Better Biomes

Better Biomes adds 66 new biomes and mountain types to Hytale, reworks the caves and fills every zone with small things worth walking over to: cherry groves, a desert city buried under the dunes, forests frozen into ice, floating islands above the Devastated Lands and much more.

Most of it is built from vanilla blocks, so it looks like it belongs in Orbis. On top of that the mod adds 24 flowers, berry bushes, fruit that hangs from trees, new saplings, 15 wood sets and three kinds of brick.

What the mod adds

• New biomes in all four zones and in the oceans, from small spots like the Oasis to large regions like the Dune Sea. See Zones Overview.
• New mountain types with their own shapes, such as Splinter Peaks, Mist Peaks and Rime Ridges. See Mountains.
• Reworked caves: huge halls, winding tunnels, underground lakes and themed caves for every zone, some of them with inhabitants. See Caves.
• Landforms that a height map can't make: waterfalls, rock overhangs, sinkholes, mountain caves, floating islands and oxbow lakes. See Landforms and Features.
• Structures from shrines and camps to castle ruins and a whole buried city, many with loot chests. See Structures.
• Plants, fruit and building blocks to take home. See Plants and Fruit and Building Blocks.
• Atmosphere: own weather, water colors, particles, northern lights and extra animals in many biomes. See Wildlife and Atmosphere.
