Erupe is a community-built server for Monster Hunter Frontier - All versions. It is a complete reverse engineered solution to self-host a Monter Hunter Frontier server.

![IMPORTANT] The purpose of this branch is to have a clean transition from a functional 9.2.0 release, to a future 9.3.0 version. Over the last 2 years after the release of 9.2.0, many commits introduced broken features.
