Complete with a custom 3D holographic rendering engine, this mod gives you total control and visibility over your environment&#8217;s biome data.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/w-gV5AHoTBE\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>\u2728 Key Features<\/p>\n<p>The Biome Extractor Enchantment: Enchant your tools to harvest biome data! Breaking a block with an enchanted tool will store the exact biome data of that location directly into the dropped item.<\/p>\n<p>Smart Tooltips: Hover over any extracted block in your inventory to see a color-coded tooltip displaying its stored biome data (e.g., Stored Biome: minecraft:jungle).<\/p>\n<p>Transplant Your World: Place an extracted block back down anywhere in the world to permanently overwrite that chunk&#8217;s biome data with the stored biome.<\/p>\n<p>The 3D Biome Matrix: Press B (configurable) to toggle a custom 3D holographic grid. This matrix highlights the exact biome cell you are standing in with a thick neon outline, and draws the surrounding cells with faded lines so you can accurately plan your terraforming.<\/p>\n<p>Three transplant sizes: Press V (configurable) to cycle through the small(4x4x4), medium(12x12x12), and large(20x20x12) sizes. Allowing you to convert a larger area before making smaller adjustments around the edges.<\/p>\n<p>\u26a0\ufe0f Technical Mechanics (How Biomes Actually Work)<\/p>\n<p>Minecraft handles biome data in a very specific, mathematical way. When using this mod, you will notice two unique mechanics that are hardcoded into the base game:<\/p>\n<p>The 4x4x4 Limitation<\/p>\n<p>Minecraft does not store biome data block-by-block. Instead, the world is divided into a strict grid of 4x4x4 chunks. When you place a block with stored biome data, you are updating the entire 4x4x4 chunk that the block was placed inside. (Use the B keybind to see exactly where these chunk borders lie!)<\/p>\n<p>Seeded Spatial Jitter<\/p>\n<p>If you place a new biome and notice the visual border looks jagged and organic instead of perfectly matching the 4x4x4 grid, this is not a bug!<br \/>\nTo prevent biomes from looking like ugly checkerboards, Minecraft&#8217;s rendering engine applies a &#8220;Spatial Jitter.&#8221; It uses the world&#8217;s random seed to scramble the coordinates by 1-2 blocks in every direction before applying the biome color. The 3D matrix shows the true data, but the game will always visually scramble the edges to make it look natural.<\/p>\n<p>Biome Blend<\/p>\n<p>Your in-game &#8220;Biome Blend&#8221; video setting determines how smoothly these jagged borders fade together.<\/p>\n<p>Visualizing Biome Blends:<\/p>\n<p>Biome Blend: OFF &#8211; Shows the raw, un-blurred Spatial Jitter.<br \/>\n![No biome blend](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/e5df56056139bc4e3cb13cebd4d54d9df43de1cd.png)<\/p>\n<p>Biome Blend: 5&#215;5 &#8211; A standard, smooth fade between the transplanted biome and the surrounding world.<br \/>\n![Biome blend 5&#215;5](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/ec0e075c46df0dd9499bd9c3ac1f6d8445760f8d.png)<\/p>\n<p>Biome Blend: 9&#215;9 &#8211; A massive, gradual gradient between the biomes.<br \/>\n![Biome blend 9&#215;9](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/00843535811ec7e5e6e3e98a7defc8f37b91b12e.png)<\/p>\n<p>Biome Blend: 15&#215;15 &#8211; A massive, gradual gradient between the biomes.<br \/>\n![Biome blend 15&#215;15](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/0be481f3ce7d568fa2c5be1a3db50a659da78eb7.png)<\/p>\n<p>\u2699\ufe0f Installation &#038; Compatibility<\/p>\n<p>Requires Fabric API (if playing on Fabric).<\/p>\n<p>Built natively for Minecraft 26.1.x (Supports 26.1.0, 26.1.1, and 26.1.2) and 1.21\/1.21.1.<\/p>\n<p>I will be working on backporting it to 1.21.x, starting with 1.21.1.
