Infinigen
by Sqyro
Infinigen is a Forge world generation mod that adds new structures and biomes, aimed at adding scary dungeons and cinematic biomes to vanilla worlds.
What it does
New biomes and structures generate in the overworld, including a haunted woods biome with a green-tinted fog and green particles drifting through the air. Illusioners appear among the normal mobs that spawn there. Custom trunk placers shape the trees, so the terrain reads differently from vanilla forests.
The mod is designed as a vanilla-friendly addition, so existing worlds keep their terrain while new areas generate alongside it. TerraBlender is required and must be installed for biome placement to work. Infinigen is open source under the MIT License, and its only Forge build targets 1.20.1, with the latest file 1.20.1-1.0.2 dated 2024-08-13. The mod runs on both client and server, so the server and every player need it.

How it compares
Redwood Forest Mod, Mystic Forest and Overworld Revived are also Forge 1.20.1 mods for client and server, but all three are released under All rights reserved and are not open source. Infinigen is open source under the MIT License. Redwood Expansion adds to the redwood theme on the same loader, environment and license terms, while big spruce biome covers spruce forests with the same All rights reserved license and is not open source.
