Heyo, does Arkenium exist in the mod yet?
Otherwise, how do i get the super jump ability?
Aka Plays15:10
Hello? Anyone?
NoaaanTeam15:50
what is arkenium?

This
cr24Team16:00
it does not, and will not, as we no longer have any aether features and are moving away towards new materials and features
Aka Plays16:04
Oh, ok. Can i still get the super jump in this version?
cr24Team16:05
idk what the super jump is so probably not?
Aka Plays16:05
Oh :/

if you're looking for Aether features your best bet is the actual Aether mods

we've got Aether 1 almost at a releasable state for 1.19.3 (Forge) and will be resuming development of Aether II some time after for the latest Forge version too
Fabric support is something we'd also like in the future but we aren't ready to commit to/discuss our plans just yet
Aka Plays16:34
Ah well. Thanks for the info 👌

But then you'd have to play forge plus aether

forge is like a straight up dealbreaker for me under most circumstances, but aether 1 is such a solid complete experience that i would install it anyways

Not to be rude, but honest question (only ever played aether back in alpha days, I think?): What content did Aether I have besides the bronze, silver and gold dungeons? Ngl the moas and cloud blocks were rad.

a bunch of new tool types with unique properties, quicksand for accelerated travel, capes at the time, gloves, new food sources, new items with unique properties from dungeon loot, also “besides the dungeons” is a really odd thing to say because they were content rich and very fun to raid, essentially better end cities before end cities ever existed and they weren’t postgame
like aether 1 was massive especially for the time
plus it’s cohesive which counts for a lot considering some of the other mods i’ve played

yeah, it definitely hasnt aged well imo but its still a fun mod
sunsette17:54
it has aged basedly
the only exceptions would be textures that would have been updated and presumably will be updated
from a design perspective the only big issue is zephyrs i think
the rest of it runs more smoothly than a lot of minecraft’s gameplay
before the cave update, floating islands as a formula functioned as a sort of reverse cave that made mining objectively better in the aether
now i’d say they’re about on par with one another but having mining for resources encourage exploration for the aether’s “overworld” is just a really good formula
especially considering dungeons are there too

id disagree but i do see your point
