Shadows of Aethro – Change Log (2025‑07‑18)
🔥 Balm Library Power‑Up
Balm has been updated to the latest version. Smoother gameplay, better mod support, less “why is this breaking.”
✨ Fusion (Connected Textures) Upgrade
Your blocks now look even sexier. Fusion’s latest update brings cleaner connected textures everywhere.
🪨 Waystones, Waystones Everywhere
Fast travel just got fancier. We’ve added Blackstone, End Stone, and Deepslate waystones. Collect them all and make your travel network look awesome.
🐀 Rats Have Invaded Aethro!
Yup. Rats. They’re sneaky, they’re adorable, and they’re in your world now.
• Build rat traps to keep your stuff safe.
• Tame them with cheese… if they feel like it. (They’re picky. Don’t take it personally.)
• Once tamed, rats can carry their own inventory and even ride along with you.

🧑🎨 Customizable Player Models
Go nuts with your character design. Giant heads? Tiny arms? Cool outfits? Do it. Just keep it PG.
💚 XP Orb Clumping
XP orbs now group up like best friends at a party. Less lag, faster pickups, more satisfying shwoop sounds.
🕯️ TorchMaster Has Arrived
Tired of mobs crashing your build party? Plop down special torches and no more random spawns in your area. Build in peace.
🚀 Rubber Banding Fixed
That annoying “fly forward, snap back” issue? Gone. Fly free, little dragon.
