THE HORRORS BUT BETTER
by zolmaster
The Horrors But Better, by zolmaster, brings four new biomes, extra blocks and a de-radioactivator crafting table to NeoForge worlds on 1.21.8.
What it does
Four new biomes come with the content, along with additional blocks and crafting tables such as a de-radioactivator. An improved smelter fabricator is included, and it adds more mobs to the game. Players who trigger the start NUCLEAR WARNING event begin the horror storyline the mod is built around.
The mod is distributed for NeoForge only, in 1.0.3 for 1.21.8, published 2026-06-09. Client and server both need it, so every player on a server that runs it must install it too. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
