Notice: as of EliteMobs 9, and due to major Minecraft & Spigot changes, the only version supported is Minecraft 1.21+. If you wish to run EliteMobs on a 1.19.4-1.20.4 server, you will have to use the last version of EliteMobs 8.

Further, we took the opportunity to make some massive improvements that were a long time coming. Among other things, we are already deep in the process of replacing the schematic dungeons with world dungeons, with many of the maps already made. Those maps will have the original build, improved, plus several other builds, and new bosses, powers, items and so on, generally making them much larger, more interesting and using more recent features like custom powers and, in some cases, custom models. If you have purchased a premium schematic dungeon, you will be able to download the upgraded larger world dungeon it will turn into in the same place you originally downloaded the schematic dungeon. Schematic dungeons have been replaced with BetterStructures shrines, which fill the role of schematic dungeons much better than schematic dungeons were ever able to.
