Deeper Oceans

by Apollo

Deeper Oceans makes the ocean floor twice as deep as vanilla, and lowers ocean monuments so their legs sit less awkwardly in the deeper water.

What it does

Oceans generated by the mod reach roughly twice the depth of vanilla oceans. Vanilla ocean monuments are placed 20 blocks lower to keep their legs from looking out of place. A config file controls the ocean depth and the monument offset.

The mod is server required and client optional, because world generation happens on the server. Files exist for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and the Data pack option works on a server platform. Fabric API and Lithostitched are required dependencies. Builds cover 1.18.2 – 26.2, and the code is under the MIT License and is open source.

Key features

  1. Doubled ocean depth

    Oceans are generated about twice as deep as in vanilla, which changes the terrain players explore underwater.

  2. Lowered ocean monuments

    Ocean monuments sit 20 blocks lower, so their structure blends into the deeper water.

  3. Config options

    A config file lets server owners change the ocean depth and the ocean monument offset.

Questions

Does Deeper Oceans need Lithostitched?

Yes. Lithostitched is a required dependency, alongside Fabric API.

Can Deeper Oceans be combined with mods that already deepen oceans?

No. Some ocean-deepening mods are not compatible with it, because both change the same terrain.

What the author says

Deeper Oceans is a project that makes oceans twice as deep as vanilla. Mod Exclusive: Vanilla ocean monuments are lowered 20 blocks to prevent the legs of the monument looking too out-of-place. There's also a config file for changing the ocean's depth and the ocean monument offset.
