Deep Aether
Deep Aether (DA) is an unofficial addon for The Aether for Minecraft versions from 1.19.2 to 1.21.1. It is developed by Team Razor.
The addon adds lots of new features to give players a chance to venture deeper into the dimension, with new content. Basically, this mod aims to give the Aether the "1.16 - Nether Expansion Update" treatment, adding new blocks and items, ores (along with tool, weapon, and armor sets), biomes, mobs, structures, etc.
Environment
Biomes
Deep Aether adds a variety of new modern biomes, including some sub-biomes to handle diversity.
There are 6 main biomes and 3 sub-biomes.
| Biome Name | Description | Image |
|---|---|---|
| Cloud | A large collection of aerclouds, far up into the sky. It's home to the Brass Dungeon. | |
| Aerlavender Fields | A fairly common field of Aerlavender plants. Similar to Aether's original biomes. It is home to a lot of Golden Oak trees. | |
| Aerglow Forest | A common and beautiful forest filled with Roseroot trees and a flourishing flora. | |
| Blue Aerglow Forest | A sub-biome of the Aerglow Forest. Similar to the normal forest, but only contains the blue variant of Roseroot trees. | |
| Mystic Aerglow Forest | A sub-biome of the Aerglow Forest. It's the rarest variant, hosting both normal and blue Roseroot trees. | |
| Golden Heights | A rare biome with a recognizable golden feel to it. Sunroot and Conberry trees grow here with other unique flora. | |
| Golden Grove | A sub-biome of the Golden Heights. It's often found neighboring the parent biome. | |
| Luminescent Forest | A softly lit forest, overgrown with vines and other flora. Large Skyroot trees and various types of luminous plants are found here often. | |
| Yagroot Swamp | An extremely dangerous swamp shaped by poison. It's home to the Yagroot trees and other dangerous hazards. |

History
Deep Aether's idea was initially born from Aethyus' desire to add new flora for the Aether dimension.
Officially, the mod started development on June 8th 2022 on Forge for Minecraft version 1.18, following what at the time was the latest alpha of the Aether rewrite.
In the first few weeks Deep Aether was developed with a combination of manual coding and MCreator, leading to a number of important issues and overall slow development. MCreator was shortly dropped and development quickly shifted to the two main developers: darksonic300 and TunefulTurnip.
