About this Mod
Kap's Terrain Overhaul [Alpha]
A NeoForge 1.21.1 Project
Welcome to Kap's Terrain Overhaul! This project is my first venture into modding, designed to push Minecraft’s world generation to its absolute limits. If you’ve ever felt that the sky was too low and villages were too lonely, this mod is for you.
⚠️ Alpha Disclaimer
This mod is currently in Alpha. As I am a new modder, please expect some "experimental charm." You may occasionally encounter:
🏝️ Floating Islands: Blocks that didn't quite get the memo about gravity.
🏘️ Village Quirks: Villagers might pick some... interesting places to live.
⚔️ Overlapping Structures: Two buildings might try to occupy the same space.
🌀 Messy Terrain: While rare, you might find some jagged or broken world-gen.
🌟 Key Features
The 8,000-Block Ceiling: Shatter the standard height limits. This mod adjusts world parameters to allow for a massive 8,000-block height limit, giving you enough room to build a space elevator.
Abundant Life: I haven’t changed how villages look, but I’ve made them less rare. You’ll find settlements much more frequently across the massive new landscape.
Epic Scale: Terrain is overhauled to feel more expansive and grand, taking full advantage of the new vertical space.
🛠️ Recommended Add-ons
To get the best experience and ensure everything runs smoothly at these extreme heights, I highly recommend installing these alongside Kap's:
Distant Horizons: Essential for seeing those 8,000-block peaks from a distance without killing your FPS.
FerriteCore / Sodium (Rubidium/Embeddium): Crucial for memory and rendering optimization.
