PIONEER

Pioneer is an expansive biome and world generation mod aimed at complementing the vanilla biomes by keeping it simple and not straying too far from the vanilla style. It comes with my take on several popular trees such as firs and redwoods.

The contents of the mod is split off from Project: Vibrant Journeys and will continue to be developed as a separate mod from 1.18.2 onwards.
