🏜️ 1. New Biomes & Biome Overrides Added
Biome Identifier Biome Name Key Features & Characteristics
custom:mesa_valley Mesa Valleys Custom badlands region containing flat-bottom terraced canyon valleys, multi-layer terracotta walls, dead bushes, cacti, and coarse dirt/clay ground.
custom:desert_ravine_biome Desert Ravine & Sinkhole Zone Arid desert biome override specifically configured to host 0.02% desert ravines and 15-chunk subterranean sinkholes.
custom:overhaul_forest Overhaul Forest Custom forest biome variant designated for forest-only subterranean cave generation networks.
🛠️ 2. Comprehensive List of Additions & Updates
🏜️ Deserts & Mesas:
Valleys in Mesas ONLY: Sweeping canyon valleys (custom:mesa_valley_carver) carved exclusively in mesa and badlands biomes.
Updated Desert Ravines ONLY in Deserts: Deep sandstone/basalt gorges (custom:desert_ravine_carver) with red sandstone, exposed gold/iron ore, lava streams, and sandstone bridges.
Desert Ravine Spawn Rate: Updated to 0.02% chance per chunk (scatter_chance: 2/10000).
15-Chunk Desert Sinkholes: Massive circular collapse crater (custom:desert_sinkhole_feature) spanning 15 chunks in scale with stepped sandstone cliffs, hanging roots, and an underground oasis water pool at the bottom.
Desert Sinkhole Spawn Rate: 0.5% chance per biome (scatter_chance: 1/200).
🌲 Caves & Caverns:
Subterranean Caverns in Taigas, Plains, and Forests: Large open underground chambers (custom:taiga_plains_forest_cavern) with dripstone stalactites/stalagmites, subterranean lakes, mossy boulders, and glow lichen.
Caves ONLY in Forest Types: Standard cave networks (custom:forest_cave_carver and minecraft:overworld_underground_cave_carver_feature override) are restricted strictly to forest biome types (forest, birch, dark_forest, flower_forest). Non-forest biomes no longer generate standard caves.
🌊 Ocean Trenches:
Deepslate Ocean Trenches: Deep underwater rifts (custom:ocean_trench_carver) in deep_ocean biomes extending from the sea floor down to Y: -54 deepslate levels, with magma block hydrothermal vents (generating upward bubble streams), obsidian, and glowing sea lanterns.
🏔️ Mountains & Volcanoes:
Mega Mountains (3–5x Bigger): Towering alpine mountain peaks (custom:mega_mountain_feature) reaching Y: 200+ in mountain biomes (extreme_hills, jagged_peaks, stony_peaks, snowy_slopes). Built with stone, diorite, calcite, powder snow, and blue ice summits.
Mountain Cave Density (2–3x More Caves): Set to iterations: 6 (3x standard cave density) across mountain biomes.
Volcanoes: Basalt lava cones (custom:volcano_feature) built of basalt, blackstone, magma core, obsidian rim, active lava caldera, and cascading lava streams.
Most commonly found in Deserts and Mesas (1/35 chance).
Has a secondary chance (1/75) in mountain biomes where it replaces/overrides mountain peaks.
🌊 Rivers & Surface Waters:
Updated Rivers — Waterfalls: Cascading waterfall step cliffs (custom:river_waterfall_feature) along river channels with water streams, mossy stones, river boulders, fallen oak log bridges, and splash mist (1/18 chance).
Updated Rivers — River Mouth Beaches: Sandy delta shorelines (custom:river_mouth_beach_feature) where rivers meet ocean biomes, featuring sand bars, gravel banks, smooth sandstone ledges, sea grass, sugarcane, and driftwood (1/25 chance).
Natural Ponds: Freshwater pools (custom:natural_pond_feature) added across overworld land biomes (plains, forest, taiga, swamp, jungle, meadow) decorated with lily pads, sea grass, sea pickles, and sugarcane/cattails (1/15 chance).
