Well I am about to give up to. No news on twitter I tried to stalk him on his last mc server but, he hasn't been on in 2 years, I heard a rumor he was working with the aether team but, nobody heard of him there. I tweeted to him again but, I think it's hopeless

God, it's hard to see this go. But it's time to give up. There's no way this is going to keep going. It's been over a year sense the mod has been updated. I've been a fan of this sense "Eternal Isles." I've had a lot of great memories from this mod. It may be one of the best in existence. Well, that's done. Goodbye you all. Goodbye AoA. If anything gets updated, let me know. I'm on almost every day.:( Thanks for the great memories Xolva.
Well, this is an interesting turn of events. It was as if just last week this thread was blooming with activity. And now its dead quiet....
There is that off-chance that Xolova could possibly return. Take the Twilight Forest mod for example. It hadn't received an update in years, and everyone thought it was dead for sure. But surprisingly, in the last few months TF got updated. Nobody though that it ever would - not after all these years. But it did. AoA could turn out the same way.
Of course, however there is also always that off-chance that nothing happens. Take Animusic 3 for example (even though its not related Minecraft, it fits what I'm describing pretty well). The developer of Animusic 3 said, after Animusic 2 was released (in 2005) that Animusic 3 would come. Its 2017 now. The developer over the past 12 years has said "I will try to make it come". Still hasn't came.
I think I will stick around, at least for now. However, I'll have you know that I'm not sticking around because I'm waiting for an update. As far as I know, just because a mod does not update, doesn't mean that people won't play it. Even though mods like OreSpawn and Twilight Forest have not received updates for extended periods of time, people still played them. And I imagine that people will keep playing AoA, regardless of whether it gets updated or not. And you know what? There's probably some people out there who never update their mods, even if their chat gets spammed with update requests every time they login to the game, they choose to ignore it. They're playing the mod for the mod, for what it offers, not for the updates. So really the only people who are affected by the lack of updates are the people that pay close attention to them, and update regularly.
I'm not sure what I'm going to do about the Upcoming content on the AoA wiki...
Yeah I think it's safe to say that he gave up on minecraft I blame micorosoft stupid eula updates since 1.8.1+. Guess he couldn't take all the crap. When a game is no longer fun don't play it

The EULA was purely updated to disallow servers giving players who donated money an advantage over those who had not.
And besides, EULA does not affect mods in any serious way.
I honestly wish people would get over the EULA updates, as they actually had very little effect aside from what I stated the last 2 lines up, people overreacted to a change that, in the end, helped provide players with a better on-line experience with the game, and because of the hate of a large amount of younger players, the overreaction went further, spreading to more players, which, in the end was the cause of Notch leaving the development of the game.
And, Microsoft has likely not been the ones who enforced these changes to the Minecraft EULA, It was probably Mojang's decision, much like all the other things players blame Microsoft for.
In the event all of what I have just said is completely irrelevant and wrong, I still doubt that EULA would have been the true cause of XolovA stopping development, you have no evidence to support that claim. Plus, I'm almost certain that whatever EULA updates you mean have no negative effects on regular players of Minecraft.
TL:DR: (I wish people didn't ask for these sometimes) EULA does nothing (That I immediately know of)to the modding community.

Yeah, watching the thread go quiet was very off-putting (exactly why I'm leaving, I can't bare to watch this die like this, I think my heart would break).
And yes, there is a chance that XolovA could return suddenly and update, i know of a server that took 4 years to update one of it's games, despite constantly saying it was nearly done, but we have no idea when or if he will (here's hoping that he does.)
And as for the Upcoming Content page, maybe add something saying that we are currently unaware of the chances for these updates to arrive? I'm not sure.
Ok, now I've made two huge posts, I'm going back to having my virus, fun fun, being sick.

Not talking about that I am talking about all the crap they had on content creators fallowing that update after September 2014. Yes it did in march of last year they went and took down a crap ton of mods. No it really wasn't mojang's decision to crap on content creators. Xolova's last tweet was calling mojang stupid for yet another terrible eula update for content creators. He said why are they doing this when content creators are keeping minecraft alive
and yes eula has everything to do with modding. It doesn't fallow the eula the mod is gone and believe me the wiped alot of the mods out already.

