CubicWorldGen
by niko.sk2x
CubicWorldGen gives Forge worlds customizable generators that are not capped by a height limit, and it runs on top of CubicChunks.
What it does
Two customizable world generators ship in the mod. Both follow the layout of the vanilla customized world type but are organized differently, with a more readable GUI. Each generator lets a world builder set the water level, switch caves, strongholds, ravines and dungeons on or off, and choose which structures generate, including villages, mineshafts, temples, ocean monuments and woodland mansions. Stronghold placement can also use an alternative generator that spreads positions over spheres around the world origin instead of circles, and the radius is adjustable from the GUI.
CubicWorldGen requires CubicChunks to access the generator customization GUI, and it requires MalisisCore. Server owners install it on the server, and clients may leave it out. The mod is open source under the MIT License and is published for Forge only, across three release versions: 1.10.2, 1.11.2 and 1.12.2. The latest file is 1.12.2-0.0.152.0, released on 2021-12-14 on the beta channel. Some biome-specific trees will not generate in the custom generators, and other compatibility issues with CubicChunks still apply.

What the author says
This mod requires CubicChunks, and to access generator customization GUI - also requires MalisisCore. There is no customization GUI for 1.10.2 version. Preset has to be created on newer version. The custom world generators, with a few exceptions (some biome specific trees), won't be able to use any world generation…
