Current status:
- Mojang decided to break their community's trust by completely breaking private multiplayer with their chat report feature in 1.19.1. I will not be updating the pack for versions past 1.19 until Mojang fix their mess.
DWAEBH 1.8 for Minecraft 1.19 and 1.18.2!
Available in either expanded height or vanilla height
Description
This data pack expands the world height from 384 to 640 blocks (-128 to 512), adds custom caves for multiple biomes, custom vanilla-style structures and various tweaks to generation and vegetation in general.
DWAEBH 1.6, the final DWAEBH update for Minecraft 1.17, also increases the maximum mountain height to about y 230, makes rivers wider/deeper and adds Lush and Dripstone Caves.
Compatibility
- Supported Minecraft versions are listed for each DWAEBH release in the files section.
It is recommended to backup worlds before installing and updating the pack. If you upgrade your old world, use the Vanilla Height version.
Installation
Install like any data pack. Use the vanilla height version if you don't want expanded world height or if you're upgrading from a world with the vanilla world height.
Features
Increased world height
- The standard version of DWAEBH increases the world height to min Y: -128 and max Y: 512. This requires a new world, however. If it's your first time using DWAEBH and you want to use DWAEBH on a world, download the vanilla height version (1.7 and later)
