Woodlands:Extra
by Darsenia
Players who explore the overworld will find Woodlands:Extra reshaping most vanilla biomes and adding 42 new ones, all built from vanilla blocks.
What it does
Most changes to existing biomes add taller, more natural-looking vegetation and scenery. The added biomes are slotted in among the vanilla ones, while snowy and hot zones keep close to their vanilla placement, so players can still find each of them without much searching.
Seasonal behavior follows Serene Seasons, which must be installed for it to apply. Biomes that are already brightly colored or icy are excluded or limited to a slight seasonal color change, while the rest change colors as usual. Oh The Trees You'll Grow is required and supplies the tree structures. Fabric API is needed on Fabric. Both the server and every player need the mod, and it is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge with files for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, under All rights reserved. It is not open source.
Key features
42 new biomes
The mod adds 42 biomes built only from vanilla blocks, extending the overworld without custom block types.
Reworked vanilla biomes
Most existing biomes gain new trees, boulders, flowers and ground cover that look more natural.
Restructured biome placement
Biome distribution is rearranged around the new biomes, while snowy and hot zones keep their vanilla spread.
Seasonal color tags
Each biome carries Serene Seasons tags, with some biomes excluded or limited to slight color change so they keep their character.
