Customize World Generation Datapack

[shut wyvern]

I have a World generation Datapack and want to Customize it however I have no clue where to start.
My Modifications arent supposed to be that hard tho all I want is:
-Villages to generate more frequently
-Custom Structures that only generate underground generate over ground
-Have the Entire world just be two biomes
-Change the world height, the Generated Underground needs to be much deeper than -64 or if thats not possibile the whole world needs to be lifted up to its Deeper

This may seem simple but worldgen is still the hardest part of datapacking... Especially the biomes will take quite some time. I reccommend reading through our worldgen guide https://www.planetminecraft.com/blog/custom-world-generation-documentation/

Also this for the structure stuff

Well I dont need an Custom Biome I already have them all (from another Datapack that is Public)
I just need it to work like I said above

[frank musk]

yea as I said changing it to only 2 biomes while still keeping a decent balence between them is quite difficult...

[shut wyvern]

ok but I already have the Datapack, cant I just trow out the other Biomes or something?

throw*

[frank musk]

you can but that will disbalence the ratio between the biomes as the game will now have to fill in that empty space with eiter one of the other biomes, making one of the biomes extremely rare

hm

[frank musk]

thats why things like terrablender exist inorder to make it easier to add biomes

[shut wyvern]

whats terrablender

[frank musk]

just a random library mod used by many biome mods

is there no easy way to do this ? I know its the hardest part of datapacking but there has to be some generator or something right? Im kinda in a hurry about this topic thats why

[median trellis]

There are generators for noise, and all things world-gen on misode. The full impact of any change would still be hard to tell. Even if there is some type of visual help from the misode generator like it does have for some noise/biome related settings.

In your case the dimension generator is your best bet.

is there a way I can get a Vanilla datapack like overworld generation normal settings that I can then go into and edit, like when you get a Resourcepack where all the Files are so you know whats vanilla and easier to change

[worldly kelp]

Yes, it's inside the vanilla jar

However that doesn't contain one of the files you need, which is the dimension file that actually lists all the biomes that can appear and at what parameters. Currently the best place to get that is from Snowcapped, which is also probably what you'd use to distribute the two biomes depending on how complex you want the distribution

where do I add this file now

[worldly kelp]

The overworld.json dimension file will go in data/minecraft/dimension
