Artemis Better Biomes Mod Wiki & Guide

Yes, you should start a new world to experience all the biome transformations, sky colors, and terrain generation changes. Existing chunks in old worlds won't have the mod's improvements unless you explore new terrain.

The mod is designed to improve performance, especially in mangrove swamps where it reduces lag. Most players see stable or better frame rates, though performance depends on your hardware and other mods you're running.

Compatibility depends on which mods you're using—some biome mods work fine together while others conflict over terrain generation. Test by adding mods one at a time and checking if biomes generate correctly.

Each biome has its own custom sky colors, fog effects, and lighting to match its theme—forests are darker and greener, mountains are brighter, and swamps have unique atmospheric effects. This is intentional and makes each biome feel distinct.
