Started from a clean slate and got it working

That's a feature

it's a feature ™️

Oh the exposed stone? Yeah I know that's a thing in vanilla worlds

We aren't looking to be 100% faithful to the original, qe aren't a port

I know you aren't but I am ;)

Good luck! Would.be cool if you got it close to original and use it with the legacy textures

Thanks! Right now I'm trying to replicate the tree density of Aether I, using a few screenshots I took such as this one for reference

So I managed to do it but now Tech Reborn rubber trees are spawning in the Aether

I believe that's an issue with TechReborn

btw, anyone know what the "category" field does in biome jsons? I can't find anything on it on the MC wiki besides options that are valid for it

I've looked online, and it seems the category field does not do much, other than provide a category.

it might be something to do with adjacency rules but it probably doesn't matter for the way we do the aether

its a way to ttell the biome category, its useful for when in code you need to know the type of biome it is, like for example knowuing all types of end biomes or nether biomes could be usefull for a nether generator

It's used for spawn restrictions as well, IIRC.(edited)
