A port of Modern Beta Fabric for Forge 1.12.2!
Enjoy all the toggle-able features of Minecraft 1.12.2 with the faithful re-implementation of the Beta, Alpha, Infdev, and Indev terrain generators. Originally done for a friend's server but now expanded on to match the original Fabric version in feature parity plus additional improvements/fixes. Please don't expect updates beyond bugfixes and minor improvements if I feel like it.

Preset Note
For accurate generation for non-Beta chunk sources, please select from the built-in presets first; simply changing the chunk source will not accordingly update the needed noise settings.
Why no Forge version for current versions of Minecraft?
I have no plans on working on current versions of Minecraft at the moment. Please take a look at Moderner Beta for an alternative!
