Hello! :D Well now that the formalities are over with, I have news. I wanted to be able to play 1.2.5 Aether in minecraft without the assistance of an extra launcher. Well, with the new minecraft launcher, I was able to do that. So I have a packaged 1.2.5 version of the mod which you can download a full, already made minecraft version with it I have done. Simply go into roaming>.minecraft>versions, open the .zip folder, extract the Aether folder into versions, open the minecraft launcher, select the Aether version and BOOM! Aether mod! If you don't know how to get to roaming, go to your windows menu ((sorry mac users, I don't know what to do for you)), go to search and type %appdata% and that'll take you to it. I DID NOTHING FOR THE MOD ITSELF FULL CRED TO AETHER TEAM FOR THAT. I will make a just Aether II version when it comes out
