What is The Aether?

This pack ships The Aether version 1.5.10, the NeoForge build for Minecraft 1.21.1. If you look up anything about the mod elsewhere, check that it matches this release, because details can change between versions.[1]

Unverified What The Aether adds, who it suits best and where it fits in this pack's progression could not be confirmed from the available material, so those details are left out here. The pack's quest data shows no quests involving the mod, and it is not part of the ATM Star path, so you can explore it at your own pace.

How do you get started with The Aether?

4 parts

Same as in the All the Mods 10 7.0 guide

Welcome to the sky! This section covers the first things worth crafting once you start playing with The Aether in this pack. Each recipe card below shows the exact in-pack recipe, so you can see what this pack actually uses.[2]

Your first tools

Start with Skyroot gear. The Skyroot Axe is the first tool to make, and a Skyroot Bucket is also crafted from Skyroot materials.[2]

Once you're mining Holystone, upgrade to Holystone tools. Grab the Holystone Pickaxe first, then the Holystone Sword, Holystone Axe and Holystone Shovel as you need them. Holystone matters beyond tools too: the Altar, Freezer and Incubator recipes all use it, so keep a good stack.[2]

Light and a place to sleep

Make some Ambrosium Torch next. They light up your base, and you'll need them later for the Incubator.[2]

A Skyroot Bed is a nice early craft too. The mod even has an advancement for finally sleeping in the Aether.[2][3]

Your first workstations

The Altar needs Zanite, so it's your goal once you find a Zanite Gemstone. It's worth it: you use the Altar to obtain Enchanted Gravitite, which leads to the Gravitite gear.[2][3]

The Freezer works with Icestone. One of its uses is freezing accessories, which even earns you an advancement.[2][3]

The Incubator builds on the Ambrosium Torch you made earlier, so craft it once your torches are sorted.[2]

Early accessories

The Aether adds an accessories button to your inventory and creative menus. Cheap first accessories to fill those slots include Leather Gloves, Iron Gloves and Golden Gloves.[2][3]

How does The Aether work?

Same as in the All the Mods 10 8.1 guide

The sources for this mod cover a handful of utility blocks and a set of gameplay rules you can tune in the configs. They don't describe machine GUIs, processing, power or automation, so this section sticks to what they do show.[3]

Altar and Freezer

The utility blocks the sources mention are the Altar and the Freezer. The Altar is tied to an advancement where you use it to obtain Enchanted Gravitite. The Freezer is tied to an advancement where you use it with Icestone to freeze an accessory.[3]

Gameplay rules you can configure

A few options in the server config change how core mechanics behave. Here is what each one does.[3]

  • Armor abilities can be made to depend on wearing the matching gloves from an armor set, which is why items like Gravitite Gloves matter.[3]
  • Ambrosium Shard can be set to be edible, restoring a half heart of health.[3]
  • The Hammer of Kingbdogz and the Cloud Staff each have an ability cooldown measured in ticks.[3]
  • There is a cap on how many Life Shards a player can consume to raise their health, and the extra hearts can be drawn as silver.[3]
  • Vanilla beds can be set to explode in the Aether.[3]
  • On entering the Aether, players can be given a Book of Lore and Golden Parachute items as starting loot. On world creation they can also be given an Aether Portal Frame item to travel to the Aether.[3]

What the pack changes

The pack changes the crafting recipes for the Golden Pendant and the Golden Ring. Use these in-pack versions instead of what you may remember from the mod's defaults.[4]

The pack also sets the accessories button position to 10 on the x-axis in [[config:config/aether-client.toml#Gui.Button x-coordinate in accessories menu]] and 28 on the x-axis in [[config:config/aether-client.toml#Gui.Button x-coordinate in inventory menus]]. These control where the Aether's accessories button sits in those menus.[5]

[[config:config/aether-common.toml#Gameplay.Show Patreon message]] is set to false, so the message linking the mod's Patreon doesn't show. [[config:config/aether-startup.toml#Gui.Enables random trivia]] is also false, so you won't see random trivia and tips at the bottom of loading screens.[3][6][7]

How do you progress through The Aether?

