2.4.0 Beta 1

This update is long overdue and I apologize for that. It's mostly fixes with amethyst geodes. I've highlighted some long-standing bugs from 2.3.1 and 2.3.2 as they've been a thorn in the sides of many for quite some time, the rest of the change log will follow these highlights.

Highlight fixes: (Please re-enable these options if you disabled them specifically for these issues):

• Fixed furnace crackle playing the sound in empty furnaces

• Fixed mesa shafts crashing servers.

• Fix new boats being glitchy by making them a clientside controlled vehicle once more. (Thanks embeddedt!)

• New boats can also break lily pads

• Added a mixin to fix stepping from a lower block into a two block tall entrance (Thanks again embeddedt!!)

• (No fix for stepping from lower blocks onto stairs/slabs yet)

• Fixed some ore generation issues that would cause stuff like diorite, granite, and andesite to not generate exposed to air

• Fixed an issue with the mod's entity replacer which caused enabling new boats over old boats to completely break some worlds.

• Added amethyst geodes and the relating blocks, calcite, smooth basalt, amethyst clusters (split into two IDs), budding amethyst and amethyst blocks.

• Amethyst geodes currently generate in a circle. The vanilla 1.17 code is highly complex and I wasn't able to port it. The size of the circle still varies though.

• Several workstation blocks from 1.14 have been added although they don't do anything yet. Their item description clarifies that they are currently non-functioning.

• Blast Furnace and Smoker no longer show in NEI when they're disabled

• Mesa mineshafts no longer carve bubbles in blocks above them. (For regular mineshafts being fixed, see BugTorch)

• Fixed berry bushes not consuming bone meal

• Frost walker no longer generates ice over entities

• Fly-sprinting actually works now

2.3.2

Hotfix for crash with MAtmos.

2.3.1

This update removes sounds from the jar entirely, they are now downloaded from Mojang's servers, or if you already downloaded versions that have these sounds, those are used instead.

Fixes #92, granite/diorite/andesite recipes are corrected

Fixes the asset downloading not working for some users

Added Pigstep and Otherside. The former is found in Nether Fortress chests rarely, while the latter is found in stronghold corridor and dungeon chests rarely.

2.3.0

Configs have been refactored.
You will have customize your configs up again unless updating from a beta of the 2.3.0 build.

New wall types were backported.

Shulker Boxes and Shulkers have been implemented, but are unobtainable without changing a config to make Shulkers spawn randomly in the end.
This will change once end cities have been back ported.
If Shulkers spawn anywhere and a new setting is enabled, they will also get a color based on the terrain.

Added NEI support for Smoker and Blast Furnace recipes.

Added Mesa biome gold generation, which is 20 gold veins from Y32 to Y80.

Replaced regular mineshafts in Mesa biomes with ones made from dark oak that can generate near or at the surface.

All vanilla and most modded fences with matching materials will connect with each other.

All vanilla and most modded walls with matching materials will connect with each other.

The modern brewing stand now uses the correct icon.

2.3.0-beta-3

Added NEI support for Smoker and Blast Furnace recipes.

Fixed a server side crash caused by waxing or scraping a copper block.
