Streams
by delvr
Streams generates real flowing rivers in new worlds, with current that carries water down the terrain until it reaches the sea.
What it does
Rivers start from several sources high on the terrain and run down through slopes, where they can drop as waterfalls and join into wider channels. The flow uses custom non-decaying flowing blocks, so a river keeps moving instead of drying out. Streams needs Farseek, which must be installed alongside it on Forge or NeoForge. Files cover 1.12 – 26.2, with 0.4.9 for 1.12.2 and 1.0.0-beta.0 for 26.2 as the latest builds.
Key features
Multiple river sources
Rivers originate from several sources and merge as they flow down the terrain.
Waterfalls and slopes
Water drops over steep ground in waterfalls, and channels join into wider rivers along the way.
Buckets for flowing water
Players can collect the flowing water in buckets and carry it elsewhere.

This mod introduces real flowing rivers, with a true current, to Minecraft. These rivers are generated in the world using custom non-decaying flowing blocks and are much larger than anything the player could create using buckets. They originate in multiple sources and flow down the terrain through slopes and…
