Unseen's Nether Backport
ATTENTION: NETHER-API IS REQUIRED FOR THE MOD TO FUNCTION. PACK DEVELOPERS, USE FILE DIRECTOR TO GET IT FROM MODRINTH!
This mod brings all Nether content from version 1.16 to Minecraft 1.12.2! Currently, most elements are implemented, with only some minor details remaining, such as specific AI tasks and other minor aspects that haven't been added yet.
It's worth noting that the mod is in early development. While core functions work correctly, multiplayer testing hasn't been conducted yet, so we welcome feedback about potential issues in network play.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will you port this mod to versions above 1.12.2, for example: 1.13, 1.15.2?
A: No.
Q: Will this mod receive additional updates/additions?
A: I won't promise anything, but after everything is polished, I think the only thing I considered was ruins or other minor things to add more content to the biomes, but that's it. If you're looking for more Nether content, you can check out the new Nether boss added to (Unofficial)BOMD + DA.
Q: Was this mod created with McCreator?
A: Never.
