU Lesser General Public License "or any later version"
+applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and
+conditions either of that published version or of any later version
+published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library as you
+received it does not specify a version number of the GNU Lesser
+General Public License, you may choose any version of the GNU Lesser
+General Public License ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
+
+  If the Library as you received it specifies that a proxy can decide
+whether future versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License shall
+apply, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of any version is
+permanent authorization for you to choose that version for the
+Library.

+
+<br>
+
+## Source Code Installation
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+* A Java Development Kit (JDK) for Java 17 (recommended) or newer. <br>
+  Visit https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/ for installers.
+* Git or someway to clone git projects. <br> 
+  Visit https://git-scm.com/ for installers.
+* (Not required) Any Java IDE with plugins that support Manifold, for example Intellij IDEA.
 
 **If using IntelliJ:**
-1. open IDEA and import the build.gradle
-2. run the command: `./gradlew genIntellijRuns`
-3. refresh the Gradle project in IDEA if required
+1. Install the Manifold plugin
+2. Open IDEA and import the build.gradle
+3. Refresh the Gradle project in IDEA if required
 
+**If using Eclipse: (Note that Eclipse doesn't support Manifold's preprocessor!)**
+1. Run the command: `./gradlew geneclipseruns`
+2. Run the command: `./gradlew eclipse`
+3. Make sure eclipse has the JDK 17 installed. (This is needed so that eclipse can run minecraft)
+4. Import the project into eclipse
+
+
+
+## Switching Versions
+
+To switch between different Minecraft versions, change `mcVer=1.?` in the `gradle.properties` file.
+
+If running in an IDE, to ensure the IDE noticed the version change, run any gradle command to refresh gradle. (In IntellJ you will also need to do a gradle sync if it didn't happen automatically.)
+>Note: There may be a `java.nio.file.FileSystemException` thrown when running the command after switching versions. To fix it, either restart your IDE (as your IDE is probably locking a file) or use a tool like LockHunter to unlock the linked file(s). (Generally it is a lib file under `common\build\lib`, `forge\build\lib`, or `fabric\build\lib`). \
+> If anyone knows how to solve this issue please let us know here: \
+> https://gitlab.com/jeseibel/minecraft-lod-mod/-/issues/233
+
+
+<br>
 
 ## Compiling
 
-1. open a command line in the project folder
-2. run the command: `./gradlew build`
-3. the compiled jar file will be in the folder `build\libs`
+Prerequisites:
+- JDK 17 or newer
 
+From the File Explorer:
+1. Download and extract the project zip
+2. Download the core from https://gitlab.com/jeseibel/distant-horizons-core and extract into a folder called `coreSubProjects`
+3. Open a terminal emulator in the project folder (On Windows you can type `cmd` in the title bar)
+4. Run the commands: `./gradlew assemble` (You may need to use a `.\` on Windows)
+5. Merge the jars wih `./gradlew mergeJars`
+6. The compiled jar file will be in the folder `Merged`
+
+From the command line:
+1. `git clone --recurse-submodules https://gitlab.com/jeseibel/minecraft-lod-mod.git`
+2. `cd minecraft-lod-mod`
+3. `./gradlew assemble`
+4. `./gradlew mergeJars`
+5. The compiled jar file will be in the folder `Merged`
+
+Run tests with: `./gradlew test`
+
+>Note: You can add the arg: `-PmcVer=?` to tell gradle to build a selected MC version instead of having to modify the `gradle.properties` file. \
+> Example: `./gradlew assemble -PmcVer=1.18.2`
+
+
+<br>
+
+## Compiling with Docker
+
+`./compile <version>`
+
+You can also locally compile the DH jars without a Java environment by using Docker. Where `<version>` is the version of Minecraft to compile for (ie `1.20.1`), or the keyword `all`. See [Versions](#minecraft-and-library-versions) for a list of all supported values.
+
+
+<br>
 
 ## Other commands
 
 `./gradlew --refresh-dependencies` to refresh local dependencies.
 
-`./gradlew clean` to reset everything (this does not affect your code) and then start the process again.
+`./gradlew clean` to delete any compiled code.
 
 
 ## Note to self
 
 The Minecraft source code is NOT added to your workspace in an editable way. Minecraft is treated like a normal Library. Sources are there for documentation and research purposes only.
 
-Source code uses Mojang mappings.
+Source code uses Mojang mappings & [Parchment](https://parchmentmc.org/) mappings.
 
-The source code can be 'created' with the `./eclipse` command and can be found in the following path:\
-`minecraft-lod-mod\build\fg_cache\mcp\ VERSION \joined\ RANDOM_STRING \patch\output.jar`
+To generate the source code run `./gradlew genSources`\
+If your IDE fails to auto-detect the source jars when browsing Minecraft classes; manually select the JAR file ending with -sources.jar when prompted by your IDE. <br>
+(In IntelliJ it's at the top where it says "choose sources" when browsing a Minecraft class)
 
+<br>
+
+## Other Useful commands
+
+Run the standalone jar: `./gradlew run`\
+Build the standalone jar: `./gradlew core:build`\
+Only build Fabric: `./gradlew fabric:assemble` or `./gradlew fabric:build`\
+Only build Forge: `./gradlew fabric:assemble` or `./gradlew forge:build`\
+Run the Fabric client (for debugging): `./gradlew fabric:runClient`\
+Run the Forge client (for debugging): `./gradlew forge:runClient`
+
+To build all versions: `./buildAll` (all builds will end up in the `Merged` folder)

+
+# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
+
+## Our Pledge
+
+In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as
+contributors and maintainers pledge to make participation in our project and
+our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
+size, disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression,
+level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal
+appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
+
+## Our Standards
+
+Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment
+include:
+
+* Using welcoming and inclusive language
+* Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
+* Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
+* Focusing on what is best for the community
+* Showing empathy towards other community members
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:
+
+* The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or
+  advances
+* Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
+* Public or private harassment
+* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic
+  address, without explicit permission
+* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
+  professional setting
+
+## Our Responsibilities
+
+Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable
+behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in
+response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.
+
+Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or
+reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions
+that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or
+permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate,
+threatening, offensive, or harmful.
+
+## Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies within all project spaces, and it also applies when
+an individual is representing the project or its community in public spaces.
+Examples of representing a project or community include using an official
+project e-mail address, posting via an official social media account, or acting
+as an appointed representative at an online or offline event. Representation of
+a project may be further defined and clarified by project maintainers.
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
+reported by contacting the team lead James Seibel through Discord at `@backsun`. All
+complaints will be reviewed and investigated and will result in a response that
+is deemed necessary and appropriate to the circumstances. The project team is
+obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident.
+Further details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.
+
+Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good
+faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other
+members of the project's leadership.
+
+## Attribution
+
+This Code of Conduct is adapted from the [Contributor Covenant][homepage], version 1.4,
+available at https://www.contributor-covenant.org/version/1/4/code-of-conduct.html
+
