ForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.12.2

What it does

The mod is an add-on for Prehistoric Nature and cannot run without it. Its dimension holds Devonian-period landscapes populated by the content of the main mod. Installation also needs MixinBooter and Roughly Enough IDs, and Roughly Enough IDs is required from version 2.02 onward. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. It is published only for Forge 1.12.2, with the latest file being 4.01 from 2025-12-31, and is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.

Key features

  1. Devonian dimension

    A separate dimension recreates the Devonian period, reached as part of the Prehistoric Nature content.

  2. Generated landscapes

    World generation builds the dimension's terrain and biomes when a new area is explored.

  3. Prehistoric Nature integration

    The dimension is built around the creatures and items of the main Prehistoric Nature mod.
