Welcome to the skylands.

The skylands is a new dimension which consists of infinite floating islands made of dirt, terracotta and all other normal ores.

The skylands is inspired by the end dimension and creates a new dimension which is reminiscent of both the end and the overworld but with a little twist. The intention of this datapack is to create an original experience with mid to end game content.

The datapack is in very early development and currently features 3 new biomes and one vanilla biome.

Biomes

Sky Plains
  • The sky variant of the overworld plains biome
  • The most common sky biome
  • Has blue grass and purple sky/leaves
  • Has berry bushes
  • Never has lava lakes
  • Occasionally has trees

Sky Forest
  • The sky variant of the overworld forest biome
  • The second most common sky biome
  • Has blue grass and purple sky/leaves
  • Has mostly custom trees and a few vanilla trees
  • Never has lava lakes


Sky Jungle

  • The sky variant of the overworld jungle biome
  • Currently only has bushes but will have tall custom jungle trees
  • The rarest sky biome
  • Has purple grass and leaves
  • Never has lava lakes
  • The Sky Jungle looks best with max biome blend settings
  • Mushroom Fields
  • Just the standard vanilla mushroom fields biome

Upcoming Features
  • Custom Crafting table and recipes
  • Custom weapons and abilities
  • portal to teleport to the new dimension
  • Custom mobs and bosses
  • Custom Structures
  • Lore

Known Bugs

  • Mineshafts spawn underneath the islands in mushroom biomes


Accessing the Dimension

Now you can access the skyands by flying up to y = 200. You can also leave the skylands by falling to y = -20.

You can still access this dimension is by using commands with cheats enabled/on a server. You can enable cheats on a world by opening it to LAN. Run the following command to enter the skylands but be careful asyou might teleport in the sky and fall do you death.

Hi THIS IS A VERY COOL DATAPACK and I really like it).

So I would like to give a couple of tips for further development:

1: No portal needed. Now it's just a great way to get to the island. (only as for me it will be better to make a teleport with a height of 250, because because of 200 many tall buildings, it will not be possible to joke, and this will interfere with flying on the airplane.

2: No need for a special workbench. Let new items and crafts be created on a regular workbench. Since the new workbench will make the datapack harder and more difficult for non-bulk players to understand.

3: New flying dungeons (here everything is already clear)

It seems that I wrote everything, if there are mistakes, then I'm just Russian by nationality and I can make mistakes /

WAIT FOR UPDATES

Thanks for the feedback.
I have recently decided to not use a portal and keep it so that the dimension cannot be accessed without the elytra, and I will change the y level to above 250 ( I forgot that build height limit was greater than 200 lol )
Regarding the crafting table, with datapacks we cannot add recipes for custom items to the vanilla crafting table. This means that to have any kind of custom crafting I need to create a special workbench. If it was up to me, I would use the vanilla table.
And the flyting dungeons is a great idea, I've been trying to design structures/dungeons for the dimension and I'd appreciate any suggestions on them

Thanks, I just looked it up and it is kinda similar. I can't believe I have never heard of such a popular mod. Luckily my plans don't seem to be similar to the aether besides the sky island world type. Thanks for letting me know!
