Cliff under a Branch
Cliff under a Branch or CliffBranch, is a worldgen datapack that improves on the vanilla overworld by adding new biomes and bringing several changes to all parts of the generation, all while trying to keep to the spirit of vanilla minecraft
Features
New biomes
From the vast Tundras to the cozy Oasis. CliffBranch introduces new biomes to discover with new sights to behold, across all temperature ranges and all terrain types
Improves the vanilla biomes
The vanilla biomes got a glow up, with revamp takes on them, and improved biome distribution. Biomes like Savanna Plateau with terracotta, the pale garden generating at more terrain heights, and the Mushroom Fields with elevated terrain and mud.
New rivers, improved water and fog colors, and deeper oceans
This pack alters almost all biomes water and fog colors to better match with the direction of newer biomes and match closer to bedrock edition, it also features new river types for the different temperatures to accomodate this changes, as well as deeper oceans that reach deepslate or even further in trenches with magma and basalt
Major changes to caves
CliffBranch implements drastic changes to caves, block light changes color in many of the biomes, there's more fog in them, and now surface biomes will no longer extend deep into the underground thanks to the addition of generic cave biomes all based on temperature, it also doubles the amount of spaghetti caves to make cave exploration last longer
Other gameplay effects
A couple of gameplay related changes come with the changes made by the datapack, this includes changes to the rate of specific mobs in certain biomes, saplings growing to the shapes you will see around the world, or the night getting darker based on the moon cycle
This datapack is a development fork from CliffTree created by Konci and Walls(me) which has been massively modified, ship of Theseus style, for over a year

[4.3_beta_2] Cliff under a Branch (CliffBranch) 4.3 beta 2
by Walls on Oct 16, 2026
Download
- Added colored badlands
- Peak badlands biomes with a lot of different and unique terracotta colors
- Fixed the ocean features not generating, now the ocean will feature its unique terrain again
- Added large rocks around cliffs, this very square looking rocks will generate at terrain inclinations to give more shape to the terrain
- Improved the sulfur badlands generation with unique terracotta colors
- Changed the fog color of warm biomes
- Fixed cocoa generating at age 0 in jungle trees, now it will generate at age 2 as intended
- Changed the ice caves snowflake particles to freezing particles and implemented the new crevices
- Added cinnabar to the inferno caves generation, it will generate along with the magma blocks to help show off the shapes of the magma veins

- implemented internally the use of dedicated blockstate providers jsons to handle multiple parts of the generation
- made dripstone cave generate where sulfur caves took over their place before
- Frozen cave has been merged with the ice cave
- Changed the ceiling features to use ice crystals instead of glow lichen
- Gave the cave special new material rule:
- compared to vanilla's ice cave, it keeps a better balance of packed ice and stone/deepslate
- leans towards a more vertical spread
- it has a bias against covering the floor
- Made the small frozen lakes from the frozen caves also include frosted ice (the ice from frost walker) so it melts faster when exposed to light
- Changed the shape of the stone/deepslate placement around ores to have a noisier look so it looks like rocks held in the ice rather than painted in the ice
- Blue ice forms in shapes similar to glowstone on aquifers
- Multiple fixes and adjustments
- Cobweb no longer appears slightly buried in the ceiling
- the ice rocks from the snowy taiga now have calcite instead of blue ice
- sea pickles stop generating out of the water next to lukewarm oceans
- Made the sky and fog colors during the sunset purple to contrast with the orange sky light over blocks
- Juncts placement slightly adjusted

Update brings small tweaks and performance improvements
Update brings small tweaks and performance improvements
- Fallen logs and multiple trees can now generate shelf mushrooms
- Reduced the number of fallen logs in Dappled forests
- Improved the placement of magma, basalt and lava pockets in the inferno caves
- Desert Caves terracotta has been changed along with plenty of the biome has been reduced to look less exaggerated and more fitting as a common cave biome

## Cliffbranch 4.0
Updated to 26.3 the wilderness bound drop, with this drop it comes the addition of the new dappled forest, and as such cliffbranch adjusts it placement and features, as well as adding a snowy variant of it. Like mentioned in the prior changelog, I looked into surface sulfur, so now there's the sulfur badlands to fill that niche
26.3 also made plenty of technical changes to worldgen datapacks, because of it there has been a lot of internal sorting and changes from the prior version

