Mo-Variants 7.3 Mo-not bricking worlds...

Since V7.0 There has been an oversight that has caused support for 1.20 & 1.20.1 to not work. This will be fixed in 7.3.1.

From the team at Rainy Realm Create:
We are very sorry about how buggy the last few updates have been. We removed them as we found out how bugged they were, trying to release new versions as we patched out bugs. We have had some growing pains behind the scenes, but the packs we make will come out infintely better for it.

We will be making some changes over the next few updates to enure some of these things never happen again. We understand you may be cautious of downloading this version, but if it is still here 24 hours after release(which it is) then it isn't crashing your world or anything.

We have big things planned for this pack, and look forward to delivering you those updates.

Fixes:

• Fixed an issue causing Ikorrs to spawn in the THOUSANDS on top of Iko's, causing severe lag and even crashes
• Fixed an issue causing Arch Demons to spawn hundreds at a time causing severe lag
• Fixed bossbars
• Fixed an issue causing hundreds of Illusioners to spawn at a once
