Realistic Oceans
by LLD-000
Realistic Oceans reshapes ocean generation in the world, with deep trenches, ocean ridges and dead zones that follow ecological patterns.
What it does
Realistic Oceans is a world generation setting that adds deep oceans with trenches and ocean ridges, shaped to resemble real seabeds. Some areas are dead zones reaching up to 1500 blocks deep. Because the mod changes how terrain generates, it applies to new chunks of a world. Only the server needs it, so players join without installing anything. The mod is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, covering 1.20.1 and 1.21.11, and is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Deep ocean trenches
Generated oceans include trenches and ocean ridges, giving the seabed varied depth instead of a flat floor.
Ecological dead zones
Dead zones reach up to 1500 blocks deep, placed to follow an ecological pattern in the ocean.
Realistic ocean layout
The generation setting aims for an ocean layout that resembles real deep seas rather than standard vanilla basins.
