Description
Don't want any of the newer minecraft nether features and content? Then this is the mod for you!, Just Beta Nether is a mod that aims to recreate the Nether that existed before the 1.16 update. This mod removes all the the newer mobs, structures, and loot tables added after 1.16. This mod is intended for people who want to revisit the old Nether Dimension of Minecraft again.
Nostalgia
For the best nostalgic experience, I recommend using the Nostalgic Tweaks mod by Adrenix which includes many faithful recreations of old minecraft features alonside the Golden Days resource pack by PoeticRainbow. Additionally, using the Modern Beta mod by b3spectacled brings back the old nostalgic terrain generation.
