Custom Objects (BO3)
One of the most significant visual changes in Vanilla Vistas is the replacement of vanilla "decorations" with Custom Objects (BO3). These are pre-built structures made of vanilla blocks that OTG spawns during world generation.
- Trees: Features hundreds of custom tree models, including massive oaks, realistic pines, and sprawling jungle canopies. These trees are designed to look more natural than the standard procedural vanilla trees.
- Rocks & Boulders: Scattered throughout the landscape are custom rock formations and boulders made of stone, andesite, and granite, adding texture to plains and mountains.
- Lakes & Springs: Small, naturally shaped ponds and water features replace the often-clunky vanilla water pockets.
- Coastal Features: Includes coastal rocks, idyllic beaches, and stone shores that transition smoothly into the ocean.
