🚧 EARLY PROJECT

This project is still in its early stages, which means some basic features are missing and you may encounter bugs. If you’d like to help out, testing and reporting issues would be a huge support. The best place to report problems is on the GitHub Issues page (Feedback/Suggestions are also welcome). Please avoid using CurseForge’s built-in issue tracker, since it’s harder to manage and often leads to duplicate reports.

Because the project is developing quickly, new builds will roll out at a fast pace. For downloading stable releases, I recommend sticking with CurseForge, but if you run into a bug, check GitHub first — it may already be fixed in a nightly build or in a version that’s still waiting for CurseForge approval.

TL:DR: use CurseForge for stable downloads, GitHub for bug reports, and keep an eye on nightly builds if you want the very latest fixes. Your feedback and testing will help shape the project as it grows.


Quick Start

  1. Download and place the plugin in your server's plugins folder
  2. Start the server — a default config will be generated
  3. Edit config/AetherLink/config.json with your Discord bot token
  4. Add your channel ID(s) to the configuration
