Bedrock custom GUIs now match their Java layouts
All 43 converted menu overlays now use the correct row-aware placement, title matching, and resource-pack textures. Menus no longer appear shifted, disappear, or draw stray lines down the screen.

The next major step
Closed playtesting is getting close.
SkyRealms is nearing the point where closed playtesting can begin. Tester details, dates, requirements, and joining instructions will be shared through BlockBusterMC Discord announcements. Stay tuned and keep an eye on the announcement channels so you do not miss your chance to help test the realm before release.

What just changed
Latest saved updatesRecent changes
A real development changelog for the newest SkyRealms systems, fixes, and work still underway.
Latest
Custom crate previews now render correctly on Bedrock
Magical, legendary, generator, and other crate previews now receive their intended custom interface instead of a plain inventory or negative-spacing artifacts.
Full Bedrock cinematic visual parity is complete
Bedrock now receives the complete camera route, boss-bar presentation, dark travel transitions, island-start screen, and generator-area construction visuals without flashing line artifacts.
Every dungeon door now stays visible on Bedrock
The full animated door sequence is mirrored throughout the dungeon, so later doors no longer disappear after the first room.
The goal board now uses the correct renderer for each client
Java players receive the original animated board while Bedrock players receive the compatible compact board, with duplicate displays removed for both editions.
The Bedrock resource and model pipeline is synchronized
Scaffolding now converts and delivers the Nexo pack through Geyser while keeping its GUI overlays and ModelEngine mappings synchronized after reloads.
The animated spawn portal now survives restarts without duplicates
The portal picture now keeps one persistent animated item display. Startup recreation, missing-entity respawn fallbacks, and forced join visibility packets were removed so static copies no longer accumulate after restarts.
Safe purge-all island deletion is complete
Administrators can now remove every registered island through a guarded two-step confirmation. BentoBox 3.11.1 deletion dispatch was corrected and the complete purge flow was verified live.
Sale and dungeon milestone tracking passed final verification
Island sales and successful dungeon completions now count once, save correctly, and update shared progress for the full island team.
The rules menu passed its live usability review
Every category in the configurable in-game menu is now verified for readability, usability, and compatibility across supported clients.
Claim All and reward reminders are complete
Unclaimed milestone rewards are now easier to find and collect without opening every individual milestone entry.
Problem-area stalls and disconnects are resolved
Overloaded chunks, dropped items, item displays, and unusual custom data were repaired so problem areas no longer stall the server or overwhelm nearby players’ clients.
Teleport transitions passed their final route-by-route test
Spawn, warps, homes, private caves, dungeons, portals, and island-panel travel are verified on Java and Bedrock without missed, delayed, or duplicate transitions.
Seasonal selling passed final validation
Full seasonal values, stacking, payouts, restarts, Sell Chests, /sellall, and full-inventory behavior are now confirmed end to end.
The latest crossplay updates are complete
Java and Bedrock connection, resource loading, gameplay, reconnection, and server switching are verified after the newest network compatibility updates.
The dungeon build passed final live validation
Queueing, countdowns, animated doors, waves, gates, chests, the boss, rewards, deaths, exits, cleanup, and recovery paths are confirmed from beginning to end.
Seasonal models and drops passed their final presentation review
Tier 1–3 models, textures, holograms, generator facing, drop height, gravity, and centering are now verified in game.
Full SkyRealms core validation is underway
The upgraded core is ready for a complete cloned-server playtest covering generators, tools, shops, upgrades, caves, player data, restarts, duplicate protection, and rollback before final activation.
Complete island reset and cleanup testing is planned
The new cleanup protections are built; creation, resets, deletion, generators, seasonal data, holograms, drops, island helpers, and restart behavior still need one complete lifecycle pass.
Generator farming now respects island activity
Seasonal generators pause when every island member is offline. Visitors cannot keep another island producing, collect its generated drops, or merge protected output across islands.
Stacked drops now sell completely and at the correct value
Identical seasonal drops can stack up to 1,028. Sell Chests read RoseStacker's real hidden count, pay for the entire stack in one collection pass, and preserve every configured seasonal-item value.
Nexo and MythicCrucible now load as one automatic pack
MythicCrucible's generated pack is imported into Nexo, while Nexo handles the delayed join dispatch. Players receive one combined pack without the second download replacing Nexo's custom assets.
Seasonal drops stay visible above their custom models
Generated items no longer fall inside Nexo furniture. Their gravity is disabled, their spawn height is corrected, and they remain centered above each visible generator model.
Island resets now clean up generators and Jerry
Confirmed BentoBox reset and delete events remove normal generators, seasonal generators, holograms, tracked drops, purchased seasonal slots, Jerry, and their saved records from the old island.
Natural Rift Invasions remain paused for controlled testing
The feature set is complete, but full victories, Anchor controls, Shard-shop progress, guide credit, rewards, and cleanup are being proven before natural attacks are enabled.
Sell Chest contract tracking is being finished
Sell Chest compatibility is built. End-to-end payout, offline income, sold-item totals, and material-specific contract progress still need their final live confirmation.
Permanent milestone title rewards are planned
Major normal and seasonal achievements will grant permanent, configurable player titles that remain earned after an event ends.
One-time island tier broadcasts remain planned
Major Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond, and Celestial promotions will receive server-wide recognition without creating repetitive chat spam.
