CHANGELOG

Please remember this is only a summary of the changes, I won't list every single change to keep this readable.

IMPORTANT NOTES

I know I may have not added all wrappers/features that might have been suggested. They will be ready when they are ready. We focus on quality and not quantity when it comes to wrappers. Giving deadlines usually results in rushed and bad products. The same applies when it comes to PacketEvents' 1.8 stable release, it will be ready when its ready. Speed up the process by updating to the pre-releases and reporting bugs! 🙂

If you are sharing PacketEvents, you need to soft-depend ProtocolLib, ViaVersion, ProtocolSupport and Geyser-Spigot in your plugin.
Example plugin.yml

name: myplugin
version: 1.0.0
main: me.opdeveloper.myplugin.MainClass
author: myname
softdepend:
  - ProtocolLib
  - ProtocolSupport
  - ViaVersion
  - Geyser-Spigot
