Create Horse Power - CE v1.2.11

Create Horse Power CE 1.2.11

Forward-compatible dependency metadata

• Replace hard upper bounds on Create and exact-version restrictions on optional Icy's Better Horses with minimum-only loader ranges on Forge and NeoForge.
• Keep the minimum Create release at 6.0.8 and Icy API baseline at 2.1.7, without rejecting newer mod releases by version number alone.
• Preserve exact Minecraft target versions because the Forge and NeoForge artifacts are compiled against distinct game APIs. Existing Forge and NeoForge loader ranges were already minimum-only.
• Add a release-jar verifier requirement that all non-Minecraft mod/loader dependencies have no upper bound, including future declared dependencies.
• Update the opt-in Icy compatibility test artifacts to published 2.1.8 for both loaders; Gradle artifacts remain fixed for reproducible CI while runtime metadata stays open-ended.

Verification

• On-prem-1 validation with published Icy 2.1.8 passed 32/32 required GameTests on both Forge and NeoForge, after changing the dependency metadata. Both loader builds, unit tests and release-jar dependency verifiers also passed.
• This policy permits future updates to load; it does not claim untested upstream API changes are compatible. CI and release acceptance must still exercise exact test binaries.
