How to Find Each End Stone Biome Variant
Reaching the Outer End Biomes
The Dungeons End Stone Resource Pack changes the visual look of vanilla End stone depending on the specific End biome you are exploring. While the central End island belongs to a single default biome, the outer floating islands split into three distinct zones that trigger the pack's different textures.
1. Defeat the Ender Dragon and enter the End Gateway portal, or bridge outward from the main island across the void until you reach the outer ring of floating islands.
2. Press F3 to open the vanilla debug screen and locate the Biome line on the left side of the overlay.
3. Walk across a large outer End island while watching the biome readout to see why the ground beneath you changes appearance.
Identifying the Three Layered Zones
Because the outer End biomes naturally generate directly next to one another, you can observe all three block variants on a single large island:
- End Highlands: Found on the highest hilltops and central plateaus of large islands. End stone placed or generated here displays the highlands variant.
- End Midlands: Generated on the sloped, terraced terrain stepping down from the highlands toward the coast of the island.
- End Barrens: Found along the flat outer edges of large islands and across small, isolated floating islands over the void.
Where these three zones meet, the pack's connected textures automatically blend the borders to create a terraced, layered transition.
