Illager Invasion is a faithful continuation of their work, with many additions, improvements, overhauls, and bug fixes. 🌟 Thanks to ZekeSmith who found the original Illager Expansion source code after it was deleted by Dricky, making this port possible under the terms of the MIT license. 🌟 Thanks to safrodev for working on the 1.19.2 version of Illager Expansion, the Horn of Sight texture is taken from there. 🌟 Thanks to Tamlighter for creating many amazing new textures.
