BetterEnd: New Dawn
by Raijin2312
With New Dawn installed, the End gains new biomes, reworked islands and extra content, maintained as an independent continuation for modern versions.
What it does
The mod carries the content of the latest releases to each supported Minecraft version, adding bug fixes, compatibility work and loader-specific adjustments on Fabric and NeoForge. The End world generator is extended, so islands can take different shapes, terrain and heights, and caves inside them hold unique resources.
BCLib: New Dawn, WorldWeaver: New Dawn and WunderLib: New Dawn are required and must be installed alongside it. Both the client and the server need the mod. Files are published for Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt across the game versions 1.21 – 26.3, and the project is open source under the MIT License.
Three other mods depend on it: Farmer's Cutting: BetterEnd, Dungeon Train: A Lore-Rich Roguelite RPG Adventure and Dynamic Trees - BetterEnd. The original artwork and most of the original code belong to Paulev, the contributors and the BetterX Team.
