[View on GitHub](https://github.com/xenondevs/Nova/releases/tag/0.18) _Combined changelog from 0.17-alpha.1 to 0.18-RC.8, this version is functionally the same as 0.18-RC.8, there was no stable release for 0.17_ ## Important 1. As always, please create a backup before updating to this version. 2. Nova addons are now loaded as plugins. This means that they now need to be placed in the plugins/ directory, and NOT plugins/Nova/addons/. Addon configs, recipes, etc. will be automatically moved to their new data folders. For this to work properly, the addons need to be present on the first startup of 0.18. ## General Changes - Updated to Minecraft 1.21.4 (1.20.4 is no longer supported) - Addons are now loaded as plugins - Nova now bundles all libraries instead of downloading them on startup. - `nova:wrench` was moved to the Logistics addon - Removed the shadow from fake vanilla boss bars & waila overlay background - Nova will now prevent server startup if FastAsyncWorldEdit is installed, as they are incompatible (#560) - Removed Oraxen support and added compatibility with Nexo - Added config option `resource_pack` > `japanese_glyph_variants` - Added `force_path_style` config option for S3 upload service (#415) - Energy networks now balance blocks that are insert & extract -
