Better Rivulet
Better Rivulet changes how rivers are generated in the world, producing river curves that differ from the vanilla shapes.
What it does
The mod alters river generation on world creation, so the rivers it produces follow different curves than vanilla rivers. It is a world generation and decoration mod, and it ships as a data package, so it works on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with the server-side data pack also available. Better Rivulet is required on the server; a client can join without it. Builds cover 1.19.2 – 1.21.8 across 17 release versions, all under All rights reserved and not open source.
