Dry Deserts

Dry Deserts modification completely eliminates river generation in desert biomes and badlands, creating a truly arid atmosphere. In these zones, you will no longer encounter river flows, making deserts more authentic and true to their nature.

Although individual water bodies may still be found, especially in coastal areas and near aquifers, river biomes in deserts are completely absent.

Compatibility

The mod is compatible with most modifications that add new biomes or change the world. Problems may only occur with mods that radically change river generation mechanics. If you discover incompatibility or want to add support for a specific mod pack, report it through the issue tracking system.

Configuration (Datapack only)

When using the "Large Biomes" preset, the datapack will be active, but for proper operation, changes need to be made to the file Dry-Deserts/data/minecraft/worldgen/desity_functions/overworld/ridges.json. The file contains detailed setup instructions.

By default, rivers are completely absent in deserts, but you can change this behavior. The README.md file describes configuration options that partially allow river generation. To check changes, you can use special cartography tools.
