DatapacksJava
Village Ruins - 80% Abandoned Villages
Java data pack listed for Minecraft 26.x. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
This datapack converts roughly 80% of vanilla villages into abandoned zombie villages in plains, desert, savanna, snowy, and taiga biomes. It uses only vanilla worldgen template pools, so no mods are required, and it’s fully compatible with servers and modpacks. Perfect for making your worlds feel more dangerous, empty, and post-apocalyptic.
