by Aecht_Rob

Carboniferous Dimension is a Forge world generation addon for Prehistoric Nature that adds a dimension with a Carboniferous-era landscape.

ForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.12.2

What it does

Players reach the Carboniferous Dimension as a separate world area, where terrain and plant life follow the Carboniferous period. The dimension depends on Prehistoric Nature, MixinBooter and Roughly Enough IDs, so all three need to be installed alongside it. Version 3.0 and later require Roughly Enough IDs specifically.

The server and every player need the mod installed. Files are published for Forge and 1.12.2 only, with 6.0 as the latest build from 2025-12-04. The mod is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
