Server-side mod for precise biome control

Overview

Biome Replacer lets you control biome distribution without changing terrain generation. Replace any biome with another while preserving the landscape's shape and only changing biome-specific features like colors, mob spawns, and vegetation.

Use Cases:

  • Remove unwanted biomes
  • Fix mod compatibility issues
  • Enhance almost-perfect world seeds
  • Create custom world experiences
  • Complement worldgen mods like Terralith

Features

  • Simple Biome Swapping: Replace biomes with an easy rule system
  • Tag Support: Replace entire biome categories at once
  • Server-Side: No client installation needed
  • Easy Config: Simple properties file with intuitive syntax

Experimental Features

  • Chance based replacement: Replace any percentage of a biome

Compatibility

  • Works With: Vanilla biomes and most datapack biomes (including Terralith)
  • Limited Support: TerraBlender, Biolith or Lithosphere biomes (use their native options instead)
  • Generally Compatible: Works with most worldgen mods (report issues here)
