AmpXtreme
by santient
AmpXtreme extends the vanilla Amplified world type with taller terrain, reaching up to y=2031 through a data pack, and vertical biome transitions.
What it does
Installed as a data pack on top of the Amplified generation type, AmpXtreme raises the highest possible world height to y=2031, above the vanilla build limit. Players create a new world, select the AMPLIFIED generation type, and add the data pack during setup. The author adjusted the generation so worlds stay playable in survival, with a challenging experience at monumental scale.
The mod adds vertical biome transitions, so biomes blend across height instead of meeting at flat boundaries. Snow lines can be raised with a higher snow line setting so snow starts higher up and does not cover the whole world. Because the terrain is much taller, the author recommends a performance optimization mod and extra memory when running high render distances.
A server must run AmpXtreme, while players may join without installing it. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source, and its files target 1.20 – 1.21.8 on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt. A Data pack build is also available for server platforms.
Key features
Taller Amplified worlds
The data pack lifts the world height ceiling to y=2031 on top of the Amplified generation type.
Vertical biome transitions
Biomes blend along the vertical axis, so tall terrain changes gradually instead of in hard bands.
Adjusted for survival
Generation changes were made so that worlds remain suitable for survival at the larger scale.
Higher snow lines
Snow can begin at a higher altitude, so it does not cover the entire tall world.

What the author says
This data pack scales up Amplified generation to the highest possible world height, up to y=2031, and also adds vertical biome transitions. The monumental scale and sheer complexity of the resulting generation is extraordinary! I've also made some adjustments to make this suitable for survival worlds, offering a…