26.3 also made plenty of technical changes to worldgen datapacks, because of it there has been a lot of internal sorting and changes from the prior version
- Dappled forest from 26.3 are now part of the world generation:
- Compared to vanilla they generate at medium humidity/vegetation, this means they generate larger and next to forests and taigas
- Higher amount of vegetation
- Added berry bushes and pumpkins

- Added sulfur badlands
- Sulfur variant of the badlands that generates between the badlands away from rivers
- Features sulfur pools
- Features terrain of sulfur, cinnabar, granite, and tuff mixed with badlands bandlands
- Features slightly greener fog
- Sparse forest:
- Sparse forest has been pushed to generate more often around lower erosion in flatter terrain, it can still generate around mountains but only in the lukewarm ranges
- Adjusted the placement of trees
- Added big massive rocks ressembling the ones from the fatelands from Minecraft Legends
- Adjusted the grass color to be slightly colder
- Added more flowers
- Added firefly bushes
- Snowy plains:

- Old growth taigas can now generate in shattered terrain
- Wooded and Coniferous badlands are now more common
- Adjusted the placement of the pillars terrain and biomes around them
- Taiga coarse dirt and spruce trees can leak into plains, forests, and birch forests
- Added groups of lilypads that try to generate in constellations in rivers and swamps
- Reduced the number of rocks in the tundra
- Adjusted the placement of pools in the cherry grove to look for flat terrain
- Removed the higher placement of coal in lush caves, this is because it didn't align with why I had more coal in specific biomes
- Removed the big shelf mushrooms from mushroom islands, they didn't align with my rules when it comes to features of that kind
- Increased the chance of finding suspicious sand in beaches significantly
- Removed the special carvers in the inferno caves they
- Removed the chance for camels to generate next to desert temples
- Changed the shapes of the rocks to hand made premade ones

## Cliffbranch 3.0
In this update I am changing the namespace of the datapack from clifftree to cliffbranch, I originally kept the old namespace from clifftree to avoid potential development issues for myself as well as I wasn't planning to keep this fork for that long.
This update also removes the shipwreck and igloo overhaul as those felt out of scope for this datapack as well as didn't felt they met my vision of the datapack. I may consider making proper overhaul of this structures and others for future datapacks.

- Environmental attributes changes:
- Deepdark adjusted to have more teal colors in its atmosphere
- Mushroom caves are brighter
- The night fog is bluer
- Common fog is slightly darker blue
- Biome distribution changes:
- Sulfur caves from 26.2 are now part of the world generation
- Compared to vanilla they can also generate in mountainous regions
- at the moment they can't generate in the surface, I am considering enabling this, but it is technically a bug in vanilla and it would be more work for me to replicate it, as well as I don't like the implementation in vanilla
- Added the jungle slopes
- Jungle biome located around stony peaks
- It has a colder color scheme with terracotta and dense fog
- Adjusted the deepdark to generate bellow mushroom islands
- Minor adjustments around the pillars terrain
- Birch trees and mega spruce now generate branches

- Minor adjustments to the pillars terrain
- Azalea trees now only generate jungle wood on jungle biomes and oasis
- Cherry grove's water pools now look for flat terrain in order to generate
- The extra coal ore from lush caves is now restricted to the sulfur caves
- Deepslate ores can now generate in basalt like the basalt shores
- Removed pumpkins from jungles
- Removes bamboo from sparse jungles
- Spore blossoms will now only generate from bonemealing moss in lush caves
- Dirt can now generate again exposed to air, a 50% chance for it giving it a noisy look in caves
- Mushroom islands and stone ocean terrain has been reworked, you will spot gravel shores and islands in the stone oceans
- Stone ocean spikes are significantly more common
- Emerald ore won't generate bellow y-8 and in deep caves, to make their rarity closer to vanilla
- Expanded the rocky formations of the kelp forest into all ocean types
- Removed the smooth sandstone from the rocky formations of the kelp forest
- Sulfur caves changes:
- Raised the amount of iron and coal ore generated to compensate the sulfur
- Sulfur springs generate significantly more on badlands biomes
- Sulfur pools can generate geysers
- Lichen generates more on top of sulfur blocks
- There's a higher amount of creeper spawn compared to vanilla
- Fixes:
- Fixed sunflower plains lacking flowers
- Fixed jungle saplings not generating both variants of the small jungle tree as well
- Fixed jungle trees on world generation placing cocoa beans at the incorrect spot
- Fixed mineshafts not generating in deep caves
