Description

This mod uses the method in "Large Scale Terrain Generation from Tectonic Uplift and Fluvial Erosion" to create a continent every 4096 block.
This description is for ShanHe mod at version 1.16.5

How to use

Download corresponded version of MC and this mod, put it in your mod folder, choose world type "shanhe" or "generator.shanhe.shchunkgennoise" when creating a new world.

You may need to wait for 4 min to create a world, and every time you traveled to x or z coordinates near mutiple of 4096 you game may stucked for a minute.

Feature

River network, V and U shaped valley, Mountain range and plains, streams with height difference.

Caution

There may be problems when playing in survival mode, some structures will be really rare. You can't get Biome achievements.

This mod is in very early developing stage. Many problems exists in the mod such as village and structures may generate several blocks above or below ground.

I only added 27 land biomes and all 10 ocean biomes in 1.16 now, land biomes will be complete in future. No mushroom island, no ice spikes now

Playing this mod with distant horizon's distant generation may crash your game.

Untested compatibility, it should not be compatible with any mod that modified terrain generation or biomes, but should be compatible with mod ores and trees, or datapack ores and trees, like Dynamic Trees and copper ores in Create. Untested in multiplayer.
Chunky could work.

In the future

Improve river depth and mountain shape. Adjust biome noise, Add more vanilla biomes,fix the problems in structure generation Support higher versions of MC and generate greater mountains.
