Floating Island Revived
by mika-f
Worlds made with Floating Island Revived can generate sky islands as their terrain, once the mod is installed on Fabric or Forge.
What it does
Worlds created with the mod can use a Floating Island world type, which places floating islands in the sky as the terrain. The feature is added through world chunk generation, so new worlds get the islands without any command or extra setup. Fabric API must be installed alongside it on Fabric.
The mod is published for Fabric and Forge across 8 release versions, 1.12.2 – 1.21.8. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. The code is under the MIT License and is open source, and the public source code and issue tracker are linked from the project. Files for 1.21.8 were last updated on 2025-08-27.
Key features
Floating island world type
Creating a world lets players pick the Floating Island world type, which fills the sky with floating islands.
Chunk generation
The islands are produced by adding new chunk generation to the world, rather than by placing structures later.
Fabric and Forge builds
Separate builds cover Fabric for the 1.19 – 1.21 line and Forge for the 1.12 line, each with its own file.
Earlier code reused
The generator reuses code from an earlier mod by the same author, adjusted to work with current versions.
