Description
What are The Winterlands?
The Winterlands features worlds covered by a perpetual winterstorm, composed only of biomes with snowy forests, glaciers, and jagged ice formations.
This modpack is part of the Biome Palettes series, a collection designed to change the atmosphere of Minecraft through a defined aesthetic and thematic "palette" of biomes. Using the Biome Replacer mod, this pack takes hundreds of biomes from popular world-gen mods and uses only a careful selection of them to create a coherent and immersive world.
The pack is ideal for temperature survival challenges, winter apocalypse worlds, or christmas themed playthroughs. I don't want to add a whole ton of mods to the pack and it's intentionally lightweight so anyone can integrate any other mods they'd consider fitting to their adventure. Still I'll probably make an alternate version with my preferred and more curated set of mods.
This modpack is meant to be played with my Resourcepack:
Winter Waters & Snowy Skies
Biome Palette for The Winterlands
The inspiration for this pack are the classic 'Winter Apocalypse' survival challenges, reimagined to create a world that consists of only cold biomes coming from several popular worldgen mods. The landscape consists of mainly snow-covered forests, broken up by desolate ice wastelands.
➤ Many of the biomes have deep powder snow that can easily trap you.
➤ Underground you will only find frosted cave biomes from Yung's Cave Biomes.
➤ Keep an eye out for the ice on frozen rivers and oceans, you might find resources buried within the ice.
The following are the worldgen mods used in the pack and below the respective biomes that have been selected to create the world.

Any suggestion, feedback or new ideas are welcomed. There are almost 500 biomes in total so it's entirely possible I've missed some or replaced cave or nether biomes I shouldn't have, If you stumble upon a biome that feels out of place, please let me know.
