The Great Outdoors
by Marioz170
The Great Outdoors adds a Grand Geyser Field biome to the world, along with mobs, plants, decorations and a new wood set, and it requires Geckolib.
What it does
Generation places the Grand Geyser Field biome, which gathers geothermal features such as geysers, hot springs and mud pots alongside Whitebark Pine trees, flowers and a wider range of wildlife. Animals are added mostly for this biome, though some also spawn in other parts of the world. Visitor's Center and Observation Tower structures appear across several biomes.
The mod is for players who want biomes with their own character and a few educational touches about animals and plants in their area. Its content is limited to one biome for now, and the author has said more may follow. Installation needs Geckolib on both sides, and the mod is published for Forge and NeoForge, with files for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1. The license is All rights reserved, so the code is not open source.
