Badlands Biomes Dimension
by mahmudindev
Badlands Biomes Dimension sends players to a separate dimension that generates only badlands biome variations, reached through a portal built from obsidian, terracotta and cobblestone.
What it does
Activating the portal opens a dimension whose terrain is produced by a custom biome source, so every area there is a badlands variant. The portal frame uses obsidian with terracotta blocks, and corner positions use cobblestone, which lets players build the gateway in a survival world.
The mod runs on the server alone, so players join without installing it. It requires Dimension Fixer, Modified Biome Source and World Portal, and it works with Portal Integration. Fabric API, and Modified Biome Source - TerraBlender, are optional. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with builds covering 1.20.1 – 26.2, and the mod is released under All rights reserved. Public source code and an issue tracker are linked from the project.
