[Visuals Update]

Mods:

• Added Yung Structures Addon for Loot Integrations (by someaddon)

• Removed Endless Biomes (Caused many crashes and massive lag)

Configs:

• Added a quest for the Season Calendar
• Set the default render distance y-stretch to 400%. Feel free to lower this value in Video Settings for better performance.
• Heavily customized the default enabled config for the Euphoria Patches shaderpack so it works with the new colored lighting, alongside some other tweaks for a better experience.
• Increased the spawn rate of end cities by 150%. Keep in mind that end cities are unable to spawn on many modded blocks and are more common in vanilla biomes.
• VanilAA shaders are no longer enabled by default, as it caused issues for people on lower end GPUs. If you have a decent GPU then these shaders should still be fully compatible, and you will see much better graphics quality with it enabled and may even gain FPS.

Updates:

• Added 6 new structures (Philip's Ruins)
• Added a cooldown to Umvuthi's hurt animation to prevent him from getting stuck (Mowzies Mobs)
• Zooming now works when in third-person and will overall be a lot smoother (Just Zoom)
• Added Advanced Colored Lighting and Colored Light Fog, which allows for beautiful colored lighting to be created by light sources (Complementary Shaders)
• Added Carved Bases, which are a decorative block for the bottom of the walls in the bronze dungeon (Aether Redux)
• Added a new light block, the Runelight, which can be turned on/off with a right-click (Aether Redux)
• Added unique sky colors to some biomes (Aether Redux)
• Decreased the spawn rate of nagas (Mowzies Mobs)
• Entities hit by a torch or flint and steel will be set on fire (Amendments)

The following updates are specifically for when the Euphoria Patches shaderpack is enabled in Video Settings:

• Added custom properties to many modded blocks. The End and Nether dimensions are especially affected by this.
• Added a glitter rain shader option
• Added separate Border Fog settings (Distance and Density) for all dimensions
• Added a very beautiful End Crystal Vortex Option, alongside an ender dragon death animation
• Added a cloud render distance slider to control how far or near clouds will appear
• Added a new end portal effect
• Added a long exposure mode
• Added a tilt-shift option
• Added a waving sugar cane option
• End sky colors also change color in modded biomes now, amount can be changed with a slider
• Lava lakes in caves under y -55 in the Overworld will now also look like the nether lava lakes Special thanks to SpacEagle17 and EminGT for these amazing advancements in shaderpacking! You can support SpacEagle17's work here and EminGT here.

Fixes:

• Many mobs not having animations (Mowzies Mobs)
• Occasional startup crashes (ServerBrowser)
• Nagas getting stuck in water (Mowzies Mobs)
• Umvuthi losing his target when losing line of sight (Mowzies Mobs)
• Suns Blessing duration resetting on ability use (Mowzies Mobs)
• Jukeboxes having broken disc textures (Amendments)
• Candle holder flame position (Amendments)
• wooden blocks not working as furnace fuel (Mowzies Mobs)
• Magic effects can now hit nonliving entities like End Crystals (Mowzies Mobs)
• clawed logs not being smeltable into charcoal (Mowzies Mobs)
• Shelves not placing against the clicked face (Backpacked)
