🔮 Additional information

• Essor will no longer be developed for Forge, as development shifts toward NeoForge.
• Due to the modloader transition, save files created in v1.21.1 are not compatible with v1.21.8 and cannot be transferred. I’m aware of the inconvenience this brings, and I sincerely apologize for the disruption.
