**Biome Replacer** is a simple and easy-to-use utility mod for removing unwanted biomes<\/p>\n

## Features<\/p>\n

– **Easy configuration:** Simple properties file with intuitive syntax
\n– **Designed for datapacks** Configure Terralith or other worldgen packs with ease*
\n– **(Limited) mod integration:** Remove biomes from a mod that has no configuration of its own**
\n– **Server-side:** No client installation needed (unless you want to use it in singleplayer, of course!)
\n– **High availability:** From 1.18.2 up to the most current Minecraft version, all equally supported
\n– **Negligible performance impact:** Runs only once on world start, does not slow down the generation<\/p>\n

*Please note that Biome Replacer **cannot change terrain shape**. This means that it’s impossible
\nto change oceans to land, create ocean-only worlds, etc.<\/p>\n

**The only currently supported biome libraries are TerraBlender & Blueprint, so you won’t be able to change Biolith biomes,
\nfor example. Still, BR should not break, and will work fine alongside most world generation mods.<\/p>\n

## Setup<\/p>\n

1. Install the mod, then run your client\/server once to generate configuration file
\n2. Find `biome_replacer.properties` in the `config` folder
\n3. Add your replacement rules (see examples below), then load up the world <\/p>\n

If you made any mistakes, you will see warnings in chat. Check for typos in your biome IDs, and try again.<\/p>\n

Tip: on client, you don’t deed to restart the game every time you change your rules, you can simply leave and enter the world again.<\/p>\n

## Examples<\/p>\n

Rules follow the format `old_biome > new_biome`. Here is an example with vanilla biomes:
\n“`
\nminecraft:dark_forest > minecraft:cherry_grove
\n“`<\/p>\n

\n \"Dark\n<\/div>\n

Using biome tags is supported:
\n“`
\n#minecraft:is_forest > minecraft:desert
\n“`<\/p>\n

\n \"Two\n<\/div>\n

it’s possible to completely remove biomes using a “null” keyword. For example, these rules will remove Terralith’s skylands:
\n“`
\nterralith:skylands_autumn > null
\nterralith:skylands_winter > null
\nterralith:skylands_spring > null
\nterralith:skylands_summer > null
\n“`
\nYou can also use a biome tag to achieve the same effect:
\n“`
\n#terralith:skylands > null
\n“`
\nImportant: if you’re not careful, using this method on biomes from vanilla and datapacks can cause crashes, or mess up biome distribution.
\nPlease **test thoroughly** before using it in a world you care about!<\/p>\n

\n \"Sky\n<\/div>\n

### Advanced features<\/p>\n

To target specific dimensions, use headers with dimension ID: `[mod:dimension]`. Rules following it will only be applied to a specified dimension.
\n(Note that this typically isn’t needed, unless you have custom dimensions that generate the same biomes, and you want to target only one of them)<\/p>\n

“`
\n[minecraft:overworld]
\nminecraft:desert > null<\/p>\n

[custom:dimension]
\nminecraft:desert > minecraft:badlands
\n“`<\/p>\n
