Cinderscapes Reforged
Port of Cinderscapes to forge
About this Mod

This version of Cinderscapes is a port for the Forge mod loader. You can find the Fabric version at Cinderscapes.
This is in no way related to the Terraformers team or any of their memebers, they are listed as former authors only to pay proper credits to them for the code I did not write myself and other assets. Please bring any issues that you encounter with this to MY github, NOT THEIRS.
Now here's a modified version of the description on the original page:
Cinderscapes is a beautiful, yet frightening biomes mod for Minecraft 1.16 and above running on the Fabric mod loader. Cinderscapes enchances the default minecraft experience by adding 6 new rich and detailed nether biomes following in the same style as those already in the vanilla game. In addition to new biomes Cinderscapes adds some new unique types of building blocks further expanding your building capabilities.
Cinderscapes Reforged requires Terraformed Api Reforged and Fabric's Biome API Reforged
Check out my Discord Server to chat about Cinderscapes and other Reforged mods!
The two central tenants of the Cinderscapes project are refinement and simplicity, so in order to uphold those central values, the few biomes that Cinderscapes does add have gone through rigorous polishing, detailing, and refining to make sure all additions are up to the community's standards. Focus has been placed on depth rather than breadth and we hope that it clearly shows. Overall we hope this will result in a more cohesive experience compared to existing biome mods.
Biomes:
- Ashy Shoals
- Blackstone Shales
- Luminous Grove
- Quartz Canyon
Images of the biomes can be found on the Images page.

Terrestria Reforged and Traverse Reforged(Tbd, traverse reforged currently does not work my my biome api mod, it's not my mod so it doesn't yet use my api) work well with Cinderscapes if you wish to expand your overall biome experience in the Overworld as well.
