This datapack converts roughly 80% of vanilla villages into abandoned zombie villages in plains, desert, savanna, snowy, and taiga biomes. It uses only vanilla worldgen template pools, so no mods are required, and it’s fully compatible with servers and modpacks. Perfect for making your worlds feel more dangerous, empty, and post-apocalyptic.

Don’t forget to leave comments about any possible issues with the datapack - it’s important to me!
