Amplified Nether
Players who want a taller Nether can install Amplified Nether, a server-side world generation mod that raises the Nether to 256 blocks in height.
What it does
Amplified Nether raises the height of the Nether dimension to 256 blocks and restores the mountain terrain shown in the early Nether Update footage. Biomes use 3D placement, so any biome can now meet any other.
Key features
Taller Nether height
The Nether dimension is generated up to 256 blocks tall instead of the vanilla ceiling.
Restored Nether mountains
Mountain terrain shown in the early Nether Update footage is generated again.
Free biome borders
