Added 2024-04-07 20:27:51 +0000 UTC

Hey everyone! The latest update (Beta 2.4a) that's Early Access for Emerald, Lapis, and Netherite is out now! This is honestly a massive update. Huge overhaul of a ton of things, tweaks to others, new skies, and more! Once again, thank you so much to UsernameGeri for such an amazing set of tweaks, updates, etc. They are an amazing asset to this community and I am forever grateful to them!

Let's get into the changelog:
- Complete overhaul of config files, fixing all bugs and inconsistencies

- Full feature pairity between OptiFine and FabricSkyboxes

- Fixed all of the stretched and wonky textures

- Updated Moon texture to make the dark side of it slightly visible

- Sunrises will now have the appropriate skyboxes

- Added sunflare to sunsets and sunrises

- Sunsets and sunrises in the textures will now properly line up with the in-game sun

- Stars will no longer be visible below the horizon line

- Stars will no longer be visible through the high altitude clouds

- Stars will no longer be visible through the Moon

- Stars will now be visible at max build height

- Color correction to high altitude night time sky, to make it appear more night-time-ish

As you can see, a ton, and I mean A TON of fixes. Anything from small seams, odd texture stretches, to texture axis positions. Sunrises and sunsets now have proper positioning for where the sun will be when it rises and sets, tweaks to the stars to be more realistic, etc. Not to mention a complete config and directory overhaul.

If you would like to get early access to Dramatic Skys and any future packs be sure to consider becoming an Emerald tier or above! The normal beta will be out for Gold and above in a few days as well.
