ChoiceTheorem's Overhauled Village
Villages and pillager outposts generated by ChoiceTheorem's Overhauled Village gain new layouts, with 23 village variants and 14 outpost variants fitted to each world's terrain, theme and biome.
What it does
Players who explore a world generated with this mod find villages and pillager outposts reshaped to suit the local land and biome. Each structure is tailored to the theme of the surrounding world, and the mod offers a set of village designs alongside a set of outpost designs. Structures are located with the /locate structure command, using the ctov namespace and the structure name from the list.
Lithostitched is required, so it must be installed alongside the mod. Server owners install it, and players connect with no copy of their own. The mod is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with the latest Fabric and NeoForge files built for 26.2 and the latest Quilt file for 1.20.4. Snapshot builds are published, and the code is covered by the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial No Derivatives 4.0 license, so the project is not open source.
The mod is not backported to older game versions than its main line supports, so older releases cannot use it. Several compatibility packs exist for mods that add new villagers, and the author's other structure packs work alongside it.
