Sensible Biomes

WARNING: this pack includes the new Pale Garden biome but that requires to install the winter drop preview datapack, available in the datapack window and as an experimental option (both work); Sensible Biomes won't work if you don't add the winter drop preview.

Sensible Biomes attempts to fix some of the most disliked features of vanilla world generation without taking away the vanilla feel: no new structures or weird trees, but a much better arrangement of what vanilla already offers.

• 55 new biomes help transitioning between vanilla ones (instead of hard borders where everything changes in a matter of a few blocks) and adding variety to biomes that only come in 1-2 versions in vanilla
• smooth transitions between 7 different climate zones and vegetation types (instead of random "biome bubbles" made of plains turning into forests turning into plains forever until boom! desert)
• mostly flat beaches  (instead of sand climbing up hills)
• beaches and caves in many different materials (instead of just sand or random stone splotches)
• larger biomes, but not as large as Large Biomes mode
• smoother terrain and less caves swiss-cheesing the surface
• no new structures or blocks, aside from bushes from different plants (why not), so you're still getting a vanilla experience

Transitions help find the biomes you're searcing for. Need a jungle? Go where vegetation gets thicker and thicker while plants change to more tropical species. Better than running in a random direction!
