Aetherveil

Changes since 1.0.1: Skydrakes take to the sky, a re-balanced dimension where every biome can actually be found, a shimmering Rainbow Ichor, planetary rings across the sky, and a single tidy creative tab.
🌍 Biomes
Biome sizes are rebalanced: no biome dominates the dimension anymore, and every surface biome now takes a similar share
Rare biomes such as Celestial Summit, Skyrift Chasm and Crystal Peaks can now actually be found by exploring, not only with /locate
Core Caverns and Fractured Abyss no longer replace surface biomes, and caves start slightly deeper
Existing chunks are not changed, so explore new areas to see the new layout
🐉 Creatures
Skydrakes now fly and patrol the sky above Aetherveil, and spawn near players
Tamed Aetherveil creatures now defend their owner and attack whatever the owner attacks
Hostile spawn eggs are disabled in Peaceful and show the vanilla "Disabled in Peaceful" tooltip
🌈 Rainbow Ichor
The fluid now has animated, shimmering visuals, in still and flowing form and on the bucket
🪐 Sky
Planetary rings are drawn across the sky of Aetherveil
Optional config file: config/aetherveil_rings.properties (radius.shaders and radius.vanilla) adjusts how far away the rings are drawn
🎒 Creative menu
One single Aetherveil tab, ordered by category: building, lamps, wood, nature, materials, spawn eggs
Items are sorted by color inside each group
🐛 Fixes
Structure generation no longer writes outside the chunk area being generated
Hardened gate, rift, portal and travel logic, and the biome banner map handling
The locate/teleport command now knows the "mere" feature and loads the chunk before looking up the ground
🔧 Compatibility
Minecraft Java 26.3, Fabric API 0.161 or newer, Java 25
Ring rendering checked against Iris 1.11.6 and Sodium 0.9.3
