by wonderful_Ai_Chen

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.

Key features

  1. Original better rivers

    Adds an original version of better rivers to the generated terrain, changing the look of waterways in new worlds.

  2. Curved river generation

    Generates river curves with a different shape from vanilla, so waterways wind in new patterns.

  3. Data pack distribution

    Also available as a data pack for servers that prefer not to install a loader mod.
