The End Update
by nerd1605
The End Update reworks the End dimension with new mobs, ores, wood and stone types, and four additional biomes, all added through Forge on 1.20.1.
What it does
Entering the End feels different with this update, which replaces the vanilla-style layout with a larger set of areas to explore. Seven new mobs, three new ores, two new wood types and several stone types are added, along with structures such as an End castle where good loot can include diamonds, armor trims and Smithing Templates for upgrading Netherite tools.
Four new End biomes are included. Poison Forest has a purple wood type and chestlings that store up to 18 items, Fungus Forest is a calm mushroom area with blue wood, Shadow Meadows has flowers that give Blindness and a stone type obtained by smelting Shadow Shroomlights, and Crystal Desert holds fossils and fragile crystals in rainbow-toned circles. Enderite, a new ore found in the depths of the End, is smelted and forged with diamonds to make an ingot for upgrading Netherite tools. The mod is built as a Forge file for 1.20.1 only, and the author credits the Enderite Mod and Better End as inspiration. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source.
