Larger Pale Gardens
!!!IMPORTANT: This datapack is incompatible with other datapacks that modify biome distribution or add new biomes to the Overworld. However, mods and datapacks that only change features of vanilla biomes should remain compatible.
In the base version of Minecraft, the Pale Gardens biome can only generate in place of Dark Forests on plateaus or high elevations during world creation. This often results in players encountering these biomes very rarely or finding them disappointingly small. Our datapack fixes this issue — now Pale Gardens can generate in place of any Dark Forest biome during world generation. This makes them significantly more common and allows them to cover much larger areas.
Additionally, Pale Gardens can now border water bodies at sea level, which aligns with the original concept shown at Minecraft Live 2024.
Note for developers: This datapack was created using Jacobsjo's Snowcapped tool — an excellent solution for working with Minecraft biomes and world features.
