Valegate Newsletter : May 2025
Greetings, Valegate community!
May has been a month of big changes, exciting launches, and heartfelt transitions. Here's everything you need to know about what’s been happening across the Valegate Network.
🌊 Isles of Vale: A New Era Begins
We are thrilled to report that the launch of Isles of Vale has been a resounding success. From the very first day, players have been diving into the new world with enthusiasm, exploring its unique mechanics, custom lore, and rich environments.
The positive feedback we have received has made all the long nights of development worthwhile. Thank you to everyone who helped bring Isles of Vale to life — from our staff team to our testers, and of course, every one of you who joined on launch day and beyond.
🏛️ Saying Goodbye to Civilization
With the joy of new beginnings also comes the difficulty of letting go. As previously announced, the Civilization Server has now officially closed.
This decision was not made lightly. Civilization was a cornerstone ofsS the Valegate experience — a world shaped by your creativity, diplomacy, and daring. From vast empires to humble towns, the stories built there will not be forgotten.
We honour the memories and achievements forged within its borders and remain deeply grateful to every player who called Civilization home.
🎖️ Rank Transfers
For those who held ranks on Civilization, we’ve got good news — your rank doesn’t end there.
All existing ranks can now be transferred to an equivalent rank on either Isles of Vale or Slimefun, ensuring your support is honoured no matter where you choose to play. Whether you're a long-time supporter or recently joined, your contribution to the network is valued and recognized.
To request your rank transfer, please reach out through our #get-help channel and file a General Enquiry Ticket!
🌎 World Download
The Civilization world has been fully downloaded — we are currently compressing and preparing the files for upload. Once ready, the download will be released in the #updates channel on Discord.
⚙️ Major Staff Reforms
We would like to inform the community that this Friday, we will be publishing for the first time our updated Staff Code of Conduct and Guidelines.
Alongside this, you will see significant changes aimed at improving transparency, consistency, and professionalism across the entire Valegate staff team. Our goal is to create a safer and more enjoyable environment for both players and staff alike.
These reforms may include staff changes as we continue to strengthen the team.
Finally, congratulations to Sparky0075 on joining the Valegate staff team — we’re excited to have you onboard!
Stay tuned for the full release and details on how these reforms will support the continued growth and integrity of the Valegate community.
🐍 Slimefun 1.21 Progress Update
We are still working hard on researching and preparing for the Slimefun 1.21 update.
As many Slimefun players know, this update has taken considerable time on Slimefun’s end to finalize. Myself and Zev continue to closely monitor the status of addons and their updates.
Once everything is compatible and updated, we’ll be ready to roll out the Slimefun 1.21 release on Valegate.
Thank you for your patience and enthusiasm!
🧸 The Plushie Crate is Coming!
Exciting news for Slimefun fans — the Plushie Crate will be arriving on 1st June 2025!
Get ready to collect adorable plushies, including the much-anticipated WikedWitch plushie along with all your favourite mob plushies.
Plus, each month the top voter will receive a special plushie reward as a thank you for supporting Valegate!
We’ll also be trialling the sale of keys for the Plushie Crate on our webstore — please note this is only a trial and applies to custom-item crates only.
Keys will also be obtainable from the vote crate, giving everyone a chance to unlock these cuddly collectibles.
Stay tuned for more details as the launch day approaches — it’s going to be a cuddly good time!
