TFC: Real World

Terrain follows real geography: mountains such as the Andes and Alps rise where tectonic plates collide, rift valleys open where plates pull apart, and volcanoes appear in places like Iceland and the Ring of Fire. Climates follow the same map, from jungles of the Congo through savannas, the Gobi and Siberian taiga to the ice of Antarctica, and the seasons follow TFC's own system. Players can start at a chosen latitude and longitude, such as a home town, a foot of Kilimanjaro or a Caribbean island, and begin survival there.

The mod also lets a player draw or load a custom map and turn it into a playable planet, at any scale from a single island to a full continental set. Its default world size is set at 80,000 by 40,000 blocks, which can be made larger or smaller. Because the generator is tied to TerraFirmaCraft, the planet is played with TFC's survival systems from the first block.

Installation needs TerraFirmaCraft, which is a required dependency. Auroras and Firma: Civilization are optional. TFC: Real World runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge across three release versions, 1.18.2 – 1.21.1, and the mod is released under the MIT License but is not open source.
