Modern Beta Forge

A port of Modern Beta Fabric for Forge 1.12.2! ---------------------------------------------- Enjoy all the toggle-able features of Minecraft 1.12.2 with the faithful re-implementation of the Beta, Alpha, Infdev, and Indev terrain generators. Originally done for a friend's server but now expanded on to match the original Fabric version in feature parity plus additional improvements/fixes. Please don't expect updates beyond bugfixes and minor improvements if I feel like it. ### Features * Terrain generators: * Beta 1.7.3 * Alpha 1.1.2\_01 * Infdev 20100611 * Infdev 20100420 * Infdev 20100415 * Infdev 20100227 * Indev 20100223 * Classic 0.0.23a * Beta Skylands * Pocket Edition v0.6.0 * Release (Vanilla) 1.12.2 * The End * Biome generators: * Beta 1.7.3 * Pocket Edition v0.6.0 (with Beta biomes) * Single/Fixed * Release (Vanilla) 1.12.2 with biome mod support * Biomes O' Plenty (when Biomes O' Plenty mod is installed) * Mix and match terrain and biome generators. * Classic Nether terrain generation. * Options to substitute Beta biomes with other vanilla or mod biomes for the Beta biome generator. * In-game world generation customization, based on the vanilla Customized world type. * Shareable and built-in world generation presets, like with the vanilla Customized world type. * Toggleable modern structures and decoration features. * Accurate Beta sky and Beta biome colors when playing in SP. Optional in MP. * Adjustable cloud height for Modern Beta worlds, y108 by default. * Modified player spawns that place players on beaches like in classic versions. * In-game terrain/biome generation previewer before world creation. * Commands for inspecting and editing generator settings in-game. * Support for extended height limits when using Depths Update or Cubic Chunks. ### Server Usage The following should be done in the server.properties file: * Set the 'levelType' field to 'modernbeta' (or 'modernbetacubic' if using Cubic Chunks), without the quotes. * Set generation options in the 'generator-settings' field. You can create the generator options string using the in-game GUI. ### Mod Support Additional support is provided for these mods: * Biomes O' Plenty * Buildcraft Energy * Cubic Chunks - Supported for height extension. * Depths Update - Supported for height extension. * Dynamic Trees * Future MC * Millénaire - Download config files [here](https://github.com/b3spectacled/modernbetaforge-support/tree/main) * Oceanic Expanse * Thaumcraft * Yung's Better Mineshafts These mods are known to cause issues: * Galacticraft - Sky/Fog visual features will be disabled when this is installed. * Muon - This mod is incompatible. * Cave Generator - If you are experiencing tick/entity lag, please disable all biome replacement options to improve performance. ### Add-ons Modern Beta supports custom add-ons. Here are a few: * [Modern Beta Forge Release Plus](https://modrinth.com/mod/modern-beta-release-plus) - Adds biome generators from late Beta to early Release versions of Minecraft. * [Modern Beta Forge Islands](https://modrinth.com/mod/modern-beta-forge-islands) - Adds island generation for several terrain generators. * [Modern Beta Forge Rivers](https://modrinth.com/mod/modern-beta-forge-rivers) - Adds river generation for several terrain generators. * [Modern Beta Forge Voronoi Climates](https://modrinth.com/mod/modern-beta-forge-voronoi-climates) - Adds biome generation with customizable biome maps and a visual editor. Other recommended mods: * [Smooth Menus](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/smooth-menus) - Increases frame rate for in-game menus, including the customization GUIs. * Celeritas ### Preset Note For accurate generation for non-Beta chunk sources, please select from the built-in presets first; simply changing the chunk source will not accordingly update the needed noise settings. ### Why no Forge version for current versions of Minecraft? I have no plans on working on current versions of Minecraft at the moment. Please take a look at [Moderner Beta](https://modrinth.com/mod/moderner-beta) for an alternative! ### Credits Thanks to mrburgerUS, SuperCoder7979, Arenovas, Amb0s, PaulEvs, comp500, and the folks behind RetroMCP.
