Unused features

Since the very beginning of the Aether mod, there have been multiple features that either have no use or were dummied out later on. They may have been leftovers from removed features or placeholders for things in future updates.

This only documents features that still exist in the mod. See Removed features for former features no longer in the mod.

Blocks and items

Claymore

Claymores were a planned weapon for The Aether II mod, and not much is known about them besides being inferred from the texture file, which is in the "assets/aether/textures/item_renders/claymore" directory of the mod's aether-1.7.10-1.6.jar file. Its texture appears similar to the stylization of Silver Dungeons in the original The Aether mod.

Molten Axe

Molten Axes were a planned weapon for The Aether II mod, and not much is known about them besides being inferred from the texture file, which is in the "assets/aether/textures/item_renders/molten_axe" directory of the mod's aether-1.7.10-1.6.jar file. Its name may hint at its special affects (fire damage and/or setting things on fire) and/or it's relation to Gold Dungeons in the original The Aether mod.

Present

Main article: Present

Presents were blocks in the original Aether I mod. They spawned near Christmas Trees, which were occasionally found in areas with snow. They could not be obtained as a block legitimately, unless in Creative Mode. Breaking a present would either spawn activated TNT, give experience or drop Ginger Bread Men, a Candy Cane, or a Candy Cane Sword. The spawned TNT would only destroy 1-2 blocks, and the spawned TNT or experience drops were the most likely results.
