Well hello chapters Commodore gram here and welcome to a little video I thought I’d do about a mod called alternate terrain generation version 2.0 I believe of this mod has just come out it’s the first version that I’ve seen I saw a reddit post about it and I was suitably Impressed so I thought I’d do a little video about it now the first thing that you’re going to notice here is that the landscape is tall hills and mountains are a hell of a lot bigger and just generally look much more impressive let’s call for a little bit of a wander If one can describe huh I didn’t even know that was that if one can describe flying through the air is wandering and another little feature here see these cliffs cliffs are certainly a thing you see it’s a lot more kind of defined than Minecraft cliffs are and you know I have Not explored this very much myself so you’re finding out about it with me then is B&C I mean Jesus look at the size of this Valley look at the scope of it look at how much more natural it looks than vanilla minecraft an aside from the hills themselves being very tall what You’ll notice is there’s far more sort of sustained terrain height going on so if it comes up from the sea it’ll come up and then it’ll ill kinda stay up for a long time you might notice that there isn’t really much going on in the way of rivers the Person who made the mod hasn’t really got that figured out yet now the thing with vanilla torreón generation is it just puts all the rivers at at sea level which is a very easy thing to do but when you’re working with something like this it’s a lot more complicated while this looks fantastic Let’s let’s come down a little incidentally apparently this terrain generates faster than vanilla renders that doesn’t necessarily mean your chunks will load faster but the terrain will generate faster or at least under some circumstances as you can see the oh wow as you can see the beaches can stretch On for a very long while what do we have here do we have some maser archipelago of islands over there no this is the what is this where are we hold on tundra this is a tundra biome apparently let’s continue so yeah if you can run regular minecraft You will be able to run this mod with no problems at all this is the Oh another another quite fantastic cliff along here looks pretty legit yeah if you can run an ordinary Minecraft 2 you will be able to run this you only need this one mod it doesn’t have any dependencies you Don’t need to install any cord libraries or what have you now imagine building something on this terrain and having the views that you’d have because that’s the thing what one of the major things in minecraft is finding a suitably epic spot for your builds and there’s not really necessarily always Too much to be found that’s all that epic or you might need to go searching for a long while but but this stuff I mean look at this it’s insane now I think hold on a speed of a little This is a gravel beach ah I do believe it is let’s go and have a look and it behooves us to look at some of this from from ground level in any case so yeah we have gravel beaches here I don’t know if that’s at all normal let’s get a little higher up Again tastic sort of inlets Lagoon beach type of Area here yeah it’s so good um so I think what I’m going to do is set myself down Right set it back to the start of the day and gone and to have a look at all look that from here that looks damn tasty yeah let’s go and have a look at the at the details so you should presently be able to see okay hopefully you can See my desktop now so he is the original reddit post I’ll put all these links in the item description by the way the original post-its he’s talking about the new features like the cliffs that we saw better distribution of biomes more flat ground so good for building I guess more Hot and cold areas easy to find jungles better swamps better in what way I don’t want very dramatic maze room by plat or biomes which he details in some of these screenshots actually nor rivers as I mentioned because all of the hills make it a lot harder to actually make rivers Than vanilla where it’s all just a bunch of water at at sea level hard to find red sand because you find it near sea level and lots of land is higher than sea level you know there’s a lot of very elevated land in this mod so else some technical stuff about external biomes And ID conflicts and stuff this is not stuff that I understand unfortunately so apologies for that if I flick through a few of the images here oh okay he is some of the the mazes this going the Lord apparently this doesn’t want to Lord right now I’m not really quite sure Let’s not worry about it he recommends that you well he is the the curse page but he recommends using the specific file which you find at this link here just to make sure that you get the new version 2.0 point zero which runs on minecraft one point ten point Two so it’s relatively up to date there’s the author T TF t cuts or however that’s supposed to be pronounced thank you very much for making this it is quite stunning and what else did I want to cover oh yes if I go into curse All I did to make this is I made a custom profile you just click on here select the version that you want in this case it’s one point ten point two give it a name I just called it alternate terrain generation well I called it the Obvious and then you just grab the file the alternate terrain generation file I have Optifine installed here as well so I can have shaders but you just grab the file that you’ve downloaded click on the ellipsis here go to open folder give me that go into mods and just drop the File here this is the alternate terrain generation file just drop it in there and there’s one other thing you need to do in order to in order to get it to work let’s go back into the game did you do to do right give me just a Moment whilst I get this sorted the screen may go black for a second oh and we have rain which looks pretty fantastic in this shader pack except for the blue splashes I guess I have to turn off those blue particle splashes because they kind of spoil the effects a lot but Anyway the other thing that you have to do if we go back to the title screen when you start a game and make new world a new world – whatever going to world options and in world type just keep clicking through until you get to a TG Alternate and then you’ll get the this alternate terrain generation otherwise it probably won’t work I’m not going to create a new world right now in case it sort of lags out my recording or something but yeah that’s a bat about it really I suggest that you try it out yourself It’s very pretty it’s a good backdrop for whatever builds so you might want to get going that’s it this may actually end up being the start of a series where I take a mod each week or something and go into it a little bit this one was Very easy because I just went oh look at the pretty landscape but I’m a carry on with this we’ll see anyway that’s it for now I hope you enjoyed the video if you did do click the like button it helps out Roth or a lot share it with
