Amplified Nether
The nether explorer's simple dream: doubled height and amplified terrain. What more is needed?
About this Mod
Amplified Nether
Amplified Nether increases the Nether height to 256 blocks tall, truly ushering in the "Amplified" feel.
Notes
- Amplified Nether is not compatable with Incendium, but often compatable with other nether mods, such as Better Nether
- Do not add this to an existing nether - reset yours first, or use a new world
Description
Amplified Nether uses the new 1.18 features to create brand new terrain in the Nether, with 3D biomes and tons of new terrain types. This datapack holds its charm by adding no new biomes, items, mobs, structures, etc... a simple datapack to just make the vanilla Nether better.
Additionally, Amplified Nether brings back the Nether mountains from the original official Minecraft Nether Update trailer. Many players saw these beautiful mountains, and were upset that they weren't in the game. 3D biomes are used extensively, with much more biome variation. Biome borders that were previously impossible are now commonplace, as any biome can border any other biome!