I see no proof of Mojang taking town mods for breaking the guidelines of the EULA, nowhere in the EULA does it mention anything against modding unless the mod itself has malicious code, which in AoA's case, does not.
Also, when Xolova made that post nothing about it implied the EULA was giving him trouble, it was likely something pertaining to the difficulty of updating the mod from 1.7.10 to 1.8+, or something.
I've never seen mention of Mojang taking down mods at all, if they did take down a "crapton" of mods, wouldn't it spark controversy among the whole modding community? How come I've never heard about it in the FTB subreddit, FTB forums, twitter pages of various modders, Curseforge, Minecraft forums, or Xolova himself? If it happened in March of last year, when he was still a little active, how come he never said a thing about it, if his post did imply the EULA, then how come it was posted in May instead of March? The only person who I've seen mentioning this is you, randomly claiming stuff like this.
If you think it's dead, just leave, I can understand one's concern for the current state of this mod, but constantly complaining and using Mojang as a scapegoat gets us nowhere.
As for me, I'm going to take a pretty long hiatus from here as well since there's not much happening here, but I'm starting to get sick of seeing these pointless rants.

You quote a eula that got modified 8 times since then and yes it's still there you may not modify or contain any vanilla source code there goes a third of the mods out the window proof of this first sighting when optifine site went down and why they still won't give you anything below 1.7.2.
there were many attempts to crap on content creators and rules before that as well.
I know what I am talking about if you don't pay attention to what's happened and what's happening it's not my fault. This stupid argument is done try telling that no mods were removed to optifine damage indicators person and many more that the microsoft didn't coab with mc forums admins on their eula changes it also effected curse but, more mildly

This pretty much describes how I feel. Honestly the reason I come to this thread was never to see if there were any updates; just to see what the community is talking about. Even without updates, I was pretty active playing this mod up until Armakeen's server stopped opening, as I don't have much incentive to play in Singleplayer.
Honestly, I'd say that this thread did pretty well given the lack of development; many other threads (such as the Twilight Forest, which is actively being developed) hardly get 1-2 posts a week.

We could play some AoA but, your timeframe might be off though....
I remember when I joined the official server for the first time, it was so satisfying, do you know why ?
Because it was the very first time I was playing on a modded server. I had already played DivineRPG but in Singleplayer so it was totally different... I played for maybe 2 months on the server but it was my best Minecraft experience after 5 years playing the Game. I really enjoyed it when we recently played together on my server It lasted around 1 month but, for me, it was enough to explore most of the AoA content. That's why I decided to move on an other game. I'm really sorry for the people who wanted to keep playing on it. Btw, I'll not delete the map because I know I'll want to run the server again in few months.
I'll continue to watch the thread every day (in case I learn something interesting) but I'll rarely post something, see you soon guys ! (and sorry for my bad english again)
The Advent server was actually the first modded server I played on too, and the first basic survival server as well.
Honestly, before I joined the server, I was much worse at the whole of Minecraft itself, after playing with the server, I eventually ended up getting better at playing modded and survival.
This mod is amazing and complex. It have EVERYTHING: different and beautiful dimensions, cool mobs with cool abilities, epic weapons, epic armors, gods, what can help to you, minigames, skills, bosses ect.
This is my favorite for 3 years. Great job, Xolova, great job.
Questions:
-How are you progressing with Shyrelands, Everland, Ethereus, Playtopia and Labricon?
-What's with Necromancer (Warlock of Death)?
-What will be in the Angels and Demons update?
-This mod compatible to make maps with it?
Thanks for your anwsers.
Good luck for AoA, other mods and life.:)
(Sorry, if my language was bad, but I'm not english)
The mod is dead. If I were you, I would stop hoping an update.

Should we say goodbye?
When everything you care about will change
Man this sucks, seeing this forum like this.
So sad to see it go and rot slowly.
But if this TRULY is the end, then I want to be apart of it.
So, Goodbye all. Reading all of your posts daily, waiting for an answer from Xol really made me feel apart of this community.
Nobody really knows me, as I've only posted once *about Armakeen's server* but I have been here for a while.
So, goodbye. Goodbye to this forum. Goodbye to the people of the forum. Goodbye to Xolova and his mod.
Maybe one day, I will return. But now isn't the time.
If the mod ever gets an update, I will be here, Reading it.
Goodbye.
FROT's my name, doing stuff is the game. *Rolls right of the tongue, am I right?*
