Making a rare custom cold biome
Tue, 03/24/2026 - 17:32 (edited)

Hi,

i have a problem with creating a custom biom,

I want to make a hot spring biome for my mod but i tried every setting and i can't get it right.

i want the biom to be rare and small (around 6x6 chunks),

i it needs to spawn around cold bioms (snowy plains).

The tarrain should be a more hilly plains,

and i don't want it to spawn underground with was a acuring problem

Could someone give me the biom settings or tell me how thay work to achieve whis result?

 

also, im using the forge 1.20.1 generator if that helps.

Try using misode, you can see how your biome will spawn within a dimension along with the vanilla ones. Copy paste the default dimension.json into the code editor and add in your biome within the biome list. You can then amend the values on it and then when you reach your desired outcome replicate them over to mcreator.
