Part of the Nostalgica Reverie project

Welcome to Modern*er* Beta! This is a fork of [b3spectacled's Modern Beta](https://github.com/b3spectacled/modern-beta-fabric) that started out as a [pull request](https://github.com/b3spectacled/modern-beta-fabric/pull/137) but due to the original creator's inactivity has been published as a fork. Alongside all of the world generation options from Modern Beta, this fork adds in world generators from Beta 1.8 all the way up to Release 1.17 which are highly customisable with plenty of configuration options. The goal of this fork now is to pick Modern Beta's development back up and add in extra features. ## Notice Moderner Beta 5.0.0 is currently in alpha. There may be bugs and issues, and can be prone to breaking with future releases. 4.1.x will continue to be supported until 5.0.0 exits development. Development may take quite some time. If you could help, then please consider applying as a developer [here](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSftC3Sl78p2v26ywvxaYFDBNq_7AFzFZkQ2fu0vOVDiTAN8lg/viewform?usp=dialog). ## How to Report Issues Please use the issue tracker linked at the top of the page if you are experiencing bugs, crashes, or other issues. ## Nostalgica Reverie Consider joining the [Nostalgica Reverie Discord](https://discord.gg/6pRkrYxbGW) for sneak peeks and updates on development!

For a beta-style look, use a resource pack like [Golden Days](https://modrinth.com/resourcepack/golden-days) and use [Nostalgic Tweaks](https://modrinth.com/mod/nostalgic-tweaks) to further restore old mechanics and visuals.
