Regions Unexplored: Expansion
by Ghost
Regions Unexplored: Expansion reshapes vanilla biomes so they match the look of the Regions Unexplored biomes, on servers where that mod is installed.
What it does
Vanilla biomes are remodeled to resemble the biomes that Regions Unexplored adds, so generated terrain looks closer to that mod's style. Regions Unexplored is required and must be present on the server. Only the server needs this mod, and players join without installing it. The mod is released under the MIT License and is not open source. Files exist for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, with 1.0.1 as the latest build for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, published 2025-08-13.
