Today, we added Villager Market to the server, giving your Towns a great way to provide income to your citizens, or yourself I don't judge. Along with this, @Jac Sarte also built a nice little marketplace at the spawn point which has a few villagers for players to rent out and sell to people!
Pictures of what it looked like as he built it is included in this post, along with the final look 🙂 Each store front is 500 per 7 days, or you can purchase a village shop for yourself for 200 and put it in your own town!
The following addons have been added to The Forgotten!
Player Auctions are now a thing in the world! You can access the menu by typing /pa help to get a list of commands!
Trading has been readded to the world after a fun little glitch made it impossible to split stacks! You can trade with people by typing /trade <player> and them either clicking accept or doing /trade accept!
Lately in our path to adding more fun and quality of life additions to The Forgotten, we have added in two new systems! One is honey pistons, and the other is honeyXP bottles.
Honey Pistons allows you to create sticky pistons but with just honey. Allowing for players to create new machines without having to go hunt down slimes. It just requires one bottle of honey and a piston to create.
Honey XP bottles lets you save up XP, just in case you decide to drop dead somewhere out there in the wilds! To create honeyXP bottles, you will need to have a lightning rod attached to a block of lapis. Just take out your honey bottle, use it on the lightning rod and bam! Saved up XP.
We continue to look for new addons that will expand on our adventures, and create more of a fun atmosphere for our players. If you have suggestions, please feel free to drop them off in https://www.aethro.net/forums/forum/11-suggestions-ideas/ or visit us in discord to discuss it.
After a bit of searching, we are pleased and tickled pink to be welcoming Zuri Morningstar to the Estate team! Zuri comes with energy and ideas to get our resort ready for your visits, and making sure you have a good time. She is skilled in the principles of administration and management in the service industry, including strategic planning, production methods, human resources, and the coordination of people and resources. If you see Zuri roaming around please make sure to say hi!
Happy Friday all!
I have updated the rules channel to actually be a bit more expanded besides just saying "Don't do this" and included rules for each property we have at this time. I also edited a few things with the backend code for the announcements to the website, twitter, facebook and discord...so that's why there is this news article lol.
So um...cheers and what not! And see you on the flip side.
The following was changed in The Forgotten:
You can now chop down entire trees by destroying the base block! (Must use an axe)
Leaves will now quickly despawn when the tree they're attached to is broken.
Turrets are being added to the world! They are being tested, but it will be added to the spawn area for purchase.
Multiverse has been added!
We are still working on the creation of portals and what worlds to be connected. There is a portal in Kalismor that leads to a test world that is so far just ice.
Pronouns can now be set! They will soon be shown in chat as well. You can type /pronouns to set yours.
New food types have been added! Enjoy your hamburger.
When you leave your town, there will be 20 seconds of protection to make sure you are not ganked.
Geyser has been updated to the latest version for bedrock players.
The world now only needs 20% of the players online to sleep. If less than that does not sleep, then night will remain.
You will also fully heal when sleeping.
Today, I did some work on the backend and some of the front end things with our discord server and website.
Discord Changes
Removed Dev Trackers category. The system was being clunky and with other projects going on, it has been removed for the time being.
Removed Gold and Silver subscription tiers. These were just for fun and testing, nothing was actually done with them so just removed it to clean up the channels list.
Added in GTAV RP category for the new fiveM server. This includes a new chat room and voice chat.

We are still hiring and working diligently on our Estates in Second Life, and working on the Forgotten (they are not forgotten!). This includes new expansions in Second Life, starting with our Resort area which will be opening soon, donation system and continued advertisement of our minecraft server, along with preparing for our FiveM launch! If you have any questions or think you can help us out in any of our projects, please visit our hiring area or our chat at https://aethro.net/chat and speak to us! We'd love to hear from you.
With this daily restart, we are adding in Portals for players to craft! This allows you to make your own portal network, which does allow animals and vehicles to pass through, to connect regions you just can't get too by train or foot!
For details on how it works, you can visit our page about it: Portal system - Aethro
