I love hot biomes

by D_Greg_D

I love hot biomes is a world generation mod that changes which biomes appear by tying them to the highest temperature values.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalAll rights reserved1.19 – 26.2

What it does

When a world is generated, the mod makes the temperature noise value pick the hottest biomes, so only those biomes spawn. The biome list is not chosen by hand; it follows from the temperature values Minecraft already produces. The included biomes are badlands variants, savannas, deserts, mangrove swamps and several cave biomes.

The mod also removes some vanilla advancements that cannot be achieved under this setup, and it changes how some advancements are earned. Its files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and as a Data pack for server platforms. Only the server needs it; clients may leave it out. Balanced Diet and Two Two also appear among the settings that the author expects players to consider.

Key features

  1. Hottest biomes only

    Temperature noise is set so that only the hottest biomes generate in a world.

  2. Biome list

    The biomes that spawn include the badlands variants, savannas, deserts, mangrove swamps and several cave biomes.

  3. Advancement changes

    Some vanilla advancements are removed because they cannot be reached with the altered biome spread.

  4. Worldgen datapack support

    The mod works with other worldgen datapacks, except frozen biome packs, and it is not compatible with advancement-changing packs.

What the author says

This datapack changes temperature noise value to the highest so Minecraft generates only hottest biomes. Biomes shown in the list weren't chosen manually, these are the biomes Minecraft generates when temperature is the highest.
