The Universal Mod Distribution Engine
After 14 months of closed beta testing, our latest core update brings native Proton compatibility, reducing average mod load times by 68% on handheld hardware. The new dependency resolver now handles 4,000+ concurrent package references without thread blocking.
We've also rewritten the background sync engine to use delta-compressed manifests, cutting bandwidth usage for large texture packs by up to 42%. Server infrastructure has been migrated to a distributed edge network across Frankfurt, Singapore, and Virginia, ensuring sub-200ms API response times for mod authors and end-users alike. Existing installations will auto-patch within 48 hours.
