Rediscovered Mod - [1.7.10 - 1.16.5] - Unused, Unimplemented, and Removed Features back into Minecraft

📚 Summary

Welcome to the Rediscovered Mod! The purpose of this modification is to add in anything that has been unused, unimplemented, or removed from Minecraft's files! It covers a wide variety of topics that could have made it into the vanilla game but sadly, did not. In fact, that is one of the goals for this mod! To possibly see some of these features added into the vanilla game!


☁️ Sky Dimension

The Sky Dimension was a planned dimension in Minecraft, intended to be the opposite of the Nether. Using the buffet world generation option, a player can generate a partial recreation of the original concept. -- from Minecraft Wiki, Java Edition mentioned features/Sky dimension

In this mod, for the Sky dimension, it is using the same noise generator as it did in Minecraft beta, so the World Generation is exactly identical as it would've been.

Cherry Trees were mentioned to be added in the 1.7 "World-Changing" Update, but never were. In this mod, Cherry trees generate in the Sky Dimension

How do I get to this dimension?

You can get to the Sky dimension by crafting a Dream Pillow and then right clicking on a Minecraft bed at night. You can craft this by putting Glowstone Dust in the middle and then surrounding Blue Wool all around it.

Ruby

Rubies were changed to emeralds because Dinnerbone is red-green colorblind and couldn't tell the difference between redstone ore and ruby ore, so it was changed at the last minute. Rubies generate in the overworld. It's rarity is similar to gold ore but is in smaller veins.


💱 Trading with Pigman

You can trade with the Pigman in the Sky dimension. Their trades are designed to be more fair and you can obtain classic wool colors.

👺 Mobs

The first four mobs below are MD3 models. On Notch's blog, he talked about their design on this post. You can also find information about those Steve, Black Steve, Beast Boy, and Rana on this section of Minecraft Wiki. All of the mobs you see below were either in the game at some point during development, completly scrapped, removed, or was planned but never happened.
