Return of the Void Fog
by kiwiKcz
Return of the Void Fog brings back the classic Void Fog effect, a hidden underground biome that players reach by descending past layer -50.
What it does
The datapack reintroduces the Void Fog as a biome found between layers -50 and -64, where a dense, creeping fog blurs vision in the deepest parts of the world. It recreates the dark, misty atmosphere of early Minecraft exploration, using a visual effect the modern game no longer includes. Installing it requires a loader with datapack support, and the server needs it for the biome to generate. Players join without installing anything, because only the server side is required. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 16 release versions, 1.21 – 26.2, and the code is under All rights reserved.
