Description

Betterlands.

Who says bad can't be better? Definitely not this mod! Betterlands is a biome mod that adds new features centered around the badlands, making it a more scenic and survivable place to be in.

 

FEATURE HIGHLIGHTS

Juniper Tree

Meet the new type of tree exclusively found in the Badlands! They are commonly found growing on red sand, but you can also occasionally come across ones growing on top of plateaus, in which case there will be a cluster of red sand below them. They offer a wood source of the same name and are the sole source of juniper berries, a brand new food item.

Fossil Rocks

These are ore-like blocks that drop bone- and other fossil-related items when mined. They are commonly found in the badlands & eroded badlands biomes (especially in mesas and plateaus), and they don't generate where there's air, water, or lava directly above them.

Decorative Terracotta Blocks

Terracotta Bricks. These are new types of bricks, great for spicing up your builds! They come in block, stair, slab, and wall variants.

All terracotta bricks

Terracota Pavement. Great for building pathways! They also come in stairs and slabs that allow for more building options. They provide a slight speed boost to mobs walking on top of them.All terracotta pavements

 

Bighorn Sheep

These mammals spawn on top of Wooded Badlands Plateaus and will be the main source of meat in the Badlands. They drop bighorn meat which can be cooked and restores the same hunger & saturation points as beef. Their other drops are bighorn hide (craftable into bighorn hide armor) and large horn (craftable into horned cap). They can be bred with wilting bushes, which are plants found on both Badlands and Wooded Badlands Plateaus. Be careful when hunting bighorns, they are easily provoked when hurt and they pack quite a punch!

Bighorn Hide Armor

Give yourself a little bit of protection from the harmful elements of the badlands by equipping a set of armor crafted from bighorn hide! These are only on the same level as leather armor so that means they share the same defense points & durability, but they should suffice for the most part before you could find or craft better armor.

CREDITS

  • This mod was a li'l inspired by two really good, already existing badlands-themed mod, Better Badlands and Better Badlands (yup, they have the same name XD, but they're actually two entirely different mods adding different content also relating to badlands; the first one is for 1.12 and the second is for 1.16)
  • Proudly made with MCreator. Thanks to it for making this mod idea possible, easier, and quicker to achieve! And worry not, I will also try my very best to make this mod as well-polished as possible even in using a mod generator, and perhaps I'll eventually move to Java coding in the future once I get the hang of it <3
