Bad Apple World Preset

by Klinbee

Bad Apple World Preset is a world generation preset that shapes the terrain of a world from the frames of a well-known music video, using the video's seed.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalMIT LicenseOpen source1.20 – 1.21.8

What it does

The preset generates a world whose terrain follows the frames of the video, so its shapes appear across the map. The video's seed is used for generation, and the preset comes in two forms: a regular version that keeps the usual terrain, and a video version only that presents the frames alone. In the video version, the 42 blank frames at the beginning do not generate.

The mod depends on More Density Functions 2.2.1 or later, which must be installed alongside it. Noise caves, aquifers, rivers, peaks, mushroom islands and biomes are all generated, and biomes use a 100x scale. An optional setting enables more accurate terrain and water, and the depth biome parameter is handled differently from vanilla. No Caves is an optional dependency that changes how caves are handled. The server is required to run the preset, while clients may leave it out. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 16 release versions, 1.20 – 1.21.8, under the MIT License, and the project is open source.

Key features

  1. Frame-based terrain

    The world shape is generated from the frames of a music video.

  2. Two preset forms

    A regular version keeps standard terrain, while a video version presents the frames only.

  3. Accurate terrain option

    An optional setting produces more accurate terrain and water in the generated world.

  4. Biome scaling

    Biomes are generated at a 100x scale, changing how large each biome region appears.