5 parts

Same as in the All the Mods 10 7.0 guide

Your Aether gear comes in four material families: Skyroot, Holystone, Zanite and Gravitite. In this pack the tool and armor recipes for all of them are the mod's own recipes, unchanged, so what you craft here matches the standard Aether versions.[2]

Skyroot: your first tools

Everything starts with Skyroot. Chop some Skyroot Log, turn it into Skyroot Planks and then Skyroot Stick. That gets you the full Skyroot set: Skyroot Pickaxe, Skyroot Axe, Skyroot Shovel, Skyroot Hoe and Skyroot Sword, plus the handy Skyroot Bucket.[2]

Tip: Keep a stack of Skyroot Sticks on you. Every Holystone, Zanite and Gravitite tool recipe in this pack uses them too, so you'll be crafting them the whole way up.[2]

Holystone: the stone tier

Once you're mining Holystone, you can upgrade to the Holystone Pickaxe, Holystone Axe, Holystone Shovel, Holystone Hoe and Holystone Sword. Holystone also goes into your first utility blocks, the Freezer and the Incubator.[2]

Zanite: gems and the Altar

Zanite Gemstone opens up the Zanite gear. The pack has the Zanite Axe, Zanite Chestplate and Zanite Boots, and you can compress gems into a Block of Zanite. Zanite also goes into the Altar and the Nature Staff.[2]

Gravitite: the top set

Gravitite gives you the biggest lineup: Gravitite Pickaxe, Gravitite Axe, Gravitite Shovel, Gravitite Hoe and Gravitite Sword, plus a full armor set with Gravitite Helmet, Gravitite Chestplate, Gravitite Leggings, Gravitite Boots and even Gravitite Gloves. All of them need processed Gravitite rather than the raw material.[2]

Accessories: gloves, rings and pendants

Alongside your armor, you can craft gloves in several tiers: Leather Gloves, Iron Gloves, Golden Gloves, Diamond Gloves and the Gravitite Gloves from the top set.[2]

How does The Aether work with other mods?

2 parts

Same as in the All the Mods 10 7.0 guide

Got a stack of Skyroot Slab from your trips to the Aether? The main way The Aether connects with other mods in this pack is through furniture. Skyroot Slabs are the wood for a whole set of colored Bibliocraft furniture pieces, so you can decorate your sky base with display cases and seating that match the Aether's pale wood.[2]

All of these recipes are marked as changed by the pack. Use the recipe blocks on this page instead of recipes you remember from other packs or mod pages, because they show the exact versions used in this pack.[2]

Skyroot furniture pieces

Each piece comes in several colors, and the wool you use sets the color. Here is the full lineup using the black versions as examples:[2]

Colors

The Skyroot furniture recipes in this pack come in these wool colors: Black Wool, Blue Wool, Brown Wool, Cyan Wool, Gray Wool, Green Wool, Light Blue Wool, Light Gray Wool, Lime Wool and Magenta Wool. Each color has its own display case, seat and full set of seat backs, like Cyan Skyroot Display Case or Light Blue Skyroot Seat.[2]

Unverified The recipe data for this section only covers the colors listed above. It is not confirmed whether other colors of Skyroot furniture, or other Aether items, have recipes involving other mods in this pack.

No quests in this pack involve The Aether, so this furniture set is the integration to look out for.[2]

Which The Aether config options matter?

2 parts

Two Aether config options are worth knowing about in this pack. Both change what shows up on your screen rather than how the mod plays. Here's what each one does and how the pack sets it.[8][9]

Patreon message

The [[config:config/aether-common.toml#Gameplay.Show Patreon message]] option controls whether a message linking to The Aether mod's Patreon is shown. This pack sets it to false, so you won't see that message.[8]

Loading screen trivia

The [[config:config/aether-startup.toml#Gui.Enables random trivia]] option adds random trivia and tips to the bottom of loading screens. This pack sets it to false, so your loading screens won't show Aether trivia or tips.[9]

Tip: If you'd like the loading screen trivia and tips back, this is the option to set to true. Note that it lives in the startup config file, not the common one.[9]

Unverified The pack files don't show the mod's own default values for these two options, so it isn't confirmed whether the pack changed them or left them at their defaults. Gameplay settings such as dungeon or dimension options aren't covered by the available config files either.

What changed in The Aether between versions?

The Aether joined All the Mods 10 in pack version 4.6, arriving as mod version 1.5.9.[10]

  • All the Mods 10 4.6: The Aether 1.5.9 is added to the pack.[10]
  • All the Mods 10 4.12: The Aether is updated from 1.5.9 to 1.5.10.[11]
  • All the Mods 10 6.2.1: The Aether 1.5.10 is still the version you get, shipped as aether-1.21.1-1.5.10-neoforge.jar.[1]

If you're playing All the Mods 10 6.2.1, you're on The Aether 1.5.10. The pack changelogs record no further version change for this mod after the 4.12 update.[1][11]

Unverified The pack changelogs only list version numbers, and no changelog from the mod itself was available. So the specific fixes or features in the 1.5.9 to 1.5.10 update, and whether that update changed any gameplay you'd notice, can't be confirmed here.
