Blue Skies
Players who want two extra dimensions with dungeons, weapons and mobs can add Blue Skies to a Forge or NeoForge survival world.
What it does
Blue Skies adds two dimensions, the Everbright and the Everdawn, each with its own look. The Everbright is bright, snowy and cold, with large beasts and ethereal mobs, while the Everdawn is darker and warmer. Each dimension currently has two dungeons, four in total, and new blocks, weapons and mobs are included. Structure Gel API is required and must be installed alongside the mod.
A villager who lives in plains, mountains and most snowy biomes trades a book for a guide that records what he has learned about the dimensions. Trading emeralds yields a tool that lights the portal frames, and his home holds an unlit frame the tool can activate. Lucent is an optional dependency. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source; its issue tracker is public. Files target 1.16.5 – 1.20.4 across six game versions, and the latest Forge build is for 1.20.1.
