Configuring Continents with the Large Biomes World Type
Selecting Large Biomes at World Creation
Continents is fully compatible with vanilla Minecraft's Large Biomes world type. Combining them creates an expansive planetary scale with massive oceans and sprawling continental landmasses.
1. Select Create New World in the Singleplayer menu.
2. Access the Data Packs menu and ensure the Continents data pack is enabled.
3. Click Done to return to world setup.
4. Navigate to the World tab.
5. Click on World Type until it displays Large Biomes.
6. Select Create New World.
Navigating Expansive Ocean Worlds
Using Large Biomes alongside Continents alters how you approach exploration:
- Massive Landmasses: The continents generated under this setup are vastly expanded, offering extensive territory before you ever encounter a coast.
- Expansive Sea Routes: The oceans separating landmasses scale up accordingly, turning ocean crossings into lengthy voyages across open water.
- Chained Archipelagos: Island chains stretch much farther, offering pitstops across huge ocean stretches.
Before venturing off your starting landmass in a Large Biomes world, craft multiple boats and gather sufficient food, as reaching neighboring continents will require navigating extensive bodies of water.
