Hey everyone,

First off, we apologize for the delay in getting this update out. Life hit pretty hard over the last couple of weeks, and between my sonโ€™s birthday, my own birthday, and everything else happening at once, things got a little chaotic.

That said, we are finally here with a major Shadows of Aethro modpack update, and this one includes a lot of fixes, improvements, balance changes, and new content.

Final Notes

This is a pretty big maintenance and content update, especially for world generation, Cobblemon-related systems, Eternal Starlight, storage, and travel.

As always, thank you all for your patience and for continuing to be part of Shadows of Aethro. Updates may sometimes get delayed, but we are still here, still working, and still trying to make the server better every step of the way.
