🎩 Shadows of Aethro Update — Now With 73% More Chaos! 🎩

The devs have been busy poking at things they probably shouldn’t, and somehow it worked.

⚔️ War N Taxes v3.26
Raid History got a glow-up — it now actually remembers who bonked who!
Also patched the Tax GUI so you can see how broke you are in style, and fixed the WebAPI so it stops screaming internally.

🔧 Other Mods Got a Spa Day Too:
Applied Energistics 2 (less crashy, more flashy)
Byzantine Styles (ancient bling)
MineColonies Compatibility Addon (because teamwork makes the lag work)
Cyclops Core (blinking more efficiently)
GuideME (now slightly less confusing)
MineColonies (your colonists are still idiots, but shinier ones)
Sophisticated Storage (Marie Kondo approved)
Tweaks Addon for MineColonies (tweaked the tweaks)

💾 Client update required! Go update before your colony stages a tax revolt.

🐝 Shadows of Aethro Update — October 18th, 2025

Time for another round of chaos and questionable coding decisions!
🧩 New Mods Added
Crafting Tweaks
Adds buttons to rotate, clear, and balance your crafting grids. Perfect for lazy crafters who call it “efficiency.”


Emojiful
Chat now supports actual emojis. Yes, you can cry-laugh at your colony burning down. 😂🔥


🔧 Updated Mods

Mob Loot Bags
Completely recoded from the ground up. This should fix the warden issue. Should. If one still spawns, consider it an unscheduled boss fight.


MineColonies
More stability. Fewer colonists mining straight into the void.


The Bumblezone
Bee paradise got a solid tune-up. Buzz responsibly.


Sophisticated Storage & Backpacks
Now with fewer storage tantrums and smoother syncing.


Applied Energistics 2
Minor stability fixes for your network.


Gravestones
Improved compatibility and cleaner death markers for your oops moments.


Oh The Trees You’ll Grow
Trees are slightly less cursed now. Slightly.


Supplementaries
A bit more supplementary than before.


All The Leaks
Plugged. Maybe.


Moonlight Lib
Updated because everything else would riot if we didn’t.



⚠️ Client Update Required
Make sure to update your modpack before joining. If you don’t, expect spontaneous combustion and judgmental colonists.

Final Words
Buzz on, build on, and for the love of bees — stop spawning wardens.

Shadows of Aethro October 4th 2025 Update

🎉 BIG UPDATE DAY on Shadows of Aethro! 🎉
Alright folks, buckle up — the update train has arrived and it’s loaded with chaos, fixes, and a few broken dreams. Here’s what’s new:

🧙‍♂️ JEI → EMI Swap!
JEI has been replaced with EMI because EMI’s lighter, faster, and doesn’t scream when it loads. If you really miss JEI, fine. Go reinstall it yourself.

💧 AlltheLeaks
Got its act together — fewer crashes, fewer memory leaks. Basically, it’s now less of a fire hazard.

📜 Amendments, Balm, BlockUI, Chat Heads, Connectivity
All updated and shiny. No major drama, just code magic.

🪨 Every Compat (Gems, Stone, Wood)
Yeeted. Gone. Banished. Why? Because they made new players wait 10–15 minutes to load in. Quark already does the same stuff but better, so goodbye lag bricks.

⚔️ War & Taxes
Raids now actually steal your taxes. Yep. Welcome to government-approved robbery.

🎒 Sophisticated Backpacks (and friends)
Core, Storage, and Create Integration — all updated. Time to pack smarter, not harder.

🏰 MineColonies + Supplementaries Tweaks
Big colony love here:

Guards actually update their banners now (fashion matters).
Gatehouse lets non-officers teleport too — for a small price, of course.
Teleports land in the middle of the gatehouse instead of “somewhere nearby.”
Archers learned gravity is real and will stop swan-diving off towers.

🧩 And a bunch of other little tweaks
You know the drill — smoother, faster, less laggy, more Aethro-y.

Get those clients updated, get in game, and prepare for whatever cursed behavior comes next.

Spooky season has crept into Aethro! All month long, prepare for ghosts, ghouls, and haunted cogs lurking around every corner.

🕸️ Spooky Textures
The world may look slightly different. Our seasonal texture pack brings new, haunted textures across the server. Don't be surprised if things feel a bit creepier than usual.

🩸 Monsters Unleashed
As previously mentioned, Michael Myers, Chucky, and other terrors have been spotted roaming the wild, sneaking on unsuspecting players. Stay sharp and travel with caution - no one is safe this month.

Stay safe, stay spooky, and you may survive through the haunted nights of Aethro!
