Block Factory's Biomes
Block Factory's Biomes is a world generation mod that adds five new biomes to Forge and NeoForge worlds for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, each with its own animals, plants and blocks.
What it does
Each of the five biomes has its own palette, landscape and mood, and carries wildlife and vegetation of its own. New animals roam the land and new trees, plants and flowers can be found, harvested and used in building. Custom blocks are tied to specific biomes, so decorating and collecting in them uses materials that are not found elsewhere. The biomes are generated through custom world generation and are meant to fit the terrain of existing worlds, so the new regions blend into the natural layout instead of sitting apart from it.
The additions follow Minecraft's art style and keep the base game's feel: the mod adds more variety and detail to exploration while leaving vanilla content intact. Players who explore new worlds or existing ones will find new areas over each hill. Installation is done with Forge or NeoForge alone, with no other dependency listed. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files are published for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, with 1.0.5 for 1.20.1 as the latest Forge file and 1.1.0 for 1.21.1 as the latest NeoForge file. The code is under All rights reserved and is not open source.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Players who want more variety in world exploration while keeping the base game's style. Server owners can add the biomes to a multiplayer world, since the mod must run on the server and on each player's client.
How it compares
Biome2 is a server-side only option with Forge and NeoForge files for 1.20.1 – 1.21.4 under the Apache License 2.0, so players can join without installing it. Wild Lands is a client and server mod for Forge and NeoForge covering 1.19.2 – 1.20.1 under All rights reserved, so it does not reach 1.21.1.
