More Vanilla Biomes

More Vanilla Biomes adds more variety to your environment without overhauling the game. Includes TEN new vanilla-friendly biomes.

Glacial Shield: Where the glacier meets the tundra, this area is icy, rocky, and cold almost year-round. Thick stands of forest are concentrated in patches of soil and around lakes, attracting wildlife.

Badlands: Rocky, dry and desolate, these temperate regions feature little life.

Cloud Forest: Found at the tops of tropical mountains and named for the constant fog. Animals frequently wander up the slopes from the forests below.

Marsh: Marshy terrain with dense plants but few trees. Temperate to cold.

Stormy Savanna: Warm, with poor soil, lots of grass, and few trees. Herds of grazing animals make their home here. This was previously named Grasslands.

Coastal Dunes: Low-lying sandy area with lots of water.

Sandbar: Smooth, flat, sandy islands with little if any vegetation or arable land.

Alpine Meadow: A beautiful area with fertile soil, lots of flowers, and few predators. The summers are mild and bountiful, and the winters are cold and harsh.

Oasis: Desert with groundwater close to the surface, making small lakes that support pockets of thick vegetation. If Realistic Planets is enabled, this will be renamed Dense Oasis.

Ice Floes: Frigid chunks of ice floating on the ocean. Who would want to live here?

This mod is meant to be as widely compatible as possible. Please report any issues.

Other biome mods: Compatible. Includes Alpha Biomes, Advanced Biomes, Archipelagos, Nature's Pretty Sweet, Biomes! Island, and more!

Mods that change world generation should be compatible, but you might see too much or too little of some biomes.

Modded plants and animals must be added via XML patches, as of 1.5.

Recommended

Prepare Landing to help find the biome of your choice Map Reroll if playing on maps without much solid ground. Your choice of gravel visibility mod, especially if playing in Grasslands or Dunes. Some options are Gravel, Where's the Gravel?, and Soil Contrast

Incompatibility

Configurable Maps: Incompatible with sandbars, causes grasslands to have way too much sand, even if you have all vanilla settings. Other biomes work as intended.

Terra Project: Makes extensive changes to world generation that I can't work around.

Please report any other incompatibilities you find.

Thanks to Lucius for adding a bunch of compatibility patches.
