Modern Beta [Fabric]

Description

[This mod is now retired, please see BlueStaggo's Moderner Beta! Thanks for your support!]

A Modern Beta for Modern Minecraft!

Fabric API is required!

Welcome to Modern Beta!  Modern Beta was born out of the desire to see classic old world generation in modern Minecraft, with modern features and generation. This mod re-implements the Beta, Alpha, Infdev, and Indev terrain generators for a nearly block-for-block perfect recreation.

Comments, feedback, suggestions are welcome!  See the FAQ section below if you have a question that may have already been answered.
