Tall Lands
by 0x5F_
Tall Lands changes Minecraft's terrain generation so the world reaches much higher and deeper than usual.
What it does
The mod makes Minecraft's terrain tall. Part of the world generation sampling code divides by 128 before returning a value, and Tall Lands removes that divisor, which the author describes as something like the Farlands. Terrain generates at about the same speed. The author reports that the nether now has holes in its roof and that the End is affected too. Either side can run it alone or both can run it together, and neither needs it. It is released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, and it is not open source. Files target Fabric and NeoForge for 1.21 – 26.2, with 1.0-26.2 as the latest Fabric build, dated 2026-09-09.
Key features
Tall terrain
The world generation sampling no longer divides by 128, so terrain can extend far beyond the normal height limits.
Changed nether and End
Holes appear in the nether roof, and the End is also affected by the altered terrain sampling.
Unusual exploration
The author notes the changes can make the game feel like a very different challenge, and that beating it may be a possible theory.

What the author says
Part of Minecraft's world generation sampling code involves dividing a number by 128 before returning it. All I did was removed this divisor, and the results are very cool. It almost turns Minecraft into a completely different challenge. This mod shouldn't necessarily require a beefier CPU, but I haven't tested. It…
