Natural Boulders

by weboyee

Natural Boulders is a Fabric world generation mod that adds stone boulders to forests, plains, beaches and other biomes in newly created chunks.

FabricClient and serverMIT License26.2

What it does

Rounded stone outcrops vary in height and width and appear in forest, plain, beach, taiga, jungle, swamp, savanna, meadow and other fitting biome types. Most are built from stone, with smaller patches of andesite, and some contain coal ore or copper ore. Moss carpets cover boulders in the biomes that suit them, and mossy stone appears naturally inside the moss-covered ones.

Boulders only generate in chunks created after the mod is installed, so existing areas of a world remain unchanged. Mossy stone slabs, mossy stone stairs and mossy stone variants can be crafted or cut at a stonecutter. Fabric API is required, and the mod is released under the MIT License, but it is not open source. It runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it, and builds exist only for 26.2.

Key features

  1. Varied boulders

    Boulders come in different shapes and sizes and are placed across many biome types.

  3. Moss-covered boulders

  4. Mossy stone blocks

    Mossy stone slabs, stairs and other variants can be crafted or cut at a stonecutter.
